"A LITTLE BIRD TOLD ME" LUNCHEON
AT a recent engagement luncheon the announcement was made in a
unique -way.
A large wooden embroidery hoop was hung from the ceiling over
the table and in the ring perched a gaily painted wooden parrot,
the kind that rocks back and forth when touched.
From the parrot streamers of colored baby ribbon led to the
different places, and tied to the ends of the ribbons were tiny
notes in envelopes. These on being opened showed the names of
the engaged couple and a short rhyme reading thus:
A little bird told me A very nice thing,
That Randolph gave Sally A diamond ring.
The refreshments followed somewhat the parrot color scheme, with
halves of grapefruit garnished with cherries, chicken a la King,
pimento, walnut and cream cheese salad, orange ice, and little
cakes with colored frosting.
Small celluloid parrots perched on the rims of the glasses were
appropriate souvenirs.
A HAPPINESS TEA
Sing a song of sixpence, A pocket full o' rye,
Four and twenty bluebirds Baked in a pie;
When the pie was opened The birds began to sing,
About a certain couple here Who have some news to spring.
Thus did one girl announce her engagement in the month of May.
She had asked twenty-four of her best friends to come to a
bluebird tea one Saturday afternoon, and nobody suspected her
secret, although they did remember that the bluebird stands for
happiness.
The party was held out on the hostess's big porch, which was
decorated with jars of pink and white apple blossoms. Everybody
had a very good time dancing to the music of the phonograph
until it was time for the tea to be served. The waitresses were
Betty's two little sisters, ' who wore as insignia big blue bows
on their hair and cunning little aprons made of bluebird
cretonne.
The tea was iced and served with lemon and mint in tall glasses.
The sandwiches were tiny and round and filled with pink
strawberry jam which made them seem like delectable apple-
blossom petals. Betty happened to have bluebird plates and she
used paper napkins with a bluebird motif.
After the sandwiches came little pink and green and white
frosted cakes and last of all the surprise. It appeared to be a
great pie with bluebird heads peeking through the crust. In
reality the crust was just brown paper touched up with a bit of
water color paint and pasted across the top of a big open pan.
The bluebirds soon showed what they were when the guests in turn
pulled them out of the pie by means of the narrow white ribbon
attached to each one. They were really flat pasteboard
bluebirds and served as the excuse for the rhyme announcing
Betty's engagement.
As a souvenir each guest had a tiny bluebird May basket filled
with pink and white Jordan almonds. Small square boxes formed
the foundations of the May baskets, the sides were then covered
with bluebird crepe paper and the corners tied with wee blue
bows. Little cut-out bluebirds hung from the slender handles and
bore the names of the individual guests.
When they said good-by, the guests all declared that they had
had a bluebirdy time, which in other words meant that Betty had
planned very happily.

City of Ellisville
Special Open Council Meeting
Mayor Novak called this Special Open Meeting to order at
6:30 p.m. Other Council Members in attendance were: Compton,
Knapp, Norwood, and Khoury.
Also present were: City Mgr. LaGarce, Atty. Anderson, and Intern
Mears.
APPROVAL OF AGENDA
Council Member Compton moved to approve the Agenda, seconded by
Council Member Khoury. All "AYE" roll call vote.
RULES SUSPENDED
Council Member Compton moved to suspend rules, seconded by
Council Member Knapp. All "AYE" roll call vote.
YMCA PROPOSAL
Mayor Novak opened the discussion of the status of the YMCA
Bluebird Park proposal and a schedule for resident
communications and meetings.
City Manager LaGarce advised that he was called out to Bluebird
Park during the surveying conducted on behalf of the YMCA. They
were staking the area and he saw the footprint, and was
concerned their parking area was going into the flat area where
city events are conducted. He talked them into moving it back
and utilizing the berm between Carmel Woods and the park for
parking. As a result, they will have to amend the footprint, but
it should be ready before the end of the week. The footprint, in
conjunction with the slides the YMCA has, will help people
conceptualize. For an informational meeting, Mr. LaGarce wanted
to send 3,000 postcards to residents advising them of the date,
time and place of the meeting. It would take about one week to
have the postcards prepared and mailed. If the cards were
requested today, the meeting couldn't be held before the 23rd
He suggested they have two meetings to accommodate everyone.
Given the timing, the meeting will have to be sometime in
January.
Council Member Compton agreed it should be after the holidays.
He suggested the second week in January. He also wanted to see a
simple survey conducted, similar to the Halloween survey.
