Anderson. With the exception Of Wednes,
day, the weather throughout the whole

enjoyment. The young men Of the city
had brilliant fantastic tide Christmas
Day. and their grotesque appearance
afforded much amusement. There was
not much rowdyism or drinking during
the holidays, and nothing occurred in the
city to mar the pleasures of the week.
