chestra from New York city. They
also played for the dancing.
The feature attraction was a four
part picture entitled Her Wedding

fusion so at the Wedding Night at the

way distracted attention from the
curtain.
The refreshment tables were oc-
cupied throughout the evening and
reported a rushing business.
A gentle breeze sweeping off the
river added much to the comfort of
the patrons and with the beautiful col
OTed lights strung around the roofs
edge it made an ideal spot to spend
warm summers evening. Concluding
the performance dancing was held on
a newly constructed hard maple wood
floor located at the west side Of the
roof. The floor space is about $500
