with the departure of Afrigue. After that for some time the dancing
continued, until Mrs. Thomas prevailed upon Mrs. Warren Robbins to
sing a couple of songs. Looking too lovely for words in a black dress
with a jacket with long, tight sleeves with a mauve chiffon flower pinned
on the lapel and in her hand a huge purple chiffon handkerchief, all
so very becoming to her beautiful hair, Mrs. Robbins, remaining seated,
sang one song, but for the next one she was persuaded to sing before
the "mike”—a truly new experience for her and a truly enjoyable ex
perience for us, for she has indeed a beautiful voice and such a delight
ful manner. Following that Kurt Hetzel played two selections on the
piano to the pleasure of all his friends.
And time marched on! It was a disappointment that Evie Symington
could not sing for us. but she couldn’t, and that’s that, but Mary Du Bose
continued to page her over the “mike” and then and there it was discovered
that Mary has missed her vocation and better quickly get herself a job as an
announcer in a night club! And so far into the night the party progressed,
and all the while ups fairs a fast and furious poker game was in session,
headed by Mrs. Marye and Mrs. Cloman.
Here's hoping that some one can prevail upon Mrs. Thomas to give an
other dance in the not too distant future! (Not too gentle a hint!)
