Selma, April 6.-(special.) )-Friday night
 the Dixie club gave its Easter german, and most brilliant event it was in every
 way Perhaps no affair of the club has been given the time and care the leader
 of the cotllon gave to the Easter german
 of 1907. There wereimore property fig-
 ures, more favors and more attention to
 the march than has been displayed in
 cotillons in Selniai in many years. The
 march began at 9:30 and was led by H. H.
 Hudson chairman of the entertainment committee, with Miss Octayia Lauderdale
 As cotillon leader, Mir. Hudson has long since been given postgraduate s diploma and the skill used in Friday nights affair showed him to be a past
 master indeed in the art.
 There were about thrty-ilve couples in line and to each of the ladies there was presented a stalk of Easter lilies. During
 the march these long -stemmed flowers
 were used in making floral bower under which the gentlemen passed. Dainty Japanese lanters, round in shape, were given out also in the march, and with
 the other lights put out presented a scene that drew applause from the guests and chaperons.
 During the german various favors were given, a rather charming conceit being
 the wide sombrero Mexican hats worn
 by the young men, while the orchestra played La Palona."
 After the intermission there was pre- sented to each of the ladies a souvenor
 pin of gold and enamel, the words Dixie Easter, 1907," being tastefully enameled on the pin. These souvenirs are highly prized and valued by the fortunate pos sessors
