The Spokane rate case has been be-

particularly complained of the rates

Afternoon club averted the privilege
or their as: yesterday. and despite
their name. spent a decidedly pleasant
Tuesday afternoon at the beach. with
Mrs. Lawrence -.A Douglass. at her
Harbor View cottage. “Eventide." .
The weather left nothing to be de
sired that was not furnished at tiar-
bor View. and when Mrs. Daniels and
Mrs. Pillow. the president of the club.
who assisted her. received her guests.
she found them. like herself. in the
sweet mood. , i
The afternoon was spent informally
in animated conversation. except when
Mrs. Andrews of Danbury. accompan
led by Miss Close at the piano. played
some of the best known violin solos
most beautifully.
mammalian served her guests
with a delicious fruit punch. ice cream
and dainty cakes and candles. and the
party broke up merrily after fortunes
had been passed and read.
Mrs. Douglass is well known as a
charming hostess and yesterday to suc-
cess was all that she could ,deslre. tier
guests enfoysd themselves to the at.
most. for it is not often that the la-
dies. as a club. have an opportunity
to spend an afternoon so free field
