Pavilion with the Festina Lente Club yes
terday afternoon He wore his overcoat,
for the atmosphere was quite chilly. He
! had begged so hard to be admitted TO the
club that the committee could not find it
In their several hearts to keep him out So
it came about that when MIR. Greenway
opened his mail yesterday morning he
found therein an invitation to the clubs
meeting as an ordinary member with no
say in the management or anything else OF
the club In fact. Mr.. Greenway is there
by Sufferance. AS gentleman at the rink
expressed it: "He begged so piteously and
appeared to be so frghtfully grief-stricken
at the prospect of being left out that we
couldn't do anything else but let him in.
The average man not having been invited
| originally would be too proud to run after
| admission, but Greenway isn't troubled
with that sort of thing. If James Brett
| Stokes, of course, had made a personal
| fight against his admittance he could never
| nave gotten in. But MIR. Stokes is every
! inch a gentleman. When he found that
| there was a disposition on Greenway's
part to force himself into the club he rec
| ognized that, being at outs with Greenway,
| 1t would be the very worst taste on his
| part to make any objection. That's all
| there is to 1t.
For the present ostensibly there is no
| difference between James Brett Stokes
and Greenway. They have buried the
! hatchet, but the grave Is so shallow that
| an ordinary gust of wind would blow the
dirt off the implement. Yet Mr.. Stokes is
The soul and life of the Festina Lente
! Club aud Mr.. GreeDway lapses into the
| same place in its meetings as the average
| obscure dude does at one of the Friday
| Night cotillons.
| Whatever feeling there may still exist
| between the two it in no wise interfered
with the enjoyment of the first meeting.
No less than 110 people have subscribed
| their SS apiece, making In all $3.50 in the
! club treasury, which will insure at least
fourteen meetings at the rink. Besides
| the club members there were many in
vited guests yesterday. 1n fact, the Ees-
| tina Lente Skating Club proved an assured
| success The meets will be on Tuesdays
and Fridays from 2:30 to 6 P. NJ, the next
one being on March * next. a good or
