BASE BALL DANCE.
CafareIIi's Orchestra Will Furnish
TIusiC==Good Time Insured.

Everyone who enjoys dancing
should plan to attend the dance to be
given by the base ball boys at the
armory next Tuesday evening.
There's a good time in store for
everyone who goes to help good
cause. The boys have long felt the
need of a fence for their grounds,
and have been laying plans for some
time, but rather than ask the people
of Morris for a donation in the start,
they will endeavor to raise most Of
the funds, and do their part first.
The present grounds are inadequate
for the support CT a good ball team,
and the only remedy is a fence, so
that when people go to see a game
they will go with the expectation of
remurerating the entertainers.
AS the boys endeavor to secure the
best ball games available, they be-
Iieve in furnishing good dance music,
and have retained Cafarelli's orches
ira for the occasion. Attend the
dance, enjoy yourself, and help fence
the ball grounds.
