here to London, England, may return

tween $4,000 and $4,000 year for
the three years They are confident
they will complete the fund by the mid

The benefit to be given at the Coun-

be largely attended by those receiving
invitations to the affair.
The ladies of the Thursday Evening
Bridge club have arranged for a
unique function, and with the decora.
lions, favors, music and otner details
that have been arranged for, the ball
bids fair to surpass anything recently
given at the Country club.
The proceeds from this Leap Year
Rose Ball will be given to very
worthy cause, the re-furntSlltng OF
Cook hospital sun room, and with the
nominal charge Of two dollars per
couple, which the ladies have decided
upon, everyone attending will feel not
only that they have supported good
cause, but will enjoy al evening OF
pleasure such us can not otten be had
for such reasonable amount.
The ladies' of the Bridge club are
going to a great deal OF pains in ar
ranging for the dance and the sue
cess OF the entertainment is already
assured.
The appointment will be entirely In
keeping with leap year functions, ana
the novel feature of Rose Ball with
cotillion figures frequently mixed
with the other numbers on the pro-
gram will prove that the ladies in
charge OF this dance have succeeded
in arranging for one OF the most de.
lightful entertainments imaginable.
There are other benefits of diff
ferent nature to be given for the same
cause and this is only one of the sub
sequent opportunities to which Fair
monitors will be asked and will gladly
contribute toward the helping of an
institution which Fairmont considers
among her most worthy acquisitions.
