News Notes.
POMONA, Nov. 14.-At last the date
has arrived for the entertainment by
the young ladies of the Fruit and Flower
mission at Odd Fellows hall, which
place has been as humming, whirring
and busy as beehive through the en-
tire day, and they are determined, judg-
ing from their numbers, the individ-
uality of the component parts constitut-
ing that number, and the efforts being
put forth by them, as we'll as from their
record in the past, We can unhesitatingly
vouchsaie the mild assertion that as
many as can possibly be accommodated
within the hall will be present. The
fact that it tis production of '.our girls''
and for the noble purpose charity, is all
that is necessary to draw full patronage
and encouragement.
On the 10Th the ladies OF the guild of
St. Paul's parish will hold their annual
bazaar, and between the hours of 5 and
in the afternoon will serve an old
fashioned chicken pie dinner, with all
the ct cetera naturally going Herewith,
at the small price of rs cents. They
anticipate greater success than at any
previous one.
