RECORDER’S COURT—JUDGE EARL FORD ON THE BENCH
---------------------
The Judge was delighted with the light docket this morning, and the reporter imagined he was thinking that the cold weather might have had a little something to do with freezing up the activities of criminal intentions, and there may be something in that idea.
Only two light cases of violating eh traffic law—Hollis Lance and Robert Ellis—who did not think enough of their cases to appear in the court, and hence forfeited their cash bonds.
Judge Ford, by the way, is a great admirer of the beautiful, not only in art, but in the architecture of public buildings, and some of these mornings when the docket is so light, the reporter rather suspects, he may deliver himself of a brief dissertation on this subject, and if he does, The Daily Times will be glad to give the public the benefit of what he says.

MRS. HEYMAN WALL, HOSTESS
Yesterday afternoon, at the hospitable home of Mr. and Mrs. Lawson White, on McClung Street, Mrs. Heyman Wall entertained in honor of Mesdames Shelby White, Gilbert White, and Mrs. Carrie Law.
This handsome home has been decorated for many enjoyable gatherings, but it has never been prettier than it was on this most pleasant occasion. Chrysanthemums, ferns, palms, potted plants, and cut flowers were in profusion throughout the house. Some one hundred and seventy guests called in the course of the afternoon.
Mrs. Wall was becomingly gowned in a lovely blue Georgette dress, with gold trimmings. Mrs. Lawson Wall was lovely in a lavender Georgette hand-embroidered in gold. Mrs. Carrie Law was dressed in brown and tan Georgette. Mrs. Shelby White was handsomely gowned in blue mousveline.
Dainty sandwiches and an ice cream course was served by the following young women: Mesdames J. J. Bradley, Jr., W. L. Lyle, George Cooper, Walter Wellman, Jessie Young, Willard Hutchens, Day Humphrey, Willis Harris, Vernon Hutchens, and William L. Wall, Jr.
This was one of the prettiest parties of the season, and Mrs. Edith Wall and mother, Mrs. Lawson White, in their usual charming, sweet way, made the guests regret the time for them to leave for their respective homes.
