Governor Cummins was the
guest of honor at the second
annual banquet given at Ann
Arbor by the Iowa Club, con-
sisting of students in the law
school from the Hawkeye state.
We quote part of the report of
the meeting, which shows that
a Missouri Valley boy was
POSTMASTER, and that the meet
ing was a very interesting and
profitable one:
After the dinner was served
and cigars were lighted the
guests gave themselves over to
speech making. T. V. Bird, a
junior law student, and one of
the most popular students in
his department., was toastmas-
ter. Mr.. Birds home is at Mis-
souri, Valley, Iowa, and on ac-
count of his excellent knowl-
edge of the traditions, re-
sources and progress of the
Hawkeye state he made his in
Productions most interesting
and called for very appropri-
| ate toasts.

K. and L. Of S. Ball

The annual ball Of the
knights and Ladies OF Security
was held at Fountains hall last
evening and as usual was a
very successful affair. The nall
was tastefully decorated with
the lodge colors, which gave it
a pleasing appearance. The
music was furnished by Wha-
ley's orchestra of Council
Bluffs and they were appreciat-
ed very much. This order has
always made it a feature of
their entertainments to give
one large ball each year and
this has always been held on
st. Patricls's day, but this year
that day came on Sunday and
hence it was held on the follow
ing night. The Knights and
Ladies' of Security have a large
following in this city and vicin-
ity, and beside their dances are
we'll attended by their many
friends, who state that they al
ways have an enjoyable time.
The lodge has many member:
in this city and is growing rap
idly, owing no doubt to the
friendliness of all it's members
and the efficiency of it's officers.
The dancers enjoyed themselves
until an early hour this morn
ling, when all went home feeling
that they had had a most
pleasant evening and also feel
ing that the knights and Ladies
know how to entertain their
guests.
