w are doomed to have our interviews
still while longer on paper
though pen and ink cannot possibly con-
vey to you all would like to say and
half of what most interests you from
home.
The weather is ideal and our streets
are crowded with home folks and visitors.

those we have known elsewhere and the
comments on our market are very en-

with hundreds of beautiful favors being
distributed. The last part of the evening

had fine time heard that Mrs. Fearn
went to no little trouble to arrange the
most wonderful figures and that the af-
fair was a most glowing success.
