A practical application of the
policy of reciprocity is seen in the
visit of the Minneapolis Camera

come, entertained them generously.
They reciprocate with thanks and a
contribution of $40 to the Improve

itself:

The Cosgrove Orchestra opened
the entertainment with a Grand
Concert. 1t was one of the musical
treats of the season, some of the
numbers were of such high class
excellence as is rarely heard out

were keenly appreciated. The
concert gave the most unqualified
satisfaction to all present and the
Cosgroves fully deserve all that has
been said in their praise. 1t was
the finest ever given by the Catholic
Foresters and will long be remem-
bered with pleasure by all who at
tended.-Eau Claire Leader.
The New Richmond and River
Falls Highs played a good game
of ball on the public school grounds
here Thursday afternoon. The
River Falls boys were having things
about their own way in the first half
of the game with seven to their
credit against one for the New
Richmond boys. Assuming that
it would be impossible for their an
tagonists to catch up and get ahead
of them the Falls boys seemed to
get careless and permitted the New
Richmond boys to edge along until
the score stood four to seven. Then
the Falls got another score-eight
to four. Now New Richmond got
there with both feet and the scores
were even-eight and eight. Ex-
element was running hi@h and it
looked as if it were New R,chmond'S
game when the Falls got in and
made one by scratch-River Falls

seemed to be fairly and we'll played.
There was no scrapping among the
players and the spectators, includ-
ing the rooters, were on their pro-
per behavior.
One of the most enjoyable social
functions of the year took place last
Friday evening at the home of Pres.
w. ]. Brier. The event was the an
nual reception TO the graduating
classes given by President and Mrs.
Brier. The broad front porch,
draped in Normal co1ors aud other
wise decorated with large rugs,
easy chairs, and coy corner with
it's punch bowl kept full of frappe,
made the exterior the attractive part
of the house. Among the guests
were the graduates of the Full
Course, those completing the Ele-
mentary Course, the members of
the Normal faculty, Regent and Mrs.
Lord, Mrs. C. V. Guy and Mrs. w.
D. Parker, about seventy-fve alto
gether. During the evening lunch
con was served in the dining room
by the Misses Carrie and Eva HendA
erson and Katherine Snodgrass.
Tho this is one of the formal socie-
ty events every one left with the
feeling that President and Mrs.
Brier have a very happy way of
making people feel at home and
that the pleasure of receiving is as
great as that of being received.
