The usual salute to the colors took
place; the customary practice OF bowling
to the patronesses was followed and the
guests marched aroun the room a la
cakewalk. visiting their friends in the

dance to her partner, a dashfng looking
officer, who was cycling his left shoulder

proceeded to hunt for the missing orna-
owner p~hilosophically said:
