ployes of the Morris Iron Company re-
Gently, by Mr.. Elmer P. Morris, Vice
President and General Manager of the

the dancers. The new buildings which
have for some time been in course OF
construction have practically been com
pleted. Some time ago Mr.. Morris
planned to entertain all of the employees
at the foundry IN honor of the compile
ton Of the annex, and it was later de-
cided to tender them a dance on one of
the large floors just prior to the lnstalla
ton of the new machinery.
Dancing began at 80 o'clock and
continued until nearly midnight. Dur
ing that time many couples were pres

tied there while the dancing was in
progress. Excellent music was rendered
by Fishers Orchestra during the even
ing. Ice cream was served in abund-
ance during the entertainment.
