Columbia Club New Year's ball at Hotel Yonree. The young ladies will do the cheeking. Last week was red-letter week for Shreveport. It included the coming of Judge Kelley at the church overwork-but-true in this instance-phrase, psychological moment, whose being with us means we are going to do so much good. But it also broueht the nnenin? of the new "Pines," which was of greater importance, as it is not only the promise of future help, but stands for gfii already done and, more than all, it is proof beyond all question of the faith, and work, and love of humanity, of a woman.

Against all discourage- menta Mra. Meyer Benson haa kept a firm hold on her belief that for us it will be possible to bring back to perfect health those touched by the white plague; and on Saturday afternoon, December 4, the perfect sanitarium, for which many have given and worked through the inspiration of her untiring efforts, was filled during the reception hours by several hundred admiring peop'e. All the while as I went about my mind was full of Longfellow's little poem of Florence Nightingale, going through the wards at night holding a lamp above her head and the sufferers turning their heads to kiss her shadow as it passed, and this beautiful building seemed to me the lamp Mrs. Benson has held up: "A lady with a Lamp shall stand In the gTeat history of the land A noble type of good, Heroic womanhood." I said something like this to Mrs. John McCullough who replied, "Of course Mrs.

Benson hat done a wonderful work, but much of the credit of this should go to Mr. Benson, for if be had not been in sympathy, willing to an unusual degree to share, she never could have accomplished what she has, And that's true, too. Mrs. Raph Kahn, the chairman of the house committee, secured the fur nishings, which are not yet all in place, but are most attractive and will be complete for every Heed. On ihe sec ond floor beside each bed is a steamer chair, and the beds themselves are the most comfortable that could be bought.

The entrance hall of the ground floor is furnished in mahogany, with cush ioned chairs, and long table with mirror over it and it the gift of Mr. and Mrs. E. K. Smith.

Opening from it on the left is the perfectly appointed office, the gift of Mrs. Henry Knders. On the Tight ia the reception room where the mahogany and cane-inset furniture, the rose rug and window hangings are the gift of Mr. and Mrs. D.

Messenger, of Danville, of No-! vember 26: One of the most beautiful weddings which has ever been witnessed in Danville took plsee at the Baptist Church last night when Miss Elizabeth Mahan and Mr.

Harold Sumrell, of Shreveport, wer united in marriage. Th church was elsborately decorated around the pulpit with small evergreen trees and ferns intermingled with smilax. Two large French baskets filled with white- chrysanthemums tied with tulle bows, from which hung tiny wedding bells, and four Cathedral eandlestickt with tall whit tapers completed th artistic decorations. Preceding th ceremony Misa Em-eline Hsrbison played "Humoresque," by Dvoark, a "Wedding Hymn," by Batiste, and "A Romance," by Zitte-bait, on the organ.

S-P-U-G stands for "Society for the Prevention of Useless Giving." If you have not become a spug yourself, at least try to influenced by the principles they stand for. Think twice before you select a gift. Erneste Reams had such a delightful little visit in Houston. He said t.hfl Shrevenort neorle there, estieciallv the Kincaids, the Hurlburts and the Dentons were so nice to him, dinners and drivos and every attention that he could accept, for of course his programs had to be given on time. He said the beautiful new organ was the talk of the city, and that one old fel low was so pleased with his playing that he brought him a cream cheese pie.

Mr. Reams says Houston is a beautiful city, and to him the loveliest spot in it is Christ church and the rectory, "perhaps because my sweet heart married there." Can you beat it as we all say, though few of us write.

David Lawton Croom. On Sunday, December 8, at the residence of Dr. M. E. Dodd, Misa Lucille Elizabeth Cloud, of Monroe, and Mr.

WalterL. George, of Shreveport, were united in marriage in the presence of a few intimate friends. Mr. and Mrs. George will be at home to their friends after December 12, at 276 lialxeil street.

In the ttudy of the First Presby terian Church at half after 8 o'clock on Thursday evening, in the presence of the immediate family, the service was impressively read by the Rev. Jasper K. Smith, uniting in marriage Miss Kathleen Van Hooae, eldest daughter oi Mr. James rl. and Mrs.

Rose Billiu Van Hoose, and Mr. Lee M. Snow. Happiness added to the girlish lovli-ness of the bride who wore a traveling suit of dark blue tricotine, with hat oi Diue velvet. The attendant were the lister of the bride.

Miss Marion Van Hoose in a brown coat suit and hat, and Mr. Bill booker. Immediately after the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Snow left for Daliat and upon their return will be at home with their parents, Mr.

and Mrs. 3. H. Van Hoose. The wedding Is the culmination of a romance begun during the World War, when the bride was a school girl and Mr.

Snow was located hero with the 156th Regiment. As soon as he was discharged after his return from France, Mr. Snow came back to Shreveport to see the little girl with wh om he had corresponded, and here he has remained. The wedding is of much Interest in Mississippi, where tha family of the groom are well-known and in Louisiana, as the bride is of the two oldest and most prominent families "of the state. On Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock in the parlors of the First Methodist Church, Mrs.

Avs Armistead Lester, of Coushatta, was united in marriage to Mr. E. Lester of Lewisville, Bev. Mr. Pheus, officiating.

There were present the bride's broth er and sister, Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Lester, ber son, Roy T.

Lester, and Messrs. Dick Crocker snd John Herndon, of Lewisville, and of this city, the birde's brother, Mr. W. W. Armistead, her aunt, Mrs.

Birdie L. Armistead and Mrs. Pheus. The bride was modishly attired in a coat suit of blue tricotine with hat and gloves to match. Her flowers were a corsage of Charles Kussell roses.

R. A. Clark, were quietly tut impressively married in the home of Mr. and Mrs. W.

A. Cain, Jr, on Sunday afternoon at 6 o'clock, December Rev. W. W. Drake officiating.

The home was very attractively Red and yellow tints of autumn formed the color motif of the decorations for the nook where the ceremony was performed. Th living room was in daisy and chrysanthemums, while in the dining room, from which the bride snd rroom entered, were vases filled with premier roses and ferns. The bride wat modishly attired In a suit of brown velour with hat, gloves and shoes in harmony. Her flowers wer a corsag of sweet peas with lilies of the valley. Before leaving the bride presented her bosquet to on cf her friends, Mist Loit Mills.

Immediately after th ceremony, Mr. and Mrt. Clark left for their wedding trip North, but just what placet they will visit, they very cleverly managed to keep unknown. After January 1 Mr. and Mrt.

If you are planning to send fudge in your Christmas packages you may be interested in the way of one of the successful candy makers.

She used the flat tin boxes tne tittle wafer cakes come in and she pours the fudge in and then cuts it into squares. 'Carlyle says "The true university of these days is a collection of bocks," and books do make ideal Christmas presents when they are given with due consideration. In these days people are careful that children have a well balanced diet, watch their stomachs, their teeth, their feet, their eyes and their adenoids', and although they know that the little minds are the busiest parts of the bodies they forget to think about them in connection with what the child reads, and one hears a conversation about like this, "I want a nice book for my little boy. I really haven't anything in mind but er, something that costs about a dollar." When there are so many wonderful books to give! I think it was Kate Douglas Wiggin, though it may have been Amy Lowell, who said "Beware of the stories written down to children by people who never could write up to children." Christmas would never be Christmas without books and dolls, and this year there seem in the shops more of the pretty jdoiis like those we had "before the war." The business and professional woman's club, as the first step towards their club house is to have a doll sale. Miss Lynn was telling me the other day of a beauty all dressed pink.

1 think it field had been writing nowadays he would have written, "Just any old color, just so's it's pink, is the Color that pleases me But writing of dolls reminds me that at the Seven Ages of Woman bazar only dolls sold the dolls. Did you notice it? In these days when the stores are full of Santa Claus fixings buy a few of the smallest of the littie sleigh bells and fasten one securely on the neck of every bottle of poison, and then even In the dark you will not take up the bottle without knowing it is not what you want. Miss Anna Maher told me so interestingly the other day about the Pan-Hellenic Association that has just been organized here. Of course, they have no definite plans yet, but a group of womefi who have given four years to college work are certain, by banding together, to do something well worthwhile. In the Herndon svenue neighborhood little Billy Holmes is being sadly missed.
