pose of the banquet was to bring the repre-

gether as a class and to cultivate a more
social feeling among them, with the ultimate
object Of organizing local association, with
which such events shall become a regular
feature.

The menu card was made up with numer-
Gus railroad terms and vernacular express
sions embellishing the several courses.
Baked fish on fiat cars" is a sample. While
this feature was being disposed of music

natured roasts Of the different agents and
roads. Just as the boys sat down package

pliments of George M. Entrikin, assistant
general freight agent OF the Port Arthur, and
box of cigars with the regards of C. j..
Lane, assistant freight traffic manager Of
the Union Pacific, both donors receiving a
vote Of thanks.
A program of toasts was then taken up,
in which there was much seriousness as well
as an abundance of local hits and bright
humor, contributing to the pleasure Of an
enjoyable occasion. 1t was midnight when
the gathering began to break up, and each
one expressed feeling that the evening had
been well spent and that good would re-
suit from the meeting not only to those
who participated, but indirectly to the roads
represented.
