a Most Enjoyable Occasion.

The young people of our town en-
joycd one OF the finest entertainments
last Wednesday evening that they
have had the pleasure of enjoying for
some time. 1t was given at the beauti.
ful and lovely home of Mr. and Mrs.
w. L. BreedcD
At eight,thirty o'clock the invited
guests began to arrive with their part.
ners. They were met at the front door
hy Mr.. and Mrs. Breeder and ushered
into lovely parlor cooled by electric
fans. About nine o'clock all the guests
had arrived and Mrs. Breeden and
that charming young lady Miss Lyl
Crosland began to rair off the boys
and girls for them to have chat for
Il minute or two After the chat Mrs
Breeden made all assemble in the par
lor and then she told us how we were
to select our partners.
Slips of paper had been cut and on
them we're written some wise savings.
The boy or rather the prince, had Just
a part of the quotation on his while
his partner, whoever she may be, had
the rest on hers. The slips were dis
trlbnted and then began the wild
search for partners. Soon it was over
with and all were satisfied Then Mrs
Brecdcn arose again and said that now
as each prince had his princess, they
must have a prince and princess to
rule over all of the princes and
princesses. She then asked her son
kistier to select one. He selected Miss
Rosa Mcmillan. Now Miss Mcmillan
had to select prince and she selected
Master Henry Boucher. The Prince
had to take the minor princes and
princcsscs up and introduce them to
the Princes The name of each mem
hcr Of the couple had to begin with
the letter 7. The place they came
from must begin with the letter p.
And the presents they were supposed
to bring to the Princess mnst begin
with the letter II.
After theg game was over each couple
was presented with a bag of peanuts
and then sent out In about twenty
minutes Dell was runS and all re-
turned into the parlor. Mrs. Breeden
now called up the four graduates and
presented to them purse as present.
.Aiicr this presentation tables were
made ready and all served to delicious
cake and cream.
When we all returned to the parlor
and Miss Lyl Crosland played the
Swancc River and the yoang folks
gathered around her and sang.
1t was something after eleven when
we began to look for someone to take
home. Then we began passing out
and rs each passed out he and she ex,
pressed how much they had enjoyed
the evening
Many tn nks to Mr.. and Mrs
Brccden, Miss Helen and Master Kis-
tier for their kindness.

AN INSTITUTION
TO BE PROUD {: U D OF OF;
Growth Of Life Insurance Com
pany Of Virginia Scarcely
Less Than Wonderful.

The steady growth from year to year
,f the business OF the Life Insurance
Company of Virginia is scarcely less than
wonderful
From 1857, when the premium income
was less than 100000, each years bust 'sit
ness has shown substantial Increase
ever that OF the year before, and this.
too. In spite OF periods OF depression In
the general business OF the country.
TIL, year 1903 was no exception and the
gross income increased during that year
from sl.3ss,24s.16 In 1907; to S1.57o. 359.5l.
and insurance In force increased from
s.1 .4l6a32 to s3e,7l7,ial, an increase OF
IS, 100 in one year. by far the largest
increase In any ono year OF the com
lpany's history. e5.93
II is worthy Of note that the increase
in gross income for tho past year was
nearly twice as much as the total pre-
MUM income of 1857 and considerably
creator than the premium income two
years lator. In 1880.
This steady and continuous growth
from year to year is the best proof that
could be offered that the company Is
steadily and continuously growing IN pop
ulal favor. It is gratifying to be able
"a make such q statement concerning q
Richmond institution. The Life lnsur-
ance Company OF Virginia Is an honor
not on,y to its management, but to the
city OF Richmond, for 1t Is something
more than q business successful IS ~ TIL
unph OF honesty and integrity, Apart
trcm this, it is useful institution In
this community, because It gives employ
mcnt from year to year to many OF the
c:ty's best people.
