Mr. and Mrs. Hoskins
Are Given Surprise
The new home of Mr. and Mrs.
Dwight Hoskins in the Edgewood
development was the scene of a
delightful Valentine party that
turned out to be much more than
the usual such party last Friday
night.
Mrs. Hoskins, chairman of the
social committee of the Fellow
ship Forum of the Church of Wide
Fellowship, had planned the party
for Forum members, but said
members had been doing some
planning of their own.
The group of approximately 30
played bingo for a while, and at
the conclusion of the game, when
it was time to serve the refresh
ments brought by members who
wanted to help, knowing that
Mrs. Hoskins had been busy with
her moving, the guests took over.
A huge Valentine box was
brought in and presented to Mr.
and Mrs. Hoskins, who found that
it contained a “pounding” of pan
try supplies. Mrs. James Prim
then read a poem which she had
written to accompany a sum <5f
money from the Forum, with
which to purchase a gift of the
couple’s choosing for their home.
R. W. Tate read a second poem,
written to the Hoskins’ and their
home.
Finally the group got aroiuid to
enjoying the refreshments of
sandwiches, cookies and tea.

Sock Dance Is
Fine Success
Complete cooperation, no mix-

very pleasant evening is the re

gymnasium last Saturday evening.

unmarred until after the basket
ball season, the Betas required
that shoes be checked in the lob
by, and this only added to the
gaiety of the evening.
Red hearts were pinned upon
guests, just before they were ush
ered into the gymnasium, which
was decorated with large paper
hearts along the walls and red
and white crepe paper streamers
between the baskets. Valentine
favors were given and refresh
ments were sold, to add to the
Beta club’s treasury.
