In response to numerous requests, the
Church street division of the V. l. S. has
decided to give Ghost Party and dance in
Denslow Hall, Monday evening, Apr. 14th,
and a full explanation has been requested
to avoid MISUNDERSTANDING. The ladies
only will dress as ghosts, and will send
invitations to the gentlemen, who are
requested to be in the hall before s
O'Clock, where they will find the ghosts
assembled. The grand march will begin
at s, sharp, for which the ghosts will
select the partners invited by them. At its
conclusion each gentleman will guess aloud
the identity of his partner. If correct. she
will furnish the ice cream. If incorrect,
this pleasant duty will devolve upon him.
The unmasking will follow the guessing,
before the dancing begins, SO that those
who find it unpleasant to dance while mask
ed will be relieved OF this difficulty. 1t will
be ladies' night, and, reversing the usual
order, the ladies will buy the dance tickets.
The list of gentlemen's names will be found
at E. F. Staples store, and the ladies are
requested to check early the names of those
invited. The committee wish it understood
that the invitation is general to all to be
present and take part in the dance, whether
dressed as ghosts or not, and whether re-
ceiving written invitations or not. Those
coming simply as spectators will pay 10
cents. Good music will be furnished, and it
is hoped that large attendance will make
the affair the success which its worthy OBJ
ject deserves.
