Before entering the room we
looked around in the hall. On
one side we saw lumber of all
sorts neatly packed on shelves.
On the other side was a pigeon
hole cabinet. 1t contained the
work of the different students
that are receiving instruction.
Each student has a place for
his own work.
Inside the room we were shown
ten model benches ingeniously
contrived and finely adapted for
work in various stages and po-
sitions. Each bench had its own
complete assortment of tools.
| At the farther end of the room
there was an assortment for
general use.
Boys and girls were busy at
work. Some seated to draw
their work on the wood to be
operated upon. Others standing
chisel in hand and mallet in the
other, cutting out desings in a
skillfull and artistic manner.
Around the room specimens Of
the work of the boys and girls
may be seen, which, considering
the little while thatthis depart
ment has been in operation, is
certainly very creditable to In
|stuctor and students alike.

Last night was a gala tine
with the members of Valley
Chapter, at their lodge room.
They had made arrangements
for a box social, and about 1880
p. M, ladies' were seen vending
their way to the hall, all carry
ing a small box, and after the
work of the Chapter was com
pleted, and adjourned, a box,
containing about so names of
members, written on slips Of
paper, cut in two pieces, and as
it became necessary to find your
partner by matching your part
of the name with the other half
of the name, then the fun COM
menced. The difficulty in find
ing your partner was in the fact
that more names were put into
the ballot box than members in
attendance, and therefore, some
only had a half name, and left
such without a partner. After
the matching of names and thy
selection hal been made. the IT,
bles were set, and then the mys-
FERROUS boxes were placed Oh
the tables and opened, display
ing sandwiches, chicken, cake,
pickles, olives, grapes, apples,
and other good things, all to he
washed down with most delici-
Gus coffee. During the meal, a
lively clatter of tongues was
heard all along the tables, c.
|necialy from the ladies and F.
wv. Myers.
After all had been satisfied,
a general good, social time was
had until a late hour, and the
members who were not present
| missed the time of their life.
On the first regular meeting
in December will be for innia-
ton of elected candidates, and
| it is desired that every member
OF the Chapter be present at
that meeting.

The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe

the territory. A majority Of them
have come to the territory aboard the
Santa Fe and thousands have alighted
from the train and have made Guthrie
their future home. The Santa Fe has
done much to make Guthrie the lead
ing city Of Oklahoma. A freight and
passenger division has been establish
ed here, round house built and other
improvements have been made by the
Santa Fe. The terminus Of the East

the terminus of the Guthrie-Kingfsher
