The home was -Mrs. Brom-well's and aiding her were Mrs. JosephKelly and Mrs.. George Borneman.

The departure of Mrs. Warren Olneywith her daughter, Miss Ethel Olney,while a matter of congratulation, forthem is still a cause for regret amongtheir many •friends. But -

the spirit of"speed the parting guest" is upper-most, and amid the farewells therehave, been recently many affairs ofpleasure given to the two travelers.Mrs. and Miss Olney -will tour Europe,'stopping in many Eastern cities enroute.

Miss Maud Smith and her mother,Mrs. George Law Smith, have returnedhome full of reminiscences of charm-ing hospitality in the East. In all thelarger cities the ladies were delightfullyentertained, but with all the allure-ments of travel they were "glad to getback"— the San Franciscan's refrain.

Friday night was the gladdest, mer-riest night of'all, for* 'twas genialNed Green way's birthday. As on allother natal days within the memory ofhis friends, Mr. Greenway gave a din-ner.
