Maid of Honor The fourth honor was
won by David Deck, knight OF "kose-
dale, who crowned Miss Moore, OF
Berkeley, Third Maid OF Honor.
The Coronation ceremonies were de
fcrred until after dinner, and then as
scmbled iii the shady grove, the TAR
maidens were led forth to receive the
Floral wreaths, the insignia of their
royal dignity, which were placed on
their fair browS. ID. W. Border, with
courily grace, and appropriate language
performed the pleasant ceremony.
As matter OF course, the evening
was devoted TO dancing, though 1t Is
hard to imagine what amusement there
can be III the exercise. Perhaps thevo-
tames OF the dance never think how S!I-
ly it is to be wasting precious time IN
gong through a set OF motions TO the
sound OF horse mar drawn across
fiddle string.
