The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1908-04-06

A pleasant afternoon was had Fri
day by q number of the ladies whose
male relatives are members of the
University club. A session at cards
with music and billiards formed the
amusements of the day. The ladies
day at the club will hereafter be Fri
day of every week, that day having
been found more convenient than
Thursday. the day originally named.
An affair greatly enjoyed by all at
tending was the hard times dance
given Tuesday evening at the skat-
ing rink. Many of the costumes
were unique in their oldness and
hard time look. The person, except
spectators, who wore any of the us
ual furbelows of convention unless
exaggerated out of all proportion was
the exception. The occasion was
greatly appreciated by all in attend
ance.
One OF the leading social affairs
of the month will without doubt be
the anniversary dance of the Odd
Fellows which will be given on the
night of April 81 at the skating rink.
AT Monday nights meeting of the
order committees were appointed to
attend to the various details of the
entertainment. These have already
begun their work in a manner which
leads to the conclusion of an enjoya-
BILE time in prospect.
uhfah t. tho n Anfinn
of the promoters to make one of the
memorable occasions in the social
history of the district, will be held
at the Veteran on April 20. the Mon
day following Easter. A committee
from the mine was in Ely during the
week soliciting subscriptions from
the merchants of Ely to aid in giving
the affair II possible a special train
will he secured to carry the crowd
from Shelter Ely City. Ely and other
points along the line. Hoyt's or
chestra has been secured TO furnish
the music.
The dance given Thursday evening
by the members of the Good Time
club proved social event of note.
w n1lt the nulIiDtl Vi DtiSO III dt-
tendance was necessarily limited on
account of the size of the hall of
the club. yet everyone present passed
very pleasant evening. A session
at cards. five hundred being played,
was first INDUCED in. After four
games prizes were awarded. Miss
Brock received the first ladies prize,
a silver mounted comb, while Mr..
Zadow was given the mems first
prize, a sterling silver cigar moist
ener. Miss Chamberlain was award
ed the ladies' BOBBY prize, while Mr..
Conner got the low mems prize
Both were small boxes of candy. Fol-
lowing this pastime refreshments
consisting of ice cream and cake
were served. Dancing was then in
dulged in until late hour. During
the course of the evening vocal selec-
tions by Orval Baird and Miss Rowe,
were listened to with appreciation by
the gathering.
The dance TO be given by the
Eagles on the night of April 30 is
being arranged for as rapidly as the
committee in charge can carry out
the plans they have made. The
working COMMITTEES are active in their
efforts TO make the affair the perfect
success which the last dance of the
order proved. That there will be a
large attendance is practically as
sured, as the Eagles are we'll known
for their ability as entertainers and
always give enjoyable dances.
Rehearsals for the presentation of
His Majesty, the play to be given
shortly by the Ely Dramatic club,
will probably start during the fore
part of this week and the perform
ance be given during the early part
