The “bride and groom” greet- ed their guests in the living room and were assisted in looking after the pleasure of their friends by their daughters, Mrs. Clem Price Arrange Cabaret 5 Benefit Dance Determined that the Mercedes hospital wil be painted, the Kap- pa Pi Y Club of Key West is plan- ning to secure funds for the work.

He parted his lips to call when he caught sight of her within palm grove, With the machete she was pounding at an ob- fect upon a rock.
