On Saturday evening Miss Warn, with a party of her classmates, was invited to a tatting bee, which was given at the home of Mrs. Russell Ensign, 508 Edgewood Place.  The rooms of the home were made particularly attractive, with clusters of sweet peas and trailing vines. After a pleasant social evening all enjoyed a delicious buffet luncheon, and while making ready for the luxuries awaiting them the engagement of Miss Pearl L. Warn to L.W. Hovey of Bainbridge, N.Y., was made known, the announcement being made by cards which bore a novel inscription and were attached to the teaspoons in use.  On one corner of each card were two red hearts concealing the names of Miss Warn and Mr. Hovey.  Mrs. Ensign was assisted in serving and entertaining by Miss Hazel Stoker.  Some time was spent in social pleasure and all who participated in the evening's festivities considered themselves particularly favored.  Mr. Hovey is a senior at Cornell university and will complete his college course in June.  Miss Warn is well known here, where she attended Homer academy for several years and was graduated in the class of 1912, and expects to conclude her course at Cornell with the class of 1917.  She has many Homer friends, who will be interested in the announcement recently made public.
 
On Sunday evening after the meeting of the Epworth league had been dismissed the "Cornell Tree Club" enjoyed their usual luncheon, at 438 Aurora-et.  The guest table was elaborately decorated with the Cornell colors, red and white.  A delightful social hour followed, with an abundance of music, both vocal and instrumental interspersed, and all who participated in the delightful event spent an evening of pleasure--Cortland Standard of May 3.
