TUESDAY, OCT. 14, 1941 8 BROOKLYN EAGLE, onlemporary Kommeni il l'" Women's Auxiliary Of Scout Council Will Have Benefit Proceeds of Bridge Party on Oct. 28 To Aid New Uniform Supply Committee Fund One of the large bridge parties of the season will be that sponsored by the Women's Auxiliary, Brooklyn Council, Boy Scouts of America, on Tuesday afternoon, Oct. 28, at the Hotel Bossert. The proceeds of the event will go to the new uniform supply committee, of which Mrs.

Francis D. McGarey We'll all agree thai a 75th birthday ta quite an occasion. That just what Mrs. James Duane Livingston Jr. thought and so decides upon a party In celebration of the birthday of her mother, Mrs, Emllj Boulee.

So, with her usual originality, Florence Livingston issued invU tatlons for the event in theform of a novel letter with sketches. She wrote: Dear Friend Next Friday, Oct. 10, is mother's 75th blrthdny and while you might think she looks like this (here was inserted a sketch of a granny knitting and rocking in a chair) you are more apt to see her in the following pose (a sketch of a bobbed hair, snappy-looking woman reading the newspaper, notably a special bargain page)." The Invitation closes with remarks about seeing to it that Mrs, Boulee stays at home on that day and we will have "open house, so the key is out and there is welcome on the mat." And so forth with a sketch of a key and, of course, the mat with welcome printed on it. Incidentally the party was reported a great success, with some enchanting verses being read to the guest of honor. A new fad In prises has been revealed and we applaud it vigorously The Brooklyn-Long Island Cat Club has started the vogue o( offering United States Defense Saving Stamps as table prizes at its dessert-card party, which will be held on Oct.

2a at the Hotel St. George. Local feline fanciers are sponsoring the card party to raise funds for money premiums to be awarded at the two-day Cat Show which the club will hold on Dec. 11 and 12.
