Scranton deserves the reputation OF
being a very religious city as well as
an electric city. Not only has there
been very few formal social functions
during the period since Lent set IN, put
even the theaters are tabooed. IN
practice as we'll as theory the society
people of the city appear to have
donned sackcloth and ashes. For the
remainder of Lent there will be the
same stagnation in the social world,
but after Easter there promises TO De u
season of great gayety.
Among the post-Lenten events that
is already being considered is large
ball at the rockingham for the bene-
fit of one of the city's charitable insti-
tutions on April 6.
