BIG SHOW
SATURDAY

The Fort Gibbon Social and
Dramatic Club is planning what
promises to be the most success
full vaudeville program of the
season for Saturday evening of
this week The special features
include sketches and songs in
Irish and Dutch monologues, dia,
logues, meSmeristic and sleight-
ofhand exhibitions, club swing
ing, tumbling, comic moving pic
lures and popular illustrated
songs. Among the stars who are
expected to appear are Messrs.
Tobin, Dougherty, AnniS, Kin,
ger, Otto, Hughes, Burns. Duna-
way, Winterstein, Wright, Valen-
tine and Mitchell. As this event
marks the close of the active sea
son for the social club it is de
sired to make it one Of the most
popular. A nominal charge of
admission, SO cents, will be made
to all outside of the post people,
to whom the invitation is compli
mentary.
The social club has been one
of the strongest features in the
post for the promotion of social
features, numbering in it's mem
bership the major portion of the
garrison. The month of March
marks the beginning of the long
days, and there remains no ur-
gent need of the club functions,
SO the last meeting of the club
will be held on the evening OF
March 1. This does not mean
hist there will be no more dra
matte features. Work on the
coming minstrel show is we'll
under way. Two or three com
Adies are also under consid+,a-
ion by the officers and iaeieS of
The post, and will be east in the
near future.

RON-C0NlS. Dance
BIGGEST OF SEASON

One Of the most brilliant and
successful hops ever given in
Fort Gibbon or vicinity was that
given by the non. commissioned
staff on Tuesday evening last.
No dance ever given here has
been more largely attsnded and
the gathering was select in char

No stranger in the post would
have had any difficulty in locat,
ing the Post hall, which was
brilliantly lighted without az we'll
as within. The interior arrange.
ment was revelation in the pos
sibilities of decorative art, and
called forth Explanations of de,
light and pleasure from all. The
entire hall was gaily yet daintily
festooned in flags, conspicuous
among which were the emblem>
and insignias of the various Or
CARNATIONS represented by the
members of the staff. In the cen
ter of the hall a platform had
been erected for the orchestra SO
that the music never sounded
better, nor did the mus icians ever
play better. The Peerless or
chestra was at it's best. ''''''-
Every possible provision Wa :
made for the comfort and pleas.
ure of the guests. The stage was
converted into comforta BILE
lounging and dressing room for
the ladies', while the men also
had a dressing and smoking
room fitted up for the occasion.

participated in the opening

At II o'clock the guests were

would tempt the most fastidious
taste.
From $50, the hour when the
guests commenced to arrive,
until 2:30, when they took their
departure, there was not a single
dull moment. Everyone present
pronounced the affair cne of the
most successful ever given in the

praises of the members of the
