WOODMEN BANQUET

The yearly social function of
Camp No. %, Woodmen of the
World, was a pleasant gathering of
members and their families at
Woodmen Temple Thursday night.
While the attendance was lighter
than last year, good cheer was in
abundance and if any failed to
have a good time the cause could
not be attributed to the Woodmen,
whose position as hosts is secure.
The banquet was prepared by
the Royal Neighbors, the menu
consisting of nicely roasted turkey
with all the 'fixins.' The table
decorations were pink and white
carnations.
While the banquet hall was be-
ing cleared for dancing, a short
program was rendered in the lodge
room in which the clever imperson-
ations by the reader, Miss Curtis,
deserve special mention.
The dance was enjoyed by a very
large number, the floor being filled
to capacity-and more.
