GAY GREENSBORO
And What Was Done by Her Society Folks During the Week of
 the Holidays.

GREENSBORO, Jan. 4.-[Special Corre- spondence. ]-During all these long weeks we have neither been dead nor sleeping. Our city has been thoroughly alive and has kept due pace with our neighboring towns in matters of business, traffic and general progress. The march of time marks for us only steady improvement and growth of our beautiful little city.
 MT. Morris Stinehart of Forkland, Ala. has come back to live at this, his old home, and has purchased lot in the business center of the town, torn away the wooden buildings and has in their stead two eIe- gant new brick stores now nearing com- pstion, which, when finished, will be an ornament to the business portion of Main street.
 MT. Sydney Dunlap has purchased a pretty lot on Electricity avenue and has a beautiful little cottage in course of erec- tion.
 Socially, we for the past few months have not been so gay as has been our usual custom. but with the coming of the holiday season our social circle has awakened from it's lethargy and for the past ten days Greensboro has been truly typical of itself, and never in the history of this levity lov- ing village has there been such round of festivities.
 One of the most pleasant social events was fecsption rendered Misses Inge, Wal Ter, Pastenr, Cobbs and Stickney of the NODl0 lOSlltul6 Dy I16SudIueS h, I. SJlCk- ney aud Helen Pickens, at the residence of the latter lady, on tue night of the 24th. A most dellghtfu evening was spent in dancing. A magnificent supper was served.
 On the night of the 26th Miss Susie Wal Ter, a sweet and pretty Noble institute girl, was ''at home at euchre" to her many young friends. The parlors were beauti- fully decorated with evergreens and mistle- toe, and most delicious repast was served at the conclusion of the game.
 rtx,srt members of the Euterpian club, in honor of our visitors, was an occasion long to be remembered. All of the couples to the german as . theater party first attended tThe Burglar,' ' which was on the board here that night. Then they repaired to the club rooms, where a most entrancing ger- man was danced, under the leadership of MT. Lee Sledge, assisted by Miss Ethel Erwin.
 The second annual reception of the young ladies' "Poets' Club'' was given on last Friday night at the mansion of Dr. r. M. Peterson, and the invitations read :: Phantufu party at the hoar of 9.'' The bonutiful parlors were filled with spectres, all ottirod ln wierd, sepuichral raiment, and tno aiEhtwas calculated to make a po11er-by th(nk Gabriel had played joke Wi14 1lg 1kyApst; but at the announce- mG~& to1 er@)pef' the ghosts refused to let &I| 1Qees remain longer covered, so the Sheets of many families were cast aside and all withdrew to the banquet hall to do justice to a most sumptuous spread. Aftee supper "pallette partyo was the pro- gramme for the evenings enter tai D ment. The contest was close and heated one,. but Miss Annie Poelluitz won the prize. This was indeed one of the most enjoyable affairs ofths season and reflected great credit on the young ladies of the club.
 One of the daH1tiest, most delightful Iuncheons to whil guests were eyer in- vited was that gi
