MRS.   PO;iT SURPRISED ^Special  Contributor)
What will probably be remembered by Mrs. Mamie A. Po:?t as one of the biggest anrprises of her life, was tbe misc^illaneous shower tendered her last Friday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Clinton M. Flint.
F'riday was fhe day set for tbe   reg- : I'lJh! ular monthly gathering of the   Larkin ' year. Luncheon Club and it was at this affair       Monthly that .Mr:s   Post arrived with no idea of what was in store for her.
The dining room was very prettily decorated, while over the table an American fiag was draped. In the centre of the table wa.s pdaced a mini¬ ature boat wuh ligures repreaenting the fourteen gueets lining the sides, and a large figure in bridal clothes in the centre of thf ship. F'rom euch passenger a ribbon was lastened that extended down to the place cards, wbich wtre two red hearts engraved on white cards.
After a very bounteous luncheon had been jerved by tbe hostess, the guests were instructed to draw tbe ribbon on their place cards and secure their sou¬ venir. Fiach doll pasnenger on the ship had a very appropriate verse as applied lo its owner and caused much merrinu'U^ when read. To tbe ribbon and iloll of the truest of honor was attached a bunch of paper keys containing direction^ as ti> what room each key belonged and that by careful search further favors might be found. It was nut until she bad entered the parlor und lounil an embroidered pil¬ low with her name i'.lt.iclied, tbat the future bride awoke to the fact that something unusuji! v.u.s happening and she had walked intn i'k- clever trap of her friends witb both eyes open.
According to the instructions on the keya, Mre. F'oBt found that the nexl room to lie visited was the bedroom, trom there her journey took her out to the ''hicken Ixjuse, the bathroom, out-' doors to the beehive, to the kitchen, in the huh, down cellar, back upstairs, again to the pantry and finally ending up with the dining   roum.

rwo V«i| I'NTEERS KILLED l:\e iitiivy price that volunteer Bre¬ men pay for d<'iiig fire duty is the same as is .so- frequently detnarvded f;-.^m tbe pmfessional iinjury and alj !is' eiften death itself. Those who prate about the alleged decay ( • ll,e volunteer fite service in this ceuinry wcrld change their views if they gave preper heed to the facts. The killing of tv*o young volunteers the other day is merely another proof of what everj informed man known, that our volun¬ teer firemen have so high a sense of duty ihat they will run any risk in its pf rfermance. These two men, one of tbem the chief of the department and both prominent in their community, l>e!tinged to the same'tine type of pub¬ lic spirited citizenship tbat we scnie- times hear of as existing befere paid departments came intn existence.
Volunteer firemen are changing to n:i'!' r Hpiiuratus, hut they are uot changing at all in the b[ irit of devo- lirn to the service.
