Friends are our most valuable
posessions. Friendship was the inspir-
ation of a most charming social
function Thursday evening, December
1st.
In response to the invitation of Mrs.
F. L. Woodward, a number of friends
arrived at her home where tables had
been arranged for forty-two. The
hom*o was decorated in keeping with
the late autumn and early winter sea-
son. Floor baskets and vases filled
with autumn leaves and evergreens
adorned the living room and library.
A big log fire burned in the open fire-
place, giving the living room an at-
mosphere of cordial hospitality.
After several games of forty-two,
the guests were invited into the din-
ing room where a beautiful scene met
their eyes. The red lights and candles
in silver candle sticks gave a subdued
light over the room revealing the
table which had been converted into
a most attractive snow scene with a
snow man as the central figure as if
he had just walked up leaving his
tracks in the snow. On investigation
Miss Fannie Stone found the tracks
contained letters which read "Follow
the tracks." These led to the snow
, man and he held a message "Happy
birthday," which was a complete sur-
prise to Mi.su Fannie, having no in-
jtimation that anyone present knew
of her birthday. Mrs. Woodward
placed before her a beautiful three
tie cake elaborately decorated in pink
land yellow roses and green foliage,
i This was topped with one candle
representing the seventy-four useful
, and helpful years not only to her
friends, but to the youth and adults.
She was school room teacher for
¡forty-two years and is now teacher of
i the Woman's Bible Class at the
jMethodist Sunday School.
Since childhood she has been a
valuable member in all church activi-
ties.
Many toasts and good wishes were
given to Miss Fannie. This one from
•the hostes:
¡ "Believing hero your birthday as
my own is to me is dear;
lile ed our distinguished days
which we should pi iv.e
| The best, the kindest beauties of
the skies,
I But yours gave most for mine did
only lend me to the world;
I Your.- gave to me a friend."
A generous shower 'of gifts wfls
pr< .-enteil to Mi- - Fannie a* an evi-
dence .if tlu love and estee.n in which
she is ludd. She accepted them most
graciously expressing her appre-
ciation for these beautiful expressions
of love.
The following guests, were present:
The honorec, Miss Fannie Stone, Rev.
and Mrs. W K. Ha lor. Elizabeth and
John. Mr. and M•• M. Smith. Mrs.

There are ee
tain phji :
the present situ;
tion that i«-, ¡¡
not reassu.in
The motion pi
■ ure largely ouerrte.- in the direction
of undermining ,l taste and thought
of the nation. The automobile makes
ti: a va ' compunj of speeding gad-
abouts in resiles, motion. And the
radio places us at. the mercy of jazz
bauds, crooners, and similar vulgari-
ti s of high orí ■ ure salesmanship.
On the other hand, there are un-
doubted possibilities for good in these
machine made sources of recreation.
The movie theatre is certainly prefer-
able to the soloon, and there are pic-
tures beyond criticism both from the
standpoint of art and character build-
ing. The autonibile has revived the
old-fashioned family outing, promoting
shared recreation in the out-of-doors.
And the radio enables us to listen to
symphony concerts, addresses, and
inspiring church services.
The problem, then, becomes one of
choice. We must learn to discriminate
between the wholesome and the un
wholesome. One is always on safe
ground if he keeps Jesus and the
Christian ideal in sight. The Golden
Text urges us to do all we do "to the
glory of God." If we follow this ad-
monition, we can never wander far.
Instead of high-powered, exhaust-
ing amusem*nt, we shnll choose simple
restful, health giving fun. Like our
Master, we shall seek contact with
nature as ofi.cn as possible, and culti-
vate a few kindred spirits, whose
friendship can heal and restore our
jaded selves. Moveover, we shall seek
recreation that demands personal par-
ticipation rather than passive inspec-
tion.
"Come away, all of you," said the
Master, "to a quiet place, and rcat
awhile." We all need to escape from
