representing the Lbs. by an emblem
of black and gold letters worn on the
left arm. After the show the girls
spent some time at the Handy Kitchen
and then started for their delightful
walk home in the moonlight. Reach
ing home at 9:45 the Rock game
started with plenty of lunch for all
which was exactly suited to the young
ladies' taste. The laughter from the
room disturbed Mr.. and Mrs. O..
Collins, but remembering they were
once young themselves they only
said, "Giris will be girls" The Rock
game ceased at about 1880 and the
seven girls conversation drifted to
various subjects thai are most dear to
them. Just as the dawn Of day was
creeping above the horizon the girls
fell into a beautiful, dreamy sleep. At
700 Sunday morning the Collins home
was again filed with the merry and
joyous laugh and talk of the girls.
AT 800 Sunday afternoon the Rock
Club departed for their homes, each
girl declaring it was n happy event
in their life never to be forgotten,
and also, they were happy in having
as joyous and entertaining a hostess.
