MISS MARGARET GRANT
 HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Miss Margaret Grant, who is attending the Anna Wrigh. Sem mary at Tacoma, arrived in Wran- gell on the Dolphin at o'clock Christmas morning to spend the holidays with her parents. Mir.
 and Mrs. ]. c. Grant. Miss Grants homecoming tor the holi-
 days was a reversal of previous
 plans. Mir. and Mrs. Grant had expected to spend the holidays with their daughter in Tacoma,
 but business prevented their leav- ing at the appointed time. A cable was then sent Miss Margaret call ing her home. This was kept a secret from the Grant children, and the presence of Miss Margaret on Christmas morning was the biggest and best surprise that could have been planned. Besides
 the pleasure of the surprise there was lovely Christmas tree at the
 hotel. and a jollihcation of the kind that strengthens the ties Of friendship and affection. It is probable that MT. and Mrs. Grant will accompany their daughter on
 her return to Tacoma.

Delightful Evening of Card Playing, Feasting and
 Dancing

4 holiday affair which was very largely attended and hugely enjoy ed was the social given by N7ran- gell Lodge No. 866. Loyal Order of Moose, in the Redmen's hall Friday night.
 The first amuserent of the even- ing was a game of progressive whist. The ladies first prize. a fancy cake plate, was awarded to Mrs. Marion Mckinney. Themen $ first prize. pearl handle knife, was awarded to Arnt Sorset. Thela- ladies consolation, prize a bachelor maids cat, was awarded to Miss Edith McMurry. Chas Benjamin received the mems hooby, a nigger doll.
 Following the whist game the floor was cleared for dancing, and the guests entered heartily into this form of amusement, dancing everything from a two. step to a quad,ille.,
 During the evening a bountiful repast was served. Appetites had been sharpened by the evening" s pleasures, and the good things were discussed with gusto.
 The local Paps are past masters in the art of entertaining, and to say that everyone had delightful time is putting it mildly.
 The Moose lodge is a compara- lively new organization, but it is growing by leaps and bounds all over the United States and Can ada, and Wrangell Lodge No. 066 is more than keeping up with the procession. New members are being initiated at almos, every meeting.
