Won- derful friendship and hospitality are fine and rare things, and I can not help but have great admira- tion for the hostess, who in spite of the fact that the elements do not cooperate—still has a fine and pretty party. It is always special fun to meet old friends and weleome new ones to Our Town, and such was the privilege and pleasure of the other evening. The hospitality and warm personalities of the host and hos- tess were direetly responsible for al’ the enjoyment and pleasure had by the wondreful admixture of gucsts and we all left with the thought and remembrance of what an extra-specially nice twilight it had been. And so, a “thank you” to Ad- miral and Mrs. Towner for their lovely and charming “at home” of the other evening. Chatted with lovely Pat—but where was that handsome son?
