tertainment of Kallipolis Grotto. No. Is,
NJ. o. V. P. EsR., held Wednesday night
at National Rifles Armory. will long oe
remembered by the several hundred
prophets, their wives and children who
attended. The entertainment was pecu-
liarly adapted to both children and
grown-ups. The "kiddies' were made
glad the minute they entered the hall
by having a box of candy handed them.
and the 'tmamas' were equally pleased
to receive a handsome bouquet of roses.
The prophets were presented with a
souvenir tumbIer bearing the Grotto en-
blem. The stage was beautifully decorat-
ed with Christmas trees and green foli-
age. Many beautifully colored electric
lights blazed a welcome and the decora-
tionS about the hall were representative
of the Grotto and the Christmas season.
