ENTERTAINMENTS.

A little work, little play,
Rest after an eventful day
To love and lose or love and win,
To end at last where We begin
And that is life, they say.
But let US rather put it thus:
A little work, a lot of fuss!
We think that we are 1T" and 10!
Ere first the flowers above us blow
The world forgetS our works and US.
The younger set enjoyed a pleasant
evening of dancing in the armory of
the Linsly Institute Monday evening.
1t was the annual hop given by the
Seniors of that institution, and the
class of 1900 was complimented upon
the fact that it was one of the most
enjoyable in recent years. The arm
DRY was tastefully embellished for the
occasion in flags and bunting, and &C
countrements were stacked in military
fashion in the corners, lending very
pleasing military effect to the scene.
Meister's orchestra made the melody
for the terpsichorean programme, and
the young persons danced until an ear
ly hour the following morning. Fol-
lowing is a list of those who were
present:

When meeting bells began to toll,
And pious folks began to pass,
She deity tied her bonnet on
The little sober, meeting lass
All in her neat, white curtained room,
Before her tiny looking glass.
So, nicely round her lady cheeks
She smoothed her bands of glossy hair
And innocentiy wondered if
Her bonnet did not make her fair;
Then sternly child her foolish heart
For harboring such fancies there.
So, square she tied the satin strings,
And sets the bows beneath her chin:
Then smiled to see how sweet she lookeQI
Then thought her vanity sin ~oAssS
And she must put such thought
Before the sermon should bTs away
But sitting meath thaH
,Demurely,. in her ~ preached sr,a he'd w0rd'
Yes, all the -. her bonnet still
About its preIryarson's sermon through
Much betulrtty bows and buds
Ter than the text she knew.
ThG1DSing there with peaceful face,
SIC reflex Of her simple soul,
u|ne looked to be very saint
And maybe was one on the whole
Only that her pretty bonnet
Kept away the aureole.

The rules for long suit play as adopted
by the A. D. L., at its recent congress,
have been neatly printed in pamphlet form
by the West Va. Printing Co., and are
distributed gratuitously to minister's. They
are small enough to carry in the vest
pocket and exceedingly handy for refer
ence on points in dispute.
Lent is here, and all who conform
to the cenventionalities of the period
will abstain for nearly forty days from
all forms of social enjoyment. The
devotee may regard this as hardship
in individual cases, but Dame Fashion
has decreed it, and there is no appeal
from her rulings. In many cases the
Lenten observance will only extend to
outward appearances, and opportuni-
ties will be found for quiet afternoons
at cards, or small evening dancing par
ties. There will be no large affairs
until after Easter. Each coterie of So
ciety persons has already planned for
meetings during the sack cloth and
ashes sea son. Society managed to
crowd a number of delightful affairs
INTO tho few days Immediately preced
ing Ash Wednesday, as if to take full
advantage of the brief period remain
ing in which to participate in social
pleasures without being subjected to
the criticism of the prudish.
