NEWS NOTES FROM JARBIOGE


Club, Thursday evening, May 29,
was one of the most enjoyable SOC
ial affairs that has taken place here
for some time Everyone present
seemed to feel it incumbent upon
himself to show the other fellow
good time. The spirit of hospi-
tality was in the air and with open
arms the strangers who have come
to make their home in this camp
were welcomed. Much credit is
due the Commercial club for max
ing it possible to enjoy these diver
slons. The music by Messrs Harris
and Duncan was all that could be
desired. The slow dreamy waltzes
made one sentimental and the
bright rnllicking two.steps made
one forget his troubles. The quad
rifles were the feature of the ev-
ening. Convention was cast aside
and everyone entered into the
dances with a swing that was ir-
resistable.
Mention should be made of the
ladies gowns but the "mere man"
who was delegated to furnish the
required information insists that
he "W i'll have to pass"-or words
to that effect. The date of the
next dance has not yet been an
nounced, but it is being looked for
ward to with expectancy and a
good crowd is assured.
