The Banquet.
Shortly after 10 o'clock the guests
OF the city and the Flathead County
Horticultural society took their seats
in the dining room of the West hotel
where covers had been laid for $50

decorated and the tables certainly
were most daintily spread with cut
glass, china and silver, with cut
flowers and potted plants as decor
ations.
The tables were arranged from east
to west extending the full length of
Inc room.
Mayor Griffin. POSTMASTER, occupie
a poslllon at the heau of the south
table, and on his right President
Emery and on the left First Vice

Good cheer was the worn from the
start, and when POSTMASTER Griffin
gained the attention of the guests 4
perfect round of merriment seemed
to prevail
Mr.. Griffin after a few character
istic and fitting remarks gave way
to Mr.. Whiteside. who on behalf 1T
the Flathead County Horticultural So
ciety presented the State society a
pize cup, which it is hoped will in
spire friendly competition in fruit
raising. President Emery on
behalf of the society accepted the
gift with few appropriate express
ions Of appreciation. Messrs Mac.
donald, Dunsire and Phillips then
sang, I'VE Are Ma Fou," but their
actions SO plainly contradicted their
words that the POSTMASTER voiced
the sentiments of the guests in sug-
costing that the singers be sent hon. e
in cab. Prof. Emery responded 10
the toast, Our Guests" in a happy
manner. He said that the society
had been royalty entertained and
that they would never forget the
pleasures enjoyed and the friends
made at the Kalispell meeting.
Mr.. R. N. Sutherlin of White Sui
phur Springs responded to the toast
''The State Horticultural Society,""
and predicted a grand future for
that organization and the fruit indus
try of the state.
Mr.. A. l.. Stone of Missoula re-
sponded to "The Ladies'" to their IS
pecial delight. He said there was
nothing on earth to compare with a
red-cheeked, juicy apple or true
hearted girl and thanked the
Lord we can produce both in
Montana. 1.-The Bitter Root is al
ways ready and willing to blow its
own horn, but we recognize that if
we are not beaten, we have at least
dangerous rival in the field of hor-
ticulture and fair women in the Flat
head valley" He paraphrased the
familiar lines, "Oh Woman in Her
Hours of Ease" something after this
fashion:
''Oh woman in her hours of ease,
Uncertain, coy and hard to please,
But taking her with Flathead wine,
You bet your life she's awful fine"
The banquet ended with Mr..
Stones response. Many of those
present adjourned TO the opera house
where the G.. A. R. bali was in pro-
.gress, and where they enjoyed them
serves thoroughly.
