The second social event of the season
came off at Mrs. Hitzalberger's on Satur-
day, the 18th inst, in the shape of a wood
chopping party. Since the party was
spoken Of about two weeks ago. our young
men who used to sit on the store benches
and hold up the store corners, have been
staying at home exercising their muscles,
sharpening their saws, axes and appetites
for the great event, and they showed what
they could do, for Mrs. H. one acre lot
looked like mammoth wood pile at six
O'Clock in the evening when they were
called to supper. We have to thank Mrs.
H. for her enterprise in introducing those
wood chopping parties in our town. Since
this industry has sprung up, our young
men have formed club, calling themselves
sThe jolly wood choppers, = and on the
18th inst they gave their first social. Mrs.
H. gave them the use Of her house for the
occasion. They spent the evening in social
games, music, ETC. Near midnight
they retired to the dining room to grand
spread, which consisted of the best fruits
the Philadelphia markets could afford.
Also cake and chocolate, after which they
returned to their homes very much pleased
with Mrs. Hitzelberger in general, and
wood chopping's in particular.
