DOINGS IN SOCIETY Jessie Doris, little daughter of Mr. and Mrs C. C. Wilder, of Monmouth pleasantly entertained a company of little friends for her seventh birthday anniversary. Out-door games were played, followed by refreshments of lee cream and cake. During the afternoon the little celebrant was initiated into a now order of affairs, and as it was strange and unheard of to her, it cannot be said that the party s pleasures were wholly unalloyed. While the little lady, who is a serious little girl, was seated at the table with her guests, she was astounded to see them ail whispering to each other and seemingly all having great merriment but herself. Not being able to understand just why she should be left out. she thought that she must be “being talked about” and immediately the tears began to fall and mingle their saltiness with the sweets of the cream. The strange "goings on” around her reached a climax, however. when the ice cream had all disappeared and her guests rushd at, and overwhelmed her, and dragged her into the bed-room and shoved her. all protesting, under the bed The sobs grew louder and louder and prevailed for nearly an hour until the older ones of the party finally succeeded in explaining that the occurrence was not a conspiracy against her dignity, but an old established custom to those who have "birthdays, and Ulis was what the whispers at the table, when she was left out. meant. The celebrant was given several pretty little gifts. Guests were Margaret Christen. Mary Bauman. Dora Marie and Florence Magley, Hazel Wolford, Merle Marhenke, Jessie Wagoner, Mabel Lewton, Harry Simmers and Edvv ina Wilder. The.
