was given at the spacious and pleas
ant home of Mr.. and Mrs. F. G. Woll-
ner under the auspices of the Locust
Club. One of the pleasant features
of the evening was the music by the
high school orchestra under the dir
ection of Miss Hockersmith. The
young people play well and it is
gratifying. to know that the High
School now has this excellent addi-
ton to its musical department. Miss
Hockersmith also gave two comic
readings which were enjoyed. Miss
Lura Icely furnished an excellent
piano number. The boxes sold well
and /. T. Purcell as auctioner kept
the company in merry mood. The
proceeds amounted to about twenty
five dollars.
To the married man who cannot
get along without his drinks the fol-
lowing is suggested as a solution to
the bondage of his habit; First
Start a saloon in your own house.
Second-Be the only customer. You
will have no license to pay. Give
your wife So to buy a gallon of
whiskey, and remember there are SO
drinks in gallon. Third-Buy your
drink from no one but your wife, and
by the time the first gallon is gone
she will have IS to put in the bank
and two to start business again.
Fourth-Should you live ten years
and continue to buy booze from her,
and then die with snakes in your
boots, she will have money to bury
you decently, educate your children,
buy house and lot, marry a decent
man and quit thinking about you-
