ELK's CHRISTMAS TREE.
Ames Lodge Plays Santa Claus to the
Children. A Well Attended
i, Entertainment

On Christmas afternoon, about 900
children attended the Elk's Christmas
Tree at K. P. Hall, given by Ames
Lodge of Minneapolis. I. B. P. o. E.
of w. No. 100 This. novel and orig
inal feature was. suggested by Mr..
Archer Watkins, who was chairman
of the Committee of arrangements,
assisted by Grand Exalted Ruler, Geo.
w. Holbert, Sec'y VIM. R.. Morris,
and members of Ames. The Tree
was very large one and the hall was
appropriately decorated. The exer-
cises opened by Invocation by Rev.
T. J. Carter. Singing by the children
my Country, IT'S of Thee" A Sc
lected Solo was beautifully rendered
by Miss Alice Moore Readings from
Dunbar, by Mr.. Robt L. Robinson, of
Ames Lodge, proved a hit with the
young folks. The special feature was
a four round boxing exhibition. Serg't
Thomas P. Gleason of the Police Opt.
refereed the bout, which was between
two white boys. Mr.. Gleason told the
boys the value of the knowledge of
boxing and congratulated Ames
Lodge on their splendid effort. He
made an interesting talk on "Good
Fellowship" and said that "the hearty
cheer and laughing glee of child is
more pleasing than money stored in
bank" He introduced John and
Tom. De Muth, two brothers, who
gave the best demonstration of the
manly art ever put on by such
youngsters. They appeared in per-
feet physical trim and fought a
scientific battle from start to finish.
Every body present was enthused
over this entertainment Billy Blacks
Serenaders proved a jolly attraction
and Emmanuel Tyler's BLACK Baby
Boy" was enjoyed. divers Cabaret
Entertainers, a trio composed of
Misses Alice Moore and Edith Cor
don vocalists and L. B. Morgan
(Banty), pianist, in their latest hits
are deserving of every praise. The
exercises closed with the donations of
boxes of candy, fruit and toys to
nearly every person present. Every
one of the "kiddies" shook hands with
Mr.. Watkins and thanked him for the
enjoyable entertainment. Mr.. John
Sellars attended with the children
from Attacks Home, St. Paul. Next
year the Elks will try to reach the
destitute children in their homes.
Success to Ames Lodge. May other
fraternal organizations join or follow
them

THE SHRINER'S BALL.

The Annual Bali of Fezzan Temple.
Mobiles of the Mystic Shrine, was held
Monday Night at Coliseum Hall. The
attendance was not as large as usual.
Those present greatly enjoyed the
dance to the strains of McCulloughs
Orchestra. The grand march was led
by Hon. w. R. Morris under the
direction of Mr.. Alex Erwin. The
ladies were splendidly gowned, but
there was a noted absence of many
matrons, and especially wives of the
Mobiles. The young, people greatly
enjoyed the new dances and there
were many ladies wearing the latest
fashions in evening wear-in contrast
to the informal dress of the young
men. The Shriner's Ball was not up
to expectations. 1t has reverted to
the ordinary class, because many
Mobiles fail to attend, or bring their
wives and some attend in business
clothes. Dress suits should be worn
and the Shriner's should not depend
on their guests giving splendor to
their occasion. Let the Shriners give
a real Ball next year or give none.

stopped before it. In it's great plate

She stood for a moment looking.

thought II wonder If Abel knows.

Some one whom she did not know

"Kind o. nice" said the other.
Real nice" Mary returned and went
on with little glow.
AT Mis- Moran's house on the other
side of the square the children were
waiting for her-Bennet and Gussie
and Tab and Pep and little Emily
They ran before Mary in the road, all
save little Emily, who walked, clasp
ing Mary's hand.

Mary asked her.

At the station no one was yet about.
Utter peace was there. not the primeval
peace that is negation, but a silence
that listened.

flocks by night, all seated on the

along the horizon hill. The time need

watched, as many voices through many
centuries had made invocation on
Christmas eve. For a moment, looking
over the lonely white places where no
one-watched, as no one-save only Jen-
ny-watched in the town, Mary forgot
the children.
The showing and grating of baggage
truck wheels recalled her. Just beyond
the bay window she saw little Emily
lifted to the truck and the four others
follow and the ten heels bangle in air.
"Now" said Pep. And a chant
arose:
"'Twas the night before Christmas when
all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a
mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney
with care
In the hope that St. Nicholas soon would
be there" ~
Upborne by one, now by another,

went on unto the end. And it was as
