the land. Two hours were spent
with dinner, as all could not be
seated at the first table. Jokes and
merriment ran high during the din

of spirits. In the afternoon musi-
cal and literary entertainment was
carried out, which was greatly en-
joyed by the old people present.

Christmas Party
to Old Pe0pis

One of the incest holiday socials
that has been reported was Christ
mas party given to number of old
people by Miss Viola Freeland, at
her home in Thatcher, Christmas
Day. AS the old people gathered
in the forenoon, all we're given a
hearty welcome and made to feel at
home. At noon a good old.fashioned
dinner was served, consisting of
turkey, with cranberry sauce, sew
eral varieties of vegetables, pickles
and cheese, choice fruits, both in
and out of season, pastry, nuts and
raisins.
After dinner the old people sang:
"Old Lang Syne." They were then
entertained by choice readings from
Paul DunbarAs poems, by Gean
Thomas. Miss Clara Nash played
several pieces of dance music. A
Christmas story was read by Miss
Lane. This was a pathetic story of
an old couple, and brought tears to
the eyes of the listeners. After this
each person was given the end of a
string and instructed to follow it
and see what they would find. Each
found bag filed with nuts and
candy, also a pretty souvenir.
1t was a very happy day for the
old people and all went away
pleased and grateful. Those pres
ent were: Mrs. Christina Chlarson,
Mrs. Mary A. Hopes, Grandma
Fife, Mr.. and Mrs. Wakefield, Mr..
and Mrs. Echols and MIR. |. P. Rob-

l vas in the house for a week.
Much of that time ! spent in compos-

to Miss West, and in growing at the

the young woman who had been with
the murdered man in Pittsburg. But
she was still unconscious. An elderly
aunt had appeared, a gaunt person in
black, who sat around like a buzzard
on a fence, according to Mcknight,
and wept, in a mixed figure, into a
damp handkerchief.
On the last day of my Imprisonment
he stopped in to thrash out a case
that was coming up in court the next
day, and to play a game of double soil
taire with me.

Reno.

Interference or JeGries' seconds in help

mad This to say on the subject today:
Jenries was not counted out, although

down the second time II his seconds had

as n disqualification. although, as L have
said. Jeffries would have been counted
out had the disqualification not occurred -
Richards attention was called TO the
widespread agitation against the pictures
