The lecture and stereopticon
views in the skating rink last
Friday evening were entertain
ing and instructive. The at
tendance, however, was not
nearly so large as the affair de-
served.
The Live Wires" of the Cor
ona Club arranged for the base
ball game Tuesday noon between
the girls and the boys teams.
The "shock" came when the
girls won the game. The official
ly accepted yell still echoes
through the gulch: Corona,
Corona, crown with wings. it's
Room Is that does the things"
Another activity of the Corona
Club is the shorthand class,
numbering over twenty men,
bers, under the supervision of
M. f. Burghduff, the manager
of the club. Evening sessions
are held every week. The Corona
orchestra at present consists of
twelve musicians. and rehearsals
are held twice a week.
Additional mail service has
been installed in st. Johns. An
auto now comes from Portland
at about 7:30 every evening and
picks up the mail from the vari-
Gus mail boxes along the streets
and takes il to the general Office
at Portland. This is an innova-
tion that is quite pleasing to the
people of st. Johns. especially TO
the business men, as IL affords
better service and more of il.
The Benedict Social club gave
a delightful dance in the Eagle
hall last Friday evening. Mrs.
Day and Miss Long donated an
abundance of delightful punch,
which added considerable en-
joyment TO the occasion. Sneed's
orchestra furnished the music.

order. Everybody had a good
time. Another dance will be
given in the same hall Friday
evening of next week.

The illustrated lecture given
in the auditorium of the high
school building last Friday even
ing by the Portland Railway.
Light a. Power company was
attended by 300 or more. and
they were all pleased with the
entertainment afforded. The
progress made in street car de-
velopment since the past decade
was shown, together with facts
and figures relative TO the busl-
ness of conducting a street rail-
way system. The lecture was
highly instructive as well as en-
tertaining. and the audience had
better insight into the busi-
ness than ever before, and
could better realize the difficult
les that have to be met and over
come by trolley companies.
T. j. Monahan, +. p. Drinker
and Mrs. l.. N. Bellinger acted
in the capacity of judges at a

won by the affirmative 2 TO l.
The judges were presented with
nobby and attractive souvenirs
of the occasion in the shape OF
large folders containing the en-
rollment of the class, and a poem
by the class poet. They were
embellished handsomely with
illustrations pertinent to the sub
ject by Opal X. Weimer. the
class artist. The souvenirs
are highly priced by the re-
cipients for their originality and
uniqueness.
