Mrs T. B. Knopp opened her love-
ly home to the members of the Soph-
tan Club Wednesday afternoon, the
occasion being the last meeting and
iheir only social event of the year.
Receiving with Mrs. Knopp were the
club hostesses, Mrs. Alfred Schweers
and Misses Lucilg de Montel and
Bess Brocks. Baskets and bow^ of
pink and lavender 'sweetpeas carried
out thd club colors and enhanced
the beauty of reception room, living-
icom and dining room.
After all had assembled, Mrs. H.
E* Mediin presided at the business
session during which Mrs. W. H.
Windrow was admitted to member
•hip and business pertaining to the
club’s course of study for next year
.vas disposed of. At the conclusion of
this work the club hostessts announc-j
cd the social program which was;
carried out as follows;
Vocal Solo, "Ave Maria” from the
opera, ‘ Cavalaria Rusticana,” by
Mascagni, preceded by a story of
the opera—Mrs. Roland Gaines.
Piano Solo, "Berceuse” from
’Jocelyn” by Godard—Miss Ruth
Watson.
Vocal Solo, “Philosophy,” by David
Emmell—Miss Dutz Davis.
Each guest was then given a slip
cfjpaper bearing a “mus cal motto,”
tlif object of which was to prepare
otte for the “feast of music and flow
of. musical terms” which followed
■and for a time threatened to swamp
the majority of these endeavoring
to wade through. The hostesses believ-
ing in the old Adage that “two heads
are better than one,” partners to
share in the ordeal were allowed and
were chosen by matching parts of
the names of popular songs. And
lucky was she who secured for her
teammate some cne well versed in
music lore. Five contests
pertaining to music, musical
terms and musical instruments were
entered into, Miss Bess Brucks, con-
ducting them. True to her role as
teacher, Miss Brucks cajoled, plead
v/ith, threatened, in fact did all but
>ribe, her audience. Her effoits were
rewarded with but one {perfect paper,
that of Mrs. H. E. Mediin and Mrs.
>L €. Hyatt. There were a number
of ' fair” papers and some that would
have captured the “booby” prize any-
vvhere. Mrs. Mediin and Mrs. Hyatt
looeived for their efforts a bouqurt
of sweet peas and a miniature silver
guitar as a souvenir.
Miss Watson then played melodies
of popular sgngs until the audience
grew hysterical when a member ex-
claimed ‘ That's ‘Little Spanish
Town’ and the only one 1 knew”—
and it proved to be "Bungalow
Dreams.”
At the close cf the afternoon the
hostesses served refreshing grape ici
end angel-food cake, iced n pink, to
the members as follows:
Pdcsdnines R. H. HudsptU and T.

The Senior Class of 1928, Hondo j
High School, presented the class play,
Honor Bright, to a full house Wed-1
asday evening.
The play is a clever and entertain- j
ng comedy diama centering about
the love affairs of a young scion of
an aristocratic N: w England family j
vith a chorus girl and a self-reliant
modern business girl. The youm ma n
gets his aristocratic mother, his min-
■sterial relatives as well as him f
into a sea of trouble, but in the end i
all is well and everybody— even 1.0
th° scandalized servants—are sa;
isfied.
The class portrayed the several
characters well, and the vast audience
seemed immensely pleased with the
performance. The proceeds amounted
to $187.25. After defraying com-
mencement expenses, the class pur-
poses spending the balance in leaving
a permanent memorial of some kind
in the school for the use and benefit
of classes that are to follow them—
a most commendable and thoughtful
precedent to establish.
The program of the play was fea-
tured in our last paper and we, there-
fore, refrain from making individual
mention here further than to say
that, through an oversight of some
one, the name of Jack Bradley, the
leading man, was omitted from the
copy furnished us for the paper and
the error was not discovered until
after the paper was printed.
An interesting feature of the ev-
ening was the regular musical pro-
gram by the orchestra, a saxaphone
solo by Otis Schuehle and a song
by Thomas Taylor.
The commencement exercises will
consist of the baccalaureate services
at the auditorium of the High School
