The s,e,rhinr Party.

"All things come to him WHIP waits"
and some of the ladies of Custer, who
although possessed Of excellent hus-
bands who have been waiting for a
sleighfide for at least thirty FIVE years,
had their wish gratified last Wednesday
afternoon. Mrs. Crary who is noted for
her hospitality, started ont about II
o'clock of that day with a huge bob
sleigh, drawn by four of Mr.. Crary's
beautiful horses, to see what she could
do for her friends. She found her friends
quite willing to be done by. Dishwater
was left to get cold and dishes to dry
themselves as best they could. One
lady took her bread out before it was
done, while another thought it would be
better to leave hers in the oven and put
the fire out. G<vst Of the toilets were
made on the way to the bob, but no IN
seemed to catch cold.
Among the members of the party
were: Mesdames Smith, Rogers, Tow
ner, Heidepriem, Smith, Lummis, But
terfield, Bailey, Smith, Powell, Odds,
Smith, Willis, Taylor, Jones, Hanley,
Smith, Fitch, Wood, Garlock, Smith,
Clark, McFadden, Rutkowski and Smith.
All went smoothly. and the sleigh did
not tip over as is customary on such &C.
casions, but one of its occupants did.
One of the Mrs. Smiths in her anxiety
to be Gin it" fairly leaped into the sleigh,
lost her footing and sat down. But she
| did not have time to choose her resting
place which happened to be principally
over the end Of the sleigh and it was
| only by the combined efforts of the en-
tire party, and the perfect control OF the
driver over his horses, that the good lady
was finally placed in a secure position.
Nothing further happened to mar the
pleasure of the gay party and fun was at
o premium. Mr.. Kidwell kindly took
our pictures before We were ready, but
We will try to forgive him and think it
was all for the best.
We wish to extend to Nh. and Mrs.
| Crary a vote Of thanks and We hope that
in the future it will snow often and much
in Custer.
