Show Birthday Anniversary Tarty Given By Stake Officers ind Clubs for News Reporter By MABEL JARVIS It is comparatively easy to report social events such as showers, picnic and anniversary parties, when one is merely one of the niests for the occasion, but there js a certain sensitiveness about exploiting the happenings, when the reporter is guest of honor. I remember reading in the editorial edi-torial columns of the Salt Lake Tribune what Ham Park told of his own anniversary celebration aiven by friends. Now I know how he felt. What I am really trying to say is, I am certain it would be difficult diffi-cult to plan a more delightful anniversary an-niversary party than' the one accorded ac-corded your humble reporter last Saturday evening, Aug. 29th, on the lawns at the rear of the LD.S. Institute building. I know it will require the balance of a century to partly mert the many, lovely gifts and . greetings with which I was not just showered, but generously deluged. Mrs. Rulon Snow, Mrs. Joseph T. Atkin Jr., and Mrs. David O. Woodbury were the committee in charge, and the more than 60 guests included the stake Relief Society board, the Vesta club, the Alice Louise Reynolds club No. 16, Center ward Relief Society presidency, presi-dency, neighbors and relatives. The program included cheer songs led by Mrs. Mae A. Pace, lire. Juanita Brooks conducted a variety of games including story telling. Mrs. Irene Everett favored fav-ored with a special violin selection accompanied by Mrs. Pace; and Mrs. K. M. Cannon presented a unique style review in hats, with Mrs. Donald Schmutz reading the script, while Mrs. Cannon, Mrs. Arvilla Ashby and Mrs. Marion Snow appeared in a variety of kitchen utensils and other devices converted into millinery for the occasion, and got away with it. This skit was a reminder of my annual exhibition when I try to purchase a hat. Mrs. Mamie Pax-man Pax-man sang "Friends", and Lucile Gates and Roxey Romney gave Personal tributes. I have always been more than taPPy just to live in this little friendly place called St. George, but from now on I shall make even a greater effort to emrit this privilege and this friendship. When 1 get too old to write, I'll always feve this gathering to remember. |
