Pre-Nuptial Affair.
Special to Independent.
Tuckerman, Jan. 6.—On Mon
day afternoon January 5. Miss
Ida Dowell entertained most :
delightfully from 3 to 5 in a lin
en shower, complimentary to
Miss Lucy Lindley, whose mar
riage to Mr. Forrest Penix will
take place Wednesday evening,
at the home of her father, Mr. 1
J. W. Lindley.
The hospitable Dowell home
was artistically arranged for
the occasion, American Beauty
roses, ferns and palms being us-1
ed in the decorations.
Throngs of friends were gra
ciously welcomed by the charm
ing young hostess, handsomely
gowned in lavender crepe de
chine, assisted by Mesdames
Ralph Smith and D. C. Dowell,
Jr. In the reception hall, ra
diant in a gown of amethyst
charmeuse with chiffon under
blouse, large picture hat, the
bride-elect received the guests,
at the same time presenting her
friend, Miss Potts, of Atkins,
Arkansas. In the library a
most refreshing fruit beverage
was served by Misses Kate Ho
gan and Ruby Neil Gardner. Af
ter the usual greetings theguests
were invited into the spacious
parlor where an impromptu
program was rendered.
Vocal selections by Misses
Dowell and Yelverton and Mrs.
D. C. Dowell, Jr., were much en
joyed.

Miss Ruby Neil Gardner was
very fine. At the conclusion of
the program the guests were led
to the dining room by the hos
tess. Pink and white was pret
tily emphasized by a beautiful
centerpiece of graceful Ameri
can Beauty roses and ferns in a
handsome basket. The color
scheme was carried out in brick
cream and cake which made very
dainty refreshments. Return
ing to the parlors Miss Lindley
was found seated in a large
rocker swathed in ropes of pink
and white tulle. At a signal lit
tle Miss Emma Dowell dressed
daintily in white embroidered
mull and pink ribbons entered
drawing a chariot laden with
many packages of loving remem
brance to the bride-elect, who re
ceived and opened each with en
thusiasm, passing them on to be
admired by her friends. Hardly
could a more enchanting scene
be sketched by artist’s brush
than this which culminated the
afternoon’s pleasures.
