Birthday Party.

Master Charlie Hammel celebrated his 10th birthday in elegant style last Monday evening by giving a party to his little companions in the spacious parlors of the Hammel House. Early in the evening the house was comfortably filled by the little merrymakers, and the hours were pleasantly whiled away in singing, playing games and other amusements. The following are the names of those present together with their gifts:

Effie, Less and Brevier Ely, handkerchiefs; Willie and Cash Pechin, books; Byron and Tilla Graham, handkerchief; Lella and Pearl King, candy and toys; Addie Jones, packet book; Harvey and Minnie Jones, candy and toys.
