Firwood avenue was hostess at
bridge last Saturday evening, hon
oring her house guest, Mrs. Agnes
Duncan of Cincinnati and other
out-of-town guests in the persons
of Mrs. Lloyd Taylor of Indiana
polis and stunning Billy Maxwell
of Chicago. Dr. and Mrs. Lloyd Tay
lor were the houscgucsts of real
estate mogul S. B. McQueen, and
Miss Maxwell shared the hospitality
of the Walter McGlaskers of God

Mrs. King spread a feast in the
so charming buffet style for about
20 guests inclusive of Odessa Trot

The group were in ecstasy about
the various new diggings around
and about, for example, Selma's
luscious new fitted mink coat, the
stunning tailored suit and bag af
fected by Katherine Parker, John
nie Fritz's so clever red wool out
fit and beaver coat, Odessa Trotter's
tangerine suit, Irma Collins' Persian
lamb coat, Carolyn Glover's moss
green ensemble and so on and so
on far into the night.
Billy Maxwell, one of the guests
of honor, heads the popular "Royal
ites“ club in Chicago and to that
end was a busy person exacting
promises of prospective mannequins
for their much publicized style
show this February.
As we recall. Cadence Hines came
out with highest score, capturing
the first prize, which turned out to ;
be something very elegant in toilet- ,
ries.
