1t is the general opinion of all
those who were present at the dance
last Friday night that the young
men of ST. Joseph have never been
so successful in providing fun for
all. 1t was whispered around by
some of Madame Rumor's tatle
tales that these young men had de-
termined to show the young ladies
how to give dance. Apparently a
few heads have never gotten togeth-
err to accomplish better results for
there has not been a dance this sea-
son that has been more thoroughly
enjoyed.
Those dancing were:
Miss Lewis and White Turpin
Miss Hazlip and w. E. Scott
Miss Couvillon and, P. H. Wade
Miss Fleming and JAS. Rowan
Miss Bauer and viii Martien
Miss NJ. Rowan and r. Blanche

with such force against the door Al

severely fractured and her friend
felt very uneasy about her. Or

companied by DIR. Lilly and Mes
