we had demonstration of the fact that
Pembina people are late to gather at any
evening function. Why is it?

not be strung out through the year.

In my New Years notes last week l
neglected to state that Mrs. James Ora
ham of Drayton, assisted Mrs. Judge

| Funny isn't it ? When there's church
social you can't get man TO carry pail
OF water for the dish washers but when
his lodge has public installation it
seems he can't tall over the other fellows
fast enough to get to help carry chairs or
move the piano. These men are queer
lot anyhow.
| Mesdames Charles Full and F. M.
King entertained at the home of the lat
ter on Saturday evening. About fifty
young people were present, number of
whom were from Emerson The even
ing was very pleasantly spent in games
and social entertainment. 1t was a merry
crowd and.the hands of the clock moved
all too fast to suit them. Refreshments
were served and the party dispersed at
the midnight hour having spent most
enjoyable evening.

The Degree of Honor held their an
nual public installation in Fraternity hall
on wednesday evening, and it was Ger.
: , talnly success. Members and friends
to the number of about one hundred and
fifty were gathered in the lodge room,
and they were an intelligent, good look
ing, well dressed, happy crowd ofpeople.
Mrs. M. J. Switzer acted as the installing
officer and administered her part of the
program with dignity and grace. An
able lot OF officers were installed, and 1t
is safe to guess that the affairs of the
lodge will be kept up to their usual high
standard. Mrs. Judge Kneeshaw is the
new Chief of Honor, and took charge OF
the program with the sang froid Of an old
hand at the business. The program COM
prised selections by the Short orchestra,
duet by Misses Nelson and Bates, solo by
VIM. r. Aylen, and remarks for the good
of the Order by Mrs. Switzer. Refresh
ments were served, and after singing the
National Anthem the crowd dispersed.
