Mc Nairy, and Miss Helen Lonon were hostesses at a lovely party giver in Miss Lonon's Studio, on Friday af ternoon, honoring Miss Jeannette Gilkey, whose wedding to Mr. Eu gene Cross, Jr., will take place early in Api-il. This was the first of a series of parties being planned for this popular bride-to-be, whose attractive personality has endeared her to a wide circle of friends. The hostesses sustained their reputation for orig inality and gracious hospitality. The spacious studio was made ev en more attractive with a profusion of ivy and jonquils, the color scheme of green and yellow being further carried out in the refreshments. The tables at which bridge was played, were arranged in the shape of a "Cross", with Miss Gilkey seated in the centre. The tallies were unique, each one being an attractive ar rangement, in color, of the furnish ings of some nook in a small home. At the conclusion of the game, these were presented to Miss Gilkey, l whose wedding plans include the | furnishing of the Pless cottage on ! Rutherford Road for house-keeping. | High score prize, a bridge set, was j awarded to Mrs. Charlie Barnes. | Second prize, dainty salts and pep I pers, went to Miss Bessie Tate. The ' honoree was presented with a hand ! some tall silver pitcher, the gift of | the hostesses and Mrs. Hessie Lonon. Dainty refreshments in two cour ses were served to the fifty guests assembled. The individual cake at * Miss Gilkey's place was topped with I a diminutive bride and groom. The table, at which the bride-to be sat, was made distinctive by a tall ladder-backed chair covered in white, antl tied at the back with a large tulle bow. This formed a very pretty background for Miss Gilkey, whose distinctive beauty was enhanced by her demure costume. Her dress was an attractive model of brown and beige with puffed sleeves of brown taffeta, and having organdie collar ! and jabot. With this she wore a ! quaint hat of brown and beige, and ! brown accessories. In the midst of the merry chatter following refreshments, a negro ! mammy, wearing apron and ban danna, brought to the honoree a large split-bottom clothes basket containing the "first week's wash ing", which proved to be so heavy, | that the bride-to-be was promptly | given advice on how to cut down this : expense. The basket was found to | contain many lovely and useful gifts and Miss Gilkey, in a graceful little I speech, expressed her appreciation. She was the recipient of many ex i pressions of love, and interest in her approaching wedding. STUDY CLUB MEETS WITH MRS.
