About thirty-five couples of Be-
midji young people enjoyed a leap
year dance given by the young ladies
at the city hall last evening. The
leap year idea was carried out in the
decorations as we'll as in the conduct
of the party. The bare walls of the
hall were relieved by college and
school pennants, posters, and flying
cupids, and Masten's orchestra was
hidden behind a bank of palms. The
cozy corners and these proved to be
popular during the evening. Notice.
able features of the party were the
signs posted in conspicuous places
fact that no lady would be seated as
long as gentleman remained stand
ing and those asking that no ladies
sit out dances unless all the gentle
men were dancing. Those present
