Of Jefferson-we flung new banners to
the breeze-we dedicated ourselves to
the cause Of humanity. We assumed

 crowded with social events as was the lmmeiil,e period before the forty days of sack cloth and lSheS usually IS, vel some of the So> tat dOingS were in evervway notable. Particularly was this the case in regard Co the '. M C. A. basket party given on the eve of WaShington'S birth dav. when the fancy colonial costumes were a plelSurable surprise. The lunch baskets and the comparative large sums at which they were auctiOned eff, were also both a surprise and pleasure financially to the promoters ot the pleasing function. The next evening the Deutscher Vsrein gave Washington ball, which was an e,ioyable affair and largely attended. The ladies' aid society of the Presbyterian church held a successful social, and there were several private parties and dances,
 The colonial basket party given ln the Y.M. C. A. hall Thurs lay night In honor of the anniversary Of the birth of George Washington. was one of the most largely attended and successful events on the social calender Of the week. The inns moral George was faithfully imperSonated by Mr. j. T. Hlyne and Narthl was ideally represented in the peison oi Mrs. C. A. Sehlbrede The striking old cos tunes of the forefltherS of the nation gave an air oi dignity Co the situation, vet not SO much bu, good cheer and merriment pre- walled.

Ford, Heatock, Flynn, Latimer, Evans Snyder. Hillerv, and Pearce and Miss Case. Miss Whiting imperSonlted Pceohontls. and assisted Martha in re- celving. Others who assisted R Rreceiving were Capt.

 The White House" was oyerilowinG with guests, and after the presentations a musical and literary program was given, opening with the singing Of America by the entire gathering. MeSSrS. Shorthill, Royal and Reid, comprising the '. M C. A. ouarte,ie. sang a song composed for the occasion by French brothers; Miss Whit ing read, Ben Randall sang, and Mrs. Guilbault sang.
 Next. hfty-three baskets, each filled with luncheon for two, provided by fftv- three members Of the Ladies Auxiliary Co Y. N. C. A., under whose auspices the affair was given. were sold at auction, Dr. !. H. Moore and Ray Randall acting as auctioneerS. The bidding was spirited, ans George Washington gal,antlv outbid his fellows by paving sI3 for his lunch- con. He bought Marthl's basket. Mr. Phillip W. Snider all but go, the honor but had L. be satisfied with another lunch' con. Several Of the baskets were Of beau- ,iful design. and represented ships, blnjoS and other articles handsomely adorned. The procedS amounted to sI2s and 20 Co the Y. N. C. A. fund.
