A little hop at this residence Of DR..

keep the evening record unbroken and
to keep the young folks from dying of
ennul.
II were the weather man, which Pm
not NOR likely to be, for I've trouble en-!
ough OF my own, 1t seems to me could
regulate things to suit all parties con-
cerned little better than Its being done
ust at the present writing.
Inotice the smiling face of our own
Will Coats on the street since Sunday.
Will says he likes his new work very
well and if he could only set Pembina
down i'll Bismarck he'd be satisfied. That
wou'd be nice for Will, but I'd feel sorry
for Pembina
The Conmy residence was the scene
OF much gayety Thursday night, the oc-
caslon being pan party i'll honor of
Miss Currie, of Tyncr. Fun and irolic
ran high until late hour. The house
and veranda were PRETTY decorated
with vines and Chinese lanterns. The
even ming was perfect and everybody had
a good time. 1t goes without saying
that elegant refreshments were served.
The two new teaehers-Nliss Hayden,
OF Coggswell, S. d.; and Mrs. Fritz, OF
St. Cloud, Mimi, sister Of Miss Moran
arrived aluday to take their position
i'll the CITY schools. We extend them d
hearty welcome. NJ SIS Moran has been
in poor health all summer and was un-
able TO come, SO did the next best thing
an sent ner sister. Her many friends
hope she may speed y recover.
The young oiks Of Pe,nbina were in
luck again Friday night, having received
invitations daintiIy crowded into wal
nut shell to attend a party given by Mes
DANES A and w. C. Short, at the home
OF the former III houor of their neice,
Miss CorInne Short. This is The whole
thing III d nutshell, SO to speak. About
fifty guests were present. The git,
found their partners by fishing and there
wasn't a boy in the room who wouldn't
jdmp at a gum drop. A feature Of the
evening was the Illustrating of popular
songs Of the day and the manner in
which some Of them were done shows
there are no flies on Pembina young
D ~op'e.
I1+',e ladies' afternoons are hen part
les, then presume the launch ride given
by Mr.. aud rNfs, T. X. Shaw, in honor of
Miss Perrin, on ''..4sss!ay evening, should
be termed puIl,- >sF.v, for with the
exception of the ca AID first mate Of
the vessel the NJ { t5rrsuas Oh were con-
spicuous BY their ni3sense. Thh girls say
they could have gotten along without
these two alter they reached West Lyite
Tor they had to walk back, anyhow. The
details OF the wreck, as told by one Of
the crew, are somewhat as follows: Pilot
Jonah Sir While taking en- observation
OF The moon over the bows, made roll-
ing hitch i'll his tarpaulin toggery an:'
fou'ed the main bobstay. Of course the
bobstay couldn't bob, and the cutwater
to which it is bolted couldn't cut water;
SO the cutter stopped as still as a dead
eye in the main shrouds. The flying jilo
flew away, but fortunately for the lives
of the crew the staysail stayed. Commo
dore Tom yelled to use the spanker on
Jonah, but it was found to be stretched
out on bum, and the tarry crew ans
wered back Ito quit his gaff." The
Commodore then shouted at the tip top
of his snoreous tones, ''Let go the an
chor!" and Jonah in the bows meekly
declared OH honor that 'he never had
hold of it." The rest Of the crew, not
understanding the language of the sailor
commodore, made a pun and hurried to
yank 'er to shore. And SO their lives
were sarved and Jonah.will never fmore
''feed the fishes" over the bows.
