nature of the program had not been

and briefly, fittingly and usually IN a
humorous manner Judge Berry de-
scribed the part the characters de-
picted had played in Kentucky life.
However, before the opening of the
program Mrs. II. b. Gessert at the
piano played Dixie and the guests
sang the old melody with enthusiasm
and pleasure.

A Memorable Affair Was
the Kentucky Evening

Back to the old Blue Grass state,
back to the dark and bloody
ground" back to the land of Boone,
Shelby, Clay. Prentice. Marshall. Wat
erson, Carlisle, Hardin and of hun
dreds of other history makers, were
carried the members of the Grand
Junction Southern club last evening.
Beyond a doubt the Evening In Old
Kentucky was one of the most en-
joyable and wholesome social gather
ings and entertainments of the win
ter.
The Kentucky members OF the
Southern club were the hosts and
hostesses of the evening and they en-
tertained with the true spirit of the
far-famed and Justly famed Kentucky
hospitality.
In spite of the numerous counter
attractions and meetings about sixty
members of the club were in attend
ance last evening and these will not
soon forget the pleasures of the oc-
casion
Traditions. historical narratives
and features, memories of days gone
by, these combined with the congenial
spirit and hospitality of the South as
whole, characterized the Evening
in Old Kentucky"
The guests began to assemble about
O'Clock. There was no mistaking
the scene of the gathering. 1t was
at the large and pleasant home of
Mr.. and Mrs. X. C. Walker at 730
Chipeta avenue. Over the door leau-
ing from the brilliantly lighted porch,
was big streamer bearing the word.
Kentucky"
The guests were seated as they ar
rived in the parlor of the home and
an half hour was spent In pleasant
exchange of greetings.
In the large dining room. opening
off of the parlor temporary stage
had been arranged, hidden by cur
tain.
Judge Sam. b. Berry, himself a
typical and loyal Kentuckian. was
master of the ceremonies and after a
brief but most entertaining and ap-
propriate opening address Judge
Berry presented the various features
of the delightful and unique program.

gram and then dainty refreshments
were served by the Kentucky ladies.

sandwiches, salad. pickles, coffee and
followed by cake and peach cider.
With Mrs. S. NJ. Boyer at the piano

This means that exacting workman

of boys and girls no larger than those
who hang up their Christmas stockings
in America, employed throughout the
year in Germany in making toys. Most
of. them are engaged in the production
of wooden toys. The peasants of the
Saxon Ore mountain region get little
blocks of wood from the factories in
the fall and all through the long winter
days and evenings the whole family
works away, producing wooden horses,
wooden soldiers, painted Santa Clauses,
Noahs Arks, wooden wagons and
other toys Each member of the
family makes some particular toy and
sticks to it. One man will make wood
en- horses. and would be a complete
failure at turning out wooden cows.
Another makes elephants, but could not
possibly make a horse. Men have been
known to work on one kind of toy for
20 years in succession

TT is no small task to make a quarter
of a million tons of playthings each
-. year for the children of the world
The mere statement that this means
10000 carloads of toys is sufficient to
indicate that the industry is a sig
nificant one. and that it requires the all
the year round labor of thousands of
people to supply the annual demand
of Santa Claus. The center of the metal
toymaking world is somewhere in the
nefghborhood Of Sonneberg and Nurem-
burg, Germany. In those districts they
have studied the question of universal
child taste so carefully that they are
able to delight equally the youthful
American, the Japanese child, the Mex
lean, the Eskimo, or the Malay of the
South Seas.
Making Metal Toys.
The making of metal toys is concen-
though in some cases the separate parts
are made and painted in the homes OF
the peasant classes. In the making OF
tin toys the first process is to cut out
the pieces of tin from which the toy is
to be shaped. Other machines, driven
by large power engines, press the va
rious parts into the required shape,
and then they are ready for assembling
and painting Some of the more COM
plicated metal toys pass through at
least $50 hands before the plain metal
becomes the finished toy. In days gone
by the completed plaything needed
only to be approximately like the real
thing it represented. But the present
day child is not satisfied with an indif-
ferent imitation; he wants an exact du-
plicate, except in size, of the original
