 An esteemed local contemporary in the journalistic field says: At a meeting of the Non-Sectarian Inf1rmary Association Monday afternoon at the home of the President. Mrs. Robert Gage, 1t was de- cided to give a grand children's floral ball the Wednesday following Easter" This Is believed to be a mistake. There will be floral ball, assuredly, but that 1t is for grandchildren exclusively is doubted. The ball itself will unquestionably be a success. The ladies who have undertaken to see it through are sufficient guaranty for that. All sorts of special stunts will be done by the children and the act. i've participation of so many little ones ensures the attendance of parents, sis ters. cousins and aunts. Who dares deny that women have long business heads?
