Rebekahs Give Double Shower to the Newlyweds.

Mrs. Thos. J. Hoyes and Mrs. Burley Harrod and husbands were the central figures in a neatly planned and executed miscellaneous shower at the I. O. O. F. hall last Friday evening. The couples are the most recent newlyweds in the Rebekah lodge, to Which the brides, who were formerly Miss Florence Moore and. Miss Lucy Morganegg, belonged, and of which Miss Moore, now Mrs. Hoyes, is the Noble Grand. After the regular session of the lodge Friday evening the members went to the banquet room, leaving the newlyweds behind. A few moments later, however, they were ushered to the banquet room by Miss Pearl Comer, the Vice Grand, and Mis® Agnes Platt, while Job Overton, Art Bafctleday and George E. Collins carried two clothes baskets filled with presents. The guests of honor were seated in the center of the room, surrounded by the other members and the baskets presented to them. Every package was tied in white paper with baby ribbon. The members pas.-' around and offered their congratulations and best wishes and then followed, serving of refreshments. The presents were numerous and of a great variety and the occasion proved a very pleasant one socially.
