BRIDE-ELECT SHOWERED
WITH MANY LOVELY GIFTS

       Miss Maurine Olinger, bride-elect of Allen Causby, was showered with lovely gifts when she was named honoree at a bridge party given by Mrs. Joe Johnston Thursday afternoon.
       Sweetpeas and lilies decorated the rooms and the four tables were centered with orange blossoms in crystal baskets tied with white satin ribbon.  The bridal motif was also noted in the bride's-slipper tallies and the table cuts which were gold miniature slippers surmounted by turtle doves.
       This was a lucky day for the honor guest, for she made high score and received a dainty award, and the hostess gifts to her were a bride's book and a hand-made quilt.  She also received many attractive and useful gifts in the shower.
       Ice cream molded in wedding slippers and angel food squares were served.
