MRS. HARRIS TILLEY
HAS GUEST DAY TEA
The Times Club held their fine
arts program and guest day tea at
the home of Mrs. Harris Tilley
Thursday afternon.
Elaborate decorations featured
red tulips and spirea in the living
room. An all white theme was car-
ried out in the dining room. The
table was laid with a cloth of
Mexican drawnwork and centered
with an arrangement of white iris
and spirea, flanked with tapers in
crystal holders.
Guest artists were Miss Joan Bell,
Yes, it’s a fact! Sam’s brood of
two dozen liens are wearing spec-
tacles—which he bought from a
mail-order house in Capitol City.
Sam says it works (and big
poultry raisers say so,.too). The
hens see each other through soft
colored glasses, and instead of
fighting and picking at each other,
they go around placidly, gain
weight, and lay more eggs.
Makes me almost wish we could
have rose-colored glasses for hu-
man beings, too. So that instead of
quarreling and criticizing, like we
do so much of the time, we’d live
and let live in contentment.
From where I sit, the human
race wastes a powerful lot of time
in wrangling over minor Issues .,.
whether a man should drink beer
or cider...whether a woman should
wear slacks or skirts... instead of
seeing each other through “spec-
tacles” of tolerance that enablo
us to live-and-let-live like Sam’s
brood of chickens.
