The Halloween Dance.

The dance given by some of the
Louisa young people last Saturday
evening was in every respect de-
lightful affair. They asked for and
obtained the use Of the big room
In the second story of Pierce's de-
partment store as a dancing hall.
The floor is smooth and springy,
the room is large, and altogether,
1t is an ideal place for tripping the
light fantastic toe. Then they
sant to Huntington and engaged
the best music procurable, and It
was very fine, probably the best
dance music ever heard in Louisa.
The participants in this pleasant
function were among our very
incest people, augmented by num-
Der from other points.
After going as far as was proper
toward the midnight hour, halt
was called and toothsome lunch
was eaten Altogether the occasion
was a very enjoyable one.
