Tables We're spread in the main

After the regular dinner was over, the
members pushed back their chairs and
indulged in college songs and college
yells At the head of the long series
of tables was a gloriously decorated
Christmas tree. When the singing was
over Santa Claus Burdette took his
place in the center of the room and
began to hand out the presents to the
various members.
There was gift for every one. Each
member had contributed some gift for
some particular friend or victim, which
was supposed to be emblematical of
the hobby or weakness of that person.
Every member Of the club had to come

After a search through the medium

nibal S. Strayer.

and daughters of deceased brothers
and sisters. Attorney Adams located
these persons in a score of states, and
it only remained to find Strayer. A
reply to a letter addressed to Strayer
in Guatemala, which was forwarded
to Gatun Pass, Panama, was received
yesterday. Strayer said he was work
ing in an office connected with the
building of the canal and the money
will be forwarded to him there. When
receipt is acknowledged the attorney
will render his final account to the
