ELEGANT ENTERTAINMENT.
To the Faculty of Grenasls College.


One Of the most enjoyable and ele-
CANT social functions 1t has been our
good fortune to attend In many years
was that Of reception and banquet
given to the Faculty Of Grenada Col
lege on Friday eveving last, by the
members Of the ''Class Of &c.," COM
posed Of the following young ladies':
Misses Eula Dorsey, Mary Carothers,
Willie Young, Annie Fay Dubard,
Lillian Woodward, Bessie West, Court
ney Tatum, Lizzie Perry, Roumania
Townsend and Juliette Doak.
As will be seen from this list the
majority OF the class is composed OF
Grenada young ladies, and we must
confess to a feeling Of pride in realiz-
ing that our city can boast Of a bevy
OF young girls capable of originating
and carrying into effect such d splen-
did entertainment. while at the same
time we feel conscious Of an honor be-
slowed upon US by the presence Of three
such gifted young ladies as the mem-
bers Of the Senior class who are board
ing publis at the College.
Simple elegance characterized the
evening, and it was the unanimous ver'
dict Of those present that the evening 3
enjoyment coul. not have been SUR
passed. The guests, from outside the
College faculty, consisting only Of the
parents Of the day pupils and few
favored friends, began to arrive about
s o'clock, and were received in the Col
lege parlor which had been beautiful
ly decorated for the occasion in the
the class colors, green and old gold.
A select programme by members Of
the class was executed with great
spirit and elicited much applause.
Musical selections'by members OF the
faculty were also much enjoyed. A
literary game was then participated in
by all present, a prize having been
offered to the one who should be
capable OF answering the greatest
number of questions propouuded. After
much competition Miss Daisy Dye, the
accomplished teacher Of Latin and
Mathematics was declared the fort
unate winner and the prize, pin.tray
in the class colors was awarded her.

described by poets pen than this had
become under the transforming touch
Of taste and industry. The class colo.
