Cresco plain dealer. (Cresco, Howard County, Iowa) 1913-1945, 1916-05-19

A most delightful banquet and dance
was given last Monday evening at the
Cresco Opera House by the Eastern
Star and Masonic orders. In spite of
rain and disagreeable weather the
spirit of the large crowd that attended
and the untiring efforts of the commit
tee helped to make a great success of
the occasion. The irresistible har-
mony that found its way from the or.
chestra seemed to have the same effect
on every one, each one seemed deter
mined not to miss single dance. With
about two hundred in attendance and
the lavish floral decorations, the hall
presented itself as a picture of fairy
land myths.
