and a great many Of our society peo-
pie are observing the occasion in a
variety of ways, yet among those who
are not so sacredly inclined, there
seems to be feeling Lets do some
thing to help the dull times quickly

| afternoon teas, cards, etc, have been
! given and a great many more are
! promised to be edged in during the
next few weeks to come.

there has been a genuine feeling of
lack in some direction to complete the
enjoyment of these many afternoon
! parties, and after a moments thought
from some wise brain, all joined in

moons have been displaced with an
! evening at cards. or otherwise, where
men could add to the pleasures of the
+ occasion.
