When they arrived, the house was in darkness and find ing "Mehitabel", a dummy with the life-like face of a young girl, dressed in a Mother Hubbard and split bonnet standing before an open fire, which she had appar ently just kindled, and a birthday greeting, card in her extended hand, was to say the least, a wee bit disconcerting. But when the guests began popping up out of the dark ness, Mr. Lippincott realized the dinner was to be in his own cot tage. ' A lovely two-tiered white birth day cake topped with numerous (?) red candles formed the table centerpiece for the delicious tur key dinner. Ten guests enjoyed the occasion.
