»y School Classes Give Beau
tiful Reception.
The only large or brilliant event
ef last week came 011 Friday when
f the Fidelis class of the First Baptist
linday school made formal celebra
| tlon of new class officers. In tliis
liss Bernice Barclay demonstrated
Jn her charm as a hostess and
members of her class were af-
forded the privilege of using her
ttmmanding and very beautiful home
j>r an occasion notable in the Sun-
day school year. The §vent took
the form of an evening reception
and found its cause for being in the
desire of Fidelia members to honor
lieir new officials, together with the
1-.Officers and teachers in general of
the Sunday school and the men of
the Christian Comrades class. In-
deed the last named were more than
honoreeg for to tliem was given the
■Ivilege of assisting in tho happy
9uties of extending the courtesies of
"lie evening.
The Barclay home was Just the
[• right place for hospitality onfcsuch
L a night Since it proved to be one of
. the coldest of the year. Great fires
turned in the colonial fireplaces to
pplement the comfort of the rad-
tttors and add the cheery atmosphere
Which only the open fire can give
on a blustery winter night. Tasteful
*nd highly effective touches were
Ipven with crimson carnations and
the foliage plants, of which tho home
has so luxurious a eollectioii Mas-
ter W. A. Barclay Jr., in white satin
Image's suit, gave a continuous con-
cert of Victrola selections from the
favorite operas and singers.
* Miss Barclay stood in line with
the officers of the Fidelis and Chris-
tian Comrade classes led by Mrs.
J. S. Perry, teacher of the former.
Dr. Tull, who has charge of the in-
etruction of the latter was out of the
«ity, meeting a previously mado en-
; gragement, Mrs. R. T. Wilson and
' Miss Annabel Fouts poured tea and
coffee and Misses Ruth Callaway,
Bertha Fouts, and Myra Kilpatrick
served.
Everywhere was good cheer and
whole-souled hospitality, the house-
party was Imposing in number and
handsome In dress, there was beauty
for the eye at every turn. Indeed
Baptist social life was complimented
and complimented royally. For this
all credit goes to Miss Barclay and
Mesdames J. J. Terrlll and Omar
Fletcher, who are with her as mem-
bers of the class social committee.
The personnel of those who re-
ceived and entertained was Mrs. J.
S: Perry, Miss I>eta Nicholson, Mrs.
B. D. Baugh, Mrs. W. C. Hunton,
Miss Grace Gooda, Miss Juanita Wy-
lie, Mrs. A. D. Moore, Miss Grace

Mrs. Tandy and Miss Reed Fay
Courtesy to Saint
Valentine.
Tt was tribute royal which was
paid the patron saint of the 14th
of February when Mrs. Pave Tandy
and Miss Ida Reed were at home
to the young ladies of the G. U. N.
club and their men friends on Fri-
day evening. As room treatment to
honor Cupid's day there were red
hearts everywhere, as door drapery,
fluttering from electric fixtures, even
as mural decorations. The crimson
note was repeated In the carnations
which were used freely- for vase and
basket shower. The love god could
not have failed to recognize his do-
main for his insignia were in evi-
dence at every turn, but beyond
this he had need of all his clever
v.'its, for every man and every maid
appeared in mask. If he had work
to dp he must needs have supernat-
ural powers of discernment, the
which he had, for he Is not blind.
Why hide? It goes without saying,
then, that If he had arrows to shoot,
his aim was good regardless of
whether the victim appeared to have
come from a kingdom or a Gold Dust
can. High carnival reigned until,
no longer incognito, some unusual
games were enjoyed. Of course there
was an archer's contest with hearts
as targets, though the sport' was ac-
celerated In that they were pendant,
not stationary. Each also had a
money value and the coin thus ac-
cumulated was later used for buying
in auction packages. There was a
merry game, where Miss Massle
Wynne and Mr. Clarence Edwards
won trophies, and a heart search, In
which Miss Grace Gonda and Mr,
Cale were winners.
The supper feature repeated the
crimson heart idea and some tempt-
ing bits were served.
Mrs. Tandy and Miss Reed are
graceful in the true sense of the
word in their entertaining, for real
warmth of hospitality is theirs. When
their taste in planning Is added the
success of their parties Is assured.
This valentine event was one of their
happiest efforts; every guest declares
it so. In introducing the fancy dress
feature thev received their guests

son masks. Miss Emerson, as a

Christian AUI in Social Session,
Mesdames J. H. Strange, Ed Brew-
ster and Ed Muschon were the enter-
taining committee which promoted
the very pleasant afternoon of Mon-
day, the regular time of the Christian
Aid's social meeting. The hospitality
of the Strange home gave the occas-
ion its strongest stimulant to enjoy-
ment.
As is always the case when this
church society meets, a large number
made the assemblage. Furthermore,
two new members were added to tho
roll. After the program's rendition
Mesdames Strange, Brewster and
Musehon served a delicious afternoon
luncheon. Another plate than this
was in evidence, the coin plate and
the free will offering was substantial.
These social affairs are pleasant
occasions with the Christian women
a strong impetus to the healthy life of
the church, and are anticipated from
time to time with keenest pleasure.

Templeites Heard Grand Opera In
Austin Yesterday.
Temple sent her percentage of the
audience which heard grand opera In
Austin yesterday, as she always
does when worthy talent appears
in the state, wherever it be and what-
ever its nature. A pity it is we have
not reached the size which brings at-
tractions to our own door for the
number of those who §0 to Pa!!l!,
I Fort Worth, Houston, Austin and
other places annually to see or hear
that which Temple cannot yet have is
astonishing. Not that we would stop
4hem—indeed no, but that wo will
may hear f,rand opera within our ewn
city walls.
There went from Temple yesterday,
mostly by automobile, Mrs. Edna Mc-
Donald, Kit W. 8. Rowland. Mm A.

Westminster ( lass Entertained by Dr.
uiul Mrs. M. OppcnheiBter.
Nearly one hundred members were
present on Thursday evening when
Dr. and Mrs. M. Oppenheimer enter-
tained the Westminster Bible class of
Grace Presbyterian church in the new
Sunday school room of the church on
North Third street. The new room is
large and comfortable, and Mrs. Op-
penheimer made it as cosy and at-
tractive as her own home might have
been. Red carnations and violets
were used to suggest that St. Valen-
tine was en route, and red hearts In
festoon furthered the idea. Gay Jap-
anese lanterns were hung and a gala
atmosphere reigned.
The hosts were assisted by the of-
ficers of the class, Mr. II. C. Glenn,
Mr. John Houghton, Mrs. A. H. Meyer
and Mrs. L. S. Williamson.
There was a program to which
Misses Arny Campbell, Corinne Wall,
Laura Courtney and little Miss Fran-
ces Riddle contributed. Later in the
evening Miss Emily Losee, niece of
Mrs. Oppenheimer, gave a succession
of piano numbers while refreshments
were being served.
None entertain with more cordiality
than Dr. and Mrs. Oppenheimer and
their generous hospitalities are no
small feature of the social life of the
church to which they belong.

Rtide-Elect Is Honored.
Another member of the Southwest-
ern Telephone company's staff is to
be married, which leads to the. belief
that. Cupid has headquarters, at least
temporarily, in that part of the city
where the telephone offices are lo-
cated. Miss Allie Mae Stanton is the
last to succumb to the wiles of the
love god, and her marriage to Mr.
Worley of Hitlsboro will take place
today. Miss Stanton has been chief
operator and has endeared herself to
the young ladies of her staff to the
extent that one of their most generous
courtesies was paid her during the
last week.
Mrs. Stuart Shaw headed those who
planned the pretty attention, and the
home of Mrs. Emma Ogle on North
Third was chosen for the gathering.
Each guest carried a package, some-
thing which a bride would prize, the
wedding cake was cut and its trophies
distributed, Miss Juanita Wylie gave
some humorous readings, dainties
were served—indeed, a well rounded
evening of pleasure was staged.
Miss Stanton received the compli-
ment of her comrades with charac-
teristic appreciation, and the days
ahead will be all the happier for the
memory of this occasion which ex-
pressed the regard in which she la
held.

ing and Lizzie D. Gresham as club
guests and the usual enjoyable tilt at
auction. Mrs. Richard Carlton Curtis
took the high score trophy.
Miss Denison served a delicious

ter, Miss Marie Denison. There were
