An enjoyable time took place at the
Hotel Arcadia at Santa Monica last
Thursday night which was participated
in by many of the guests. It was moth.
ing more nor less than an old-fashioned
candy pull, which was held under the
patronage of Messdames Gabel, Haas
and Hubbard. on the covered veranda
facing the sea. At its close the gen tie
men Of the party were quite as sweet as
the ladies, all hands were surfeited with
the saccharine matter and nearly every
one revelled in burned hands and
fingers, XIX -four being in great demand.
]. b. Lankershim particularly showed a
psir of ruby-colored fins and it was
laughingly remarked by some that for
several days he would probably eat with
his elbows.
Notwithstanding the burns which the
hot candy Unfortunately distributed
around, every one had great good time
and ere long there will be another taffy
pull, that is, when all past burns have
healed.
