Dance 10. O. F. hall.
The Sorosis Social Club held one
of the most delightful sessions of the
season yesterday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. Will Bond, on south
seventh street. Pedro played at four
tables was the feature of the evening
and the games were enjoyed by a
large number of members, together
with guests of the club. Mrs. Will
Wallace won the first prize and Mrs.
Gehring was awarded the second.
Both the prizes were exquisite. The
house was beautiful with its decora-
tiaons of red and white flowers, the
color scheme of the afternoon being
red and white, and red carnations
were the favors. A three course
luncheon was daintily served. Mrs.
Gehring will be the hostess for the
next meeting. s IL,
The entertainment given last night
at the Masonic Temple by the East
End Dramatic Club was very sue
cessful There was large attend
ance and the program was exception
ally we'll rendered. Several fine mu-
steal selections were given which
were we'll received, but the best num-
Der on the program was a comedy
drama, entitled Diamonds I and
Hearts, the cast of which was as
follows:
Mrs. Halstead-Mrs. M. III. Watts
g. Miss Berenice Halstead-Mrs. A.
f. Stokely.
Miss Amy Halstead- Nellie
Hilbert
Miss Inez Gray-Miss Pearl War
ner.
Hannah Barnes-Mrs. Henry Shep-
pard.
Abram Barnes-M Fl. Watts.
Dwight Bradley-A. f. Stokely.
DR.. Burton-Henry Sheppard.
Sammy-Master Harry Watts.
Lawyer-William Chiles.
Sheriff Charles Hilbert.
The stage settings were excellent
- and the plot an interesting one wo-
ven around missing will, some sto-
len diamonds which the heroine is
made to appear to have stolen, and a
strong love story. The entire cast
did excellent work, no one probably
shining as star more than another
Mrs. Sheppard, as an eccentric ole
maid, was very amusing and A. f
Stokely, as the "vilian" and Mrs
Watts, as the "lady of the house,
carried their parts well, as die
also the minor characters. After the
program a short social time was spen
and an informal reception held.
