A very enjoyable event was the "sur-

evening. 1t was"an occasion IN which
nothing was omitted that might con-
tribute to the enjoyment of every one
present. Dancing was the principal
amusement, but dominoes, authors and
cards had been provided for those who
did not care to "trip the light fantas-
tic" Some very excellent music from
the piano and organ added much to the
pleasures of the occasion. A fine sup
per was no inconsiderable part of the
entertainment, to which all did ample
justice. Dancing and games were con-
tinued until the ''wee sma' hours" the
guests then departing, feeling that they
had never enjoyed themselves more,
and hoping.to meet again under many
more like circumstances
