At the Elks' hall Friday evening one
of the most enjoyable receptions that it
has been the fortune of those who were
present to ever attend in this city was
given by Messrs. Alton, Jones, Lewis
and Schroeder. 1t was an invitational
affair and the list of invited guests was
limited to fifty. Dancing was the order
of the evening and continued until three
O'Clock. Music was furnished by Dem
yer orchestra. The supper, which con-
sisted of fruit salad, sandwiches, cake,
ice cream, coffee and numerous dainties,
was served in buffet style and the dane
ing was permitted to continue without
interruption. The function was one of
beauty in every detail, the ladies' being
attired in handsome gowns and the gen.
tlemen wearing the full evening dress.
AS the affair drew to close the hosts,
who had acquitted themselves most ad-
mirably in that capacity, were shower
ed with expressions of appreciation by
the guests for their generous hospitality
and were congratulated upon being en-
tertainers of pleasing ability.

the bottom and 15 feet deep and then

team for the knights of the cleaver, the
score being II to 6. The game was in

brilliant plays were made on both sides.
The battery for the butchers was Par

the girls remarked that the high school
boys couldn't even play marbles"
