Matters socially are not nourishing in
Mari Ferry just now. More select hops
ard social gatherings have been held this
winter than usual, but nothing like the
null. Der that ought to have been, nor moth.
ing like the number that have been held in
Bell; re and some other places In this
wa things have been n UGH livelier than in
muny towns, but We think the season has
not seen the number of social events that IL
should have done. Our sweet girls have
not shown much energy, as we are now in
the third month and only two leap year
parties have been held, ope by the A. T. F.
F. Society ldst Wedne.dsy night, and the
other by the S. Il s. Society several weeks
sPo. Outside of the Standard Gles Club
only three or four select hops have been
given.
