Every year it is the custom of the young
gentlemen of the Twin-City to give ger
man and banquet complimentary to the
graduating class of the S; F. A and the Wis
iting ladies' They are known throughout
North Carolina and in many other States
| for their pleasurable occasions, and they al
WAYS do the cordial thing handsomely. This
year, as in the past, they entertained charm
| ingly and all the visitors felt that the Twin
| City's hospitality was unstinted and of the
! most elegant order. On Wednesday evening
| of last week an array OF gallant men and
| uueenly women, from n. c., So. c. Va,
| Georgia Louisiana, Texas and other states,
| met under the glowing electric lights OF the
| Club Rooms for evenings pastime
| The rooms had been tastefully decorated
| by that adept in the art, DIR. j. A. Blum,
an elegant banquet had been spread, and
Varilla's Italian band was there to dispense
sweet music.
AT eleven o'clock the german was opened
| by Mr.. Robert l.. Crawford, of Winston,
| with Miss Ellie Elliott, of Danville, Va,
| and the merry company made the hours go
| bv lightly until the dawn of another day.
| OF course the young ladies were beautiful.

apply the adjective, but as space is limited
we apply it to them collectively, for it was
an assemblage of many of the fairest ladies
| in the land, At the risk of being called
| ''hateful'' and Stupid" and all those pet
names that are applied to an editor when
he, (blissfully ignorant of the difference be-
tween Swiss null and Organdle lace) gets
