The Retail Clerks were very much in
town Friday night, and their Festival al
the Athenaum was an eminent success
from every standpoint. We might con
servatively say that between 300 and 40C
people were in the grounds during the
course of the evening. Everybody en-
ioyed themselves and nothing but com
pliments for the clerks was heard from
those who attended. The string band
engaged for the occasion dispersed good
music, and the grounds were prettily
lit up with several hundred japanese
lanterns, which cast SOFT mellow
light on the scene. We understand
that about Sl10 was realized from the
sales of the evening TIE Herald ex
tends it's congratu ations to the boys on
