Music Hall was crowded to the doors
and second tables were set. The program
was well rendered and well received,
applause being very frequent. Lack of
space forbids an extended report. Chair
man Steele presided very gracefully.
Major Huffaker delivered a short but i'm
pressiVe address and was warmly ap-
plauded. The banquet tables groaned
with good things and the hall was taste
fully decorated. Special praise is due
Mrs. Hettenhausen and Mrs. Beemer for
hard work and good management.
