The Independent Order of Foresters,
Court Mateo No. 3S43. gave most en-
joyable entertainment on Wednesday
evening last upon the occasion. of the
dedication of their new hall, 1916 East
Seventh street, the audience in attend
ance filling it almost to its utmost ca
pacity. The address Of the evening was
delivered by the deputy supreme chief
ranger and organizer of Court Mateo,
William r. Uber, his topic being The
Aims and Objects of Our Order. The sub
ject was presented in a most decidedly
practical and at the same time interest
ing manner.
The program as rendered was as fol-
lows: Overture-Orchestra. Address of
welcome-Chief Ranger A A. Bridges
Flute solo-Frank Dresser. Address, d.
s. c. r. William r. Uber. Recitation
Miss Violet Thayer. Vocal solo--Miss
Lenora Patterson. Recitation-Miss
Carrie White. Dialogue-Modjeska
Dramatic club. Piano solo-Prof. c. w.
Pine. Recitation-Miss Edith Humph-
rey. Observation-Disclosures Hawkins.
At the conclusion of the program, ice
cream. cake and lemorade were served
to the audience. A feature of the occa-
sion was the mystery surrounding a
large pound cake, in which small card
had been placed. the object being to
present a. lady's gold watch to the for
tunate holder of the piece OF cake con-
tanning the card. Not having sold all
the coupons, and no one having received
the marked card. the remainder of the
cake was 'auctioned off, Brother Uber
being the fortunate bidder. The re-
matnder of the evening was utilized in a
social dance. The committee in charge
is to be congratulated upon the great
success.
