The ball given last Friday
evening at the Opera House by
the ladies Of the D. of H. was
largely attended and was
thoroughly enjoyed by all pre-
sent. The ladies served the
supper on the stage, which is said
to have been a fine spread. The
ladies were highly elated over
the success of the affair both
from a social and financial stand
point. Everybody reported an
excellent time.
The weather the past week
has been simply delightful, what
little snow was on the ground
has disappeared and the air IS as
balm1y and warm as a July day.
One has but to spend a winter in
North Dakota, like the present
one, to thoroughly enjoy winter
weather. Manv of our eastern
friends have the mistaken idea
that during the winter months
North Dakota is unfit for habita-
ton and that if a person is not
hugging a hard coal fire is apt to
freeze too death. We wish to in
form them that such is not the
case but far from it. Our win
tiers are far more healthy than
the heavy wet atmosphere of
some OF the eastern and central
states. Come to North Dakota
and spend your winters and en-
JOY good health.
