The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1916-02-19

Chief among social events eacn
year is the great military ball at the
university armory, and the affair to-
night promises to be no less brilliant
than its predecessors. Of late years
invitations have not bee issued as was
formerly the case, to state officials
and to friends of the university out
side of town. Lieut. Fooks has this
season re-established that admirable
custom, and a number of out-of-town
distinguished guests will be present
this evening.
In general popularity the annual
military ball ranks second only to the
Athletic ball, which follows the Pull
man game in October.
Senator and Mrs. Jerome Day, who
were to have assisted in receiving
guests, were detained longer in Chi
cago than they had planned, and will
probably not arrive in Moscow in time
for the festivities.
Governor Alexander will probably
be represented by members of his
staff.
There will be a number of dinner
parties preceding the dance and sew
eral large supper parties following it. |
