CARABAo DINNER CANCELLED,
Fete Won't BE Held Be-
cause Order still Is "Tn Bad"

Carabao. composed of veterans of the
Philippine Islands campaign, is in bad"
permanently with the administration,
have resulted in the cancellation of plans
for the societys annual banquet, an event
formerly of first rank in the city's winter
season.
The dinner was to have been held at
the New Willard, December 10. 1t was
decided several weeks ago to hold the
dinner and to leave out all allusion to
the administration, funmaking having
caused the trouble of last season. Re
Gently it had been reported that there
would be trouble If the dinner we're held,
and Dr. Joseph NJ. Heller, SECRETARY of
the order, announced that the dinner is

President Wilson, Secretary Bryan and
Secretary Daniels all were shocked last
year when the order. pursuing plans that
had been followed for years, burlesqued
the administration. The battleship
'.Pifie," which sailed into the room, was
declared by the President to be an af-
front to Mr.. Bryan. What hurt most
was the song of the society. Damn the
Insurrectos" which caused President
Wilson to resign from the society.

of playing another took his place and
the music and dancing continued un-
til one o'clock the next morning, when
it was announced that luncheon was
ready. After lunch more dancing was
suggested, but Aunt Lou MCGOWAN

and her advice was taken, the merry
makers departing about 80 after vot-
ing the party grand success and
wishing Mr.. and Mrs. Cross contin-
ued happiness in their new house.
