The Y. /. NJ. I. association OF the
Fourth ward gave very nice entertain
ment on Saturday evening for the benefit
of the missionaries from the ward who
are in foreign countries. A nice pro-
gramme was rendered, consisting Of vocal
and instrumental music, Rotations and
concluded with farce. A large audience
greeted their efforts.
On Monday evening three balls were
given in the city. One in the Second, one
in the Fifth and one in the Sixth ward.
All were very enjoyable and well at
tended. The one given IN the Sixth ward
was for the benefit of the Gibbs monu-
ment fund.
On Monday evening Messrs. Morris and
VIII Swinyard gave very pleasant So
ciable and card party to number Of their
friends at their home on the Island. A
very pleasant time was had and the even
ing was most enjoyable.
Cupid has again brought together two
loving hearts. On Wednesday Mr.. Nephi
Smith was united in wedlock TO Miss
Alice Johnson. The ceremony was per-
formed in Logan temple. In the evening
a reception was held at the residence OF
the BRIDES mother. a large number of
relatives and friends met to congratulate
and wish them all happiness.
Since reading of the young and old
maids Of Salt Lake, in appropriaUing the
cid bachelors during leap year, the
thought suggested itself that now the
bachelors viii likely give them wide
berth and they viii be left to maiden
meditation free, perhaps our maids will
stand q good chance OF captivating some
of them. Our girls are very timid, and l
am afraid some OF them viii mourn lost
opportunities. But as rule we love
modest girls, and we have some of the
handsOmest, wittiest, most go-a-head
maids, for all are under thirty. But our
bachelors, like most men, dc not and
perhaps never will prize the blessings
till some one deprives them of them. For
instance our county recorder has either
not nerve enough to ask one girl to
lighted his solitude, or else is afraid of
wounding the feelings of all the others
so he fills his Office with some of the most
clever ones. Among them Miss Palmer,
young woman thoroughly able to take
care of herself and husband too ii
necessary. Miss Lufkin, who can not
only WELD the pen, but who can dis
course most enhancing music, that
would turn any sensible mans head, and
heart too if he possessed one, and ~
Parry, who manipulates the typeV er
in a way to make ones head whirl. Nor
enliving the solitude and caring their
own living. In the county clerks office is
Miss Hattie Thatcher, who helps TO
while away the time and pu,
ducats in his pockets. Then
there are others of our girls
who are independent and prefer earning
their living to having 1t given them, for
our girls usually believe in equal rights.
Some are teaching, clerking and follow
oil ~
women.
Among our teachers are Misses Bessie
and Marie Moorehead, charming intelli-
gent girls and most efficient teachers, also
Miss Bowen. Miss Thain and a number of
others. Miss Hattie Carter, our charm
ing milliner, who can convince almost
anyone that she has the latest styles and
just the things you need. Miss Marinda
Torgeson, our telegraph operator, who
has worked at the key since she was a
little girl, which by the way is not very
long ago. and who is one of fhe most
efficient operators on the line. Then we
have our girls at home who tighten the
mothers labors and make home happy
by their happy, charming ways. Among
them are Misses Alley Thatcher, who
combines with her amlacle disposition
thorough knowledge of housekeeping and
who viii never give any of our bachelor
friends sour bread. Miss Laura Farrell,
charming enough to reign qneen in any
home, Just the one to prove a JOY forever
and never make YOU regret your choice,
who will smile in your Joy and weep in
your misfortune. Misses Hilda and
Annie Eliason, who are not only thor
ough housekeepers and good musicians,
but can successfully stock and carry on
hourishing dry goods establishment as
well if not better than some of our bach
elor friends, and make money out of it.
But time viii not permit to mention
half of our girls. But if some forlorn
old bachelors viii give US call we viii
be pleased to give him any other infor-
nation he may desire. LoGANITE.
