THREE HUNDRED ATTEND
RECEPTION AT Y. NJ, C.. A.

A very pleasant reception was
pulled off, last night at the Y NJ
c. A. This was given by the boys
department to the students of the
high school and faculty. About three
hundred gathered in the large lobby
which was decorated with the high
school cClors. Mr.. Licata and his four
children entertained with mandolin
and violin music. This was very nov
el, for the children played without
notes entirely, and also with their in
struments held at the back of their
neck and in front of them like a cello.
There was also a good mix-up game
which caused a good deal of fun. In
the swimming pool there was an ex-
hibition of swimming and water games.
This is ever popular, even to the boys
who have an opportunity to watch
any time they wish, but especially SO
10 the young women who are not able
TO see the swimming except at special
events. The gymnasium was open
also during the early part of the ev-
eniag.
Refreshments closed an evening full
of good fun and sociability. The re-
csptlon to the high school is an an
nual event in the social life of the
boys department.

Many Cures Reported Daily In Towns
Where Il 10 Known.

\ The wonderful cures rnat are being
made by this remarkable new remedy
are almost beyond belief. A young
lady from Ottumwa. Iowa, for many
years suffered from bad case OF
eczema. Her face was a sight to be-
hold; all covered with red blotches,
pustules and pimples. So unsightly was
her appearance she gave up all social
life. Failing to find relief with doctors
and remedies, she became respondent
and discouraged. After a few weeks
treatment with Amolox the scaly red
ness disappeared, pustules healed and
she was entirely cured. A few months
following her mother wrote that Amo-
iox had done wonders for her daughter,
and she was married last week Seems
like fairy tale, doesn't it? Yet this
10 the truth. This is only one of the
many cases that are being reported in
towns where Amolox has been intro
duced and its merits have become
known, Amolox Is invaluable for &C.
