ner last Friday evening. given in
honor OF some of the teachers and
their friends. who are leaving Bis

was decorated beautifully and ar
tisticaIly with flowers and ferns in
riotous color and profusion. and

black marguer.tes, in all their
SNOWY splendor. formed the priaci-

The entry into the dining rooEi
was the signal for much merriment
and laughter, it being turned into

of the room. a COW complacently
nodded her head at the guests. while
a peaceful looking cat drowsed ir
another end. Goats, pigs. mules, rab-
bits. peacocks. birds Of all descrip-
ton, chickens innumerable and OF
all colors and sizes, and last but
not least. Chanticier himself. proudly
rearing his head, formed the motley
throng of the barnyard. Red. orange
and gilt. the Chant'cler colOrs, were
flying in ribbon streamers all over
the room and table. which latter
was the masterpiece OF The entire
dinner. Running the entire length Of
the center of the table was a tiny
picket fence with a gate on either
side. enclosing a plot OF sod and
grass. in a corner of which was
half q dozen little yellow and black
live chickens. who furnished the
entore fun and merriment for the
guests during The dinner. They
chirped cheerfully and peeped
through the fence. looking for the
crumbs that were thrown to them
by the diners
