was prettily decorated with cypress ana

tributed by business firms of the CITY,
were raffled off by number. There was
a Christmas tree for the little folks ana
candy was distributed free by Santa
Claus The program included singing
by the children; speech by the presl-
dent. ]. c. Roy; defamation by MISS
Elmer; musich by the Maennerchor;
number of solos and duets by members

and is in very prosperous condition.
as the elaborate fittings of their club
rooms in Williams hall will testify.
THE ROSE TOURNAMENT.
The tournament of roses fete on New
, Years day is likely to be success, but
nevertheless the management is not just
satisfied with the way the members OF
the association pay up their dues. Par-
ties are urged to enter carriages IN the
tournament parade. 1t will cost them
Eothing, the cost being borne by the
whom pay s.. All property owners
recognize the good which the tournament
will do them. 1t will bring patrons from
all parts Of the nation. 1t Will be widely
advertised, as all the large California
papers will have representatives here,
as we'll as the Associated and United
Press and many eastern periodicals.
All the railroads have issued announce
ments of special rates to this city on
New Years day. Liveries and restau-
rants will be widely patronized for one
day at least, and it is only reasonable
to presume that some of the general
prosperity Immediately resulting from
the tournament of roses Will be perrna-
nent. The directors, realizing this, are
giving freely of their time and funds
to make the affair grand success. They
ask some help from the citizens, who. by
entering vehicles in the parade and be-
coming members of the association, can
lend substantial help. This is only a
reasonable request, as both the mornin g
and afternoon events of the tournament
are free to all.
