The tables had long streamers of crepe paper in red, white and blue down the center and red glasses containing small American flags and bowls of pussy willows alternating. There was a large attendance at the luncheon and many expressed; the hope that the luncheon would be repeated. Members of the Mar- tha Society were well pleased with the patronage the affair received. It has been decided by the or- ganization to hold a rummage sal during the early part of March.
