Review Of the
Palm Program

There is not much use of 60
ing to the bother of writing a
review of the program of last
night, as most every body in
town was there to see the pict-
ures, therefore they know as
much about it as we do, but to
make sure, we will say that ii
was a dinger set of pictures all
tn e wa through. T h e
western picture, showing the
Rustlers after the herd of hors-
es, was an unusual sight, even
in a Motion Picture. The Bic
story, "The poor Sick Man" was
a hit, and everybody enjoyed
it to the fullest extent.
AS we said before, if there is
anybody in town that did not
see those pictures, Wa advise
them to come out tonight. of
better still, ask some one that
was here, before you come, then
you run no chance, and don't
have to have to take our word
for it.

Fireman's Ball De.
cided Success.
Largest Crowd in its History.

Each year we are called up
on to write-up the Fireman's
Ball, which is invaribly given
on February %, and each
time we use the expression" the
largest crowd ever" etc and ev-
en- while we are writing we
know there will be a larger
crowd the next year. Each
year the Fireman's Ball of this
city becomes more and more
popular and the only reason we
can't write 1000 couples" is the
lack floor space. At nine o.
clock, the grand march, led
by Ed d. Bradley and G. S. o.
borne and their partners was
announced and after q very sue
cessful grand march the first
number ended with quadrill,
Until twelve o'clock, evesy
other dance was a quadrille in
order to let some of the "der
ones emily themselves and get
home at a reasonable hour.
Many face that are never seen
at such functions, only on the
night of the Fireman's Ball
were there and that they en-
joyed themselves was evident
by the face that the'elder ones
were not the first ones to leave
The committee spared nothing
in decorations and had the Neu
finds Hall looking better than
it ever has before. Red and
green streamers were hung
from the large light in the cen
ter of the hall to the walls and
large paper bells hung about
the hall making the three col
ors red, green and white. Par
ticular pains had been taken de
corating the orchestra stage.
About 30 small lights were
strung around the opening of
the stage and the Fireman's
trumphet had a conspicuous
place in the center.
Whitmore orchestra of six
pieces were at their best and

lie plays a very important part.
