After nearly two weeks of fun and en-
ioyment, the time has come 1or resaiilhs
work once more. These holidays have
been scarcely more than a pleasant dream
to the college student. Unlike the dream,
however, which is so soon forgotten, the
memory of the pleasant times Will i've
long in the hearts and minds of each ana
every student. Even though 1t may De
hard to get back to work, we 1eei WIN
Whittier that, There is life alone III auty
done, And rest alone In STRIVING flye
and a half months of solid work 10 DC
COMPENSATED for by three and hail more
of fun is not such poor prospect: But
let us look not so far into the future'
rather let US see about the pleasant tlmes
we have had during the past week or Two.
Several very pleasant affairs have cnar-
acterized the past few weeks. Whlle 1e"
in number, the entertainments nave oeen
of a most ENJOYABLE nature. Those VINO
were fortunate enough to be present reel
proud that Bamberg affords such pleasah'
and graceful young hostesses.
AN INFORMAL RECEPTION.
Last Thursday night Miss Kate Pooser
gave her young friends what was first IN
tended to be a sociable, but which was
afterwards turned into what we shall
term IAN informal reception. A large
number of couples were present and all
shared alike the good time which was
meted out so splendidly. The great
variety of games played was pleasing
feature. There were games IN which
every one could take part Perhaps Ping
Pong proved to be the most popular game
of the evening. Fruit was served in
abundance. The beautiful display, OF flre-
works was certainly an enjoyable part.
The whole evening passed OIL so quick
ly and pleasantly that when the midnight
hour was tolled out upon the still night
air. it was hard to realize that it was SO
late.
MISS HAYS ENTERTAINS.
"She certainly was at home in a most
charming manner" This remark was
made bv one in speaking of the "Parlor
Tete" given by Miss Addys Hays on last
Friday evening. From eight-thirty until
twelve o'clock the ball OF enjoyment was
rolling in one continual round OF happl-
ness, erasing, as it rolled, all thoughts or
awaiting tasks from the minds OF those
present. Progressive up jinks" was the
chief amusement of the evening. The
prizes which were awarded to those who
played the best game were silver hat
brush, won by Mr. T. 0. OFT, of Columbia,
and silver nail file, won by Mrs. II. +.

among the young people of Bamberg on
last Monday evening. Miss LleWhe BAN

| friends at her home on Railroad Avenue.
At nine o'clock the couples began to
arrive and were received with great grace
by Miss Bambcrg. 1t was not long before
all began to make merry. Until late
hour there never appeared a lull in the
merrimcnt. When the game of PRO
cressive up jinks" was discontinued and
prizes had been awarded to Miss Lillian
