Miss Virginia Reeder was the inspiration for a delightful courtesy last evening when her mother honored her with a birthday dinner at their home on Poplar street. 

The girls were seated at a beautifully appointed table which held for a centerpiece a bowl of pretty flowers in pastel shades. 

Dainty place cards marked the places for the honoree and guests who included: Misses Juliene Goyer, Edna Cox, Mary Louise Wilson, Eva Bell Jones, Ann Winn, Jimmie Lou Stribling, Gladys Nipper, Corinne Stutts, and Mildred Malone.

A party was enjoyed later in the evening and the following young men were invited: Thomas Wilson, Milburn Davidson, Gerald Loggins, Schuman Brewer, John Reeder, Wiley Sharp, Harold Riggs, Albert Trousdale, Preston Reeder, James Dealey, James Thompson, and Atticus Harrison.
