SEASONS FIRST DANCE

The Side Rank Council of the
Catholic Order of FOreSterS gave the
first dance of the season Wednesday
evening at their new rooms in the
Wood County Bank block just erected.
The dance was an entire success, and
there was a large crowd in
attendance; so large in fact that the
rooms were crowded little at first.
After some of the spectators went
home there was more room and
though the floor was new, the dancers
overlooked this fact in having a good
time. Steib's orchestra furnished the
music in very satisfactory manner,
and dancing kept up until one o'clock.
The ladies Of the Catholic church
gave an ice cream supper in the Bog0-
ger building on Second street.
The lodge rooms in the new block
building are about completed, as are
those in the new Wood building across
the street, and more dances are
being planned for in the
near future by the different lodges
who have halls and lodge rooms, and
the seasons festivities have begun,
