many friends of her girlhood still
reside, all of whom are offering in

A "Gifted Artitt.
We had the pleasure this week
of looking at n number of drawings
in india ink, water colors and cray
on, done by I.on Gentry of Indc
pcndence, who is visiting his grand
mother, Mrs. Thomas Boatright.
I.on has proven himself to be quite
nu artist nud will no doubt become
famous yet. Among the collection
was a drawing of the famous Indi
an chief, "K.iiu in the Face," done
in ink that was excellent. Also
'I'll.. f'r.M.'t, if Tliiirn.." in ..(.1irc
. . , W W I Will, If. . ..1'..,.-. ... if,
the expression being very fine nud
true to the original.
I.on, unlike many people who are
gifted, seems to he perfectly indif
ferent to the fact that he has been
doubly blessed in the possession of
such a talent and makes no fuss
over it whatever.
Pleasantly Entertained-
A plertMint evening was spent
Friday with Misses Mary and Annie
Holmes on Yerby street. Music on

hung throughout the grounds for
the comfort nud pleasure of the
little folks, while a variety of games
suitable for the time and place bad
leen provided by the entertainment
committee who left nothing undone
that could have ndded to the pleas
ure of the day.
