Early in the evening the members
gathered together in every room In the
spacious clubhouse, and the word was
passed round that they were there only
to enjoy themselves, and that good fel-
lowshlp was to be the keynote Of the
hour. Old tales, that had been told i
hundred times before, went the rounds
and were greeted with roars of laughter
lust as il they had not lost all their spies
OF newness. New stories were inventet
for the occasion, and jokes that had beer
treasured up for many Il day just fol
