The Washington Birthday social given by the ladies club on Monday night was a rousing success both fIom the standpoint of good time and the money receipts. There were over 100 people present ana though there was no auctioneering or boxes the excitement over obtaining them ran high. The program was short but interesting, one feature be- ing the enthusiastic singing of patri- ctic sons by the entire crowd. The slides on Burns and Scottish scenery loaned by Mir. Walter Hill of Phoe- nix were very fine specimens and thoroughly enjoyed by the audience. Among them was one Of George Washington and of our flag which aroused great applause. Mrs. Ryder deserves much credit for the success of the evening.
