GAY HOUSE PARTY AT PARR.

Y Misses Maurine Tuteur, Cora Bruner, Ethel and May Clarke. Martha Ramp, Ruth Makeever, Ethel Davis, Esther Padgett, and Marjorie Lough ridge, went to Parr Friday evening on hay ladders, and Saturday morning Misses Lucy Healy, Marion and Edna / Robinson, Ruth Parkison, Madie Drake and Ruth Parikson, Gladys Pierce and Mrs. Kenneth Rhoades took the milk train for the same place to attend a house party given by Miss Ocie Wood. Misses Nellie Sawin and Edna Babcock of Parr joined the crowd on/the arrival at their destination. X On Saturday afternoon and evening they entertained themselves by giving a play at the Wood Hall. Of course nothing is complete at such affairs without some boys near at ( hand, so seventeen young men came up from Rensselaer Sunday for a picnic. They stayed for evening and all left about ten o’clock that night. Cope Hanley and Ted Watson were very good in helping the little hostess prepare and serve dinner for the thirty-five present. Three of the girls returned home Sunday evening on the milk train, but the rest remained until Monday evening. Both boys and girls returned home declaring they had had the time of their vpunglives. Everybody knows what lively young ladies Misses Cora Bruner anj Edna Babcock are, and by their art kept the girls awake until two o’clock the first two nights. They were completely tired Sunday night-and were willing to go to sleep. Miss Blanche Babcock, who is noted around Parr for her culinary skill, assisted Mrs. Wood in cooking for the party.—By One of Those Present.
