LARGE CROWD AT :.
LIBRARY BENEFIT
Yuletide Ball Given by WOman's
Club is Big Social Feature
of Holiday Season

The Yuletide ball given last evening
for the benefit of the library by the
Woman's club was everything that
could be expected of well-planned
social function, given at the height
of the playtime season of the year
and for worthy cause. The Knights
of Pythias hall, by q simple combina-
ton of evergreen boughs and poinset-
tias was given pleasing holiday at
tire, the floor was in excellent condi-
tion, the orchestra was at its best
and the large crowd seemed moved by
no motive other than to have good
time.
It was a delightfully."- informal af-
fair and delightfully."- democratic and
congenial crowd. Beauty danced with
Age and Maturity froliced with
Youth, while over in the corner those
who neither danced nor froliced
trumped their partners aces with 9
merry abandon that was as contagi.
| GUS as it was spontaneous.
Altho the accommodations of ths
hall were rather overtaxed the clut
ladies, by admirable management
handled the large crowd well ant
proved capable as well as charming
hostesses. The regular dancing pro
gram, which was proceeded by severa
extras to await the arrival Of out-of
town guests, opened with a CRANE
march led by Mayor l.. E. Johnso,
and Mrs. Grant A. Stewart, first VIC
president Of the Woman's club.

Myriads of hunters will endeavor
to ensnare the elusive and cumming
coyote in an undulating stretch of
country surrounded by sand dunes,
three miles north of Richland on Sun

The outline of the chase as planned
by the committee of Richland sports
men, covers the territory lying ap-
proximately seven miles north and

designated as the Orr ranch on the
east, the hunters will be stationed at
intervals in an unbroken line extend
ing westward to the Grosscup ranch.

Hanford, Prosser, Benton City and
Kiona will swing into the Grosscup
ranch, where captains will be in read

until junction is effected with the line
running westward from the Orr ranch
The drive is to start at 10 a. m.
and will come south in semi-circle
to a pothole just north of where the
head of the big lake used to be prior
to the advent of the drainage canal
Just before arrival there the line rid
ers will close up the east and wes'
wings of the semicircle, thereby com
pleting the circle.

LITTLE FOLKS DO MOTHER
GOOSE STUNTS AT SCHOOL
Pretty Operetta Given by Primary
Grade Children Under Direction
of Miss Shier

The Christmas entertainment given
last evening by the children of the
Washington building was very well
attended and was reported by those
present as being highly enjoyable.
The story of the search for and finding
of Mother Goose was attractive to
the children who entered into the spir-
it of the various characters with de-
lightfulness and ease. Santa Claus,
as suitor for the hand Of the fascinat-
ing Mother Goose, presented an en-
tirely novel feature. The little snow
birds enjoyed circumventing old Grim
Grum, who was horrid enough to
cause any child pleasureable shivers
The songs were tuneful and were rem
dered with good enunciation and tone
quality. The small boys orchestra
did manfully in spite Of high collars
and stiff shirts. As whole it may
be said of the production that it fully
maintained the excellent standard OF
the annual children's entertainment
presented by the pupils, all of the
parts being excellently taken.

YULETIDE Is
USHERED In BY
PUBLIC TREE
Snowy Ground and SwirIing
Flakes Make Perfect Setting
for Community Affair
ALL THE KIDDIES GET CANDY
Balance Left in the Fund as Nest Egg
for Next Year - Candy
For Orphans

SnrlSUnaSUlQe, WHICH as uSudl Was
this year appropriately observed in
the schools, churches and homes Of
the city, was auspiciously ushered in
last Saturday evening when the COM
munity Christmas tree was illumin-
ated in the square at Second and Yak
ina streets. The snow-covered ground
and the swirl of falling flakes formed
an ideal setting for the program CIV
en- at the foot Of the tree.
Altho the evenings snow storm gave
indeed, a Christmasy touch to the oc-
casion it resulted in a smaller crowd
than last year as many of the country
people did not venture out. But hum
dreds Of bright-faced, happy kiddies
were there to greet Santa Claus and
to receive from his hands well-filled
bags of candy. The program was
short, consisting of a few Yuletide
songs by the children, the singing Of
some of the old Christmas favorites
by the audience and an invocation by
Rev. X. S. Tontz. +
Not a little credit is due "Chuck"
Haas and his Eagle Patrol Of Boy
Scouts for the orderly manner in
which the distribution was conducted.
There was no crowding, no scrambling
and no boisterousness but the young
sters apparently recognized the au-
thority of the scouts who stood guard
around the tree and behaved accord
ingly. After every child present had
received bag Of candy, many bags
We're handed out to adults to be given
to children who were unable to be
present.
The committee in providing for the
tree, overestimated the needs of the
community and there remained from
their purchases about sixty bags
which were sent to make glad the
hearts Of the little tots in Spokane
orphanage..
Last year the financing Of the COM
munity tree fell exclusively upon the
Commercial club. Not only was the
financial burden distributed this year
but the tree was in larger sense a
community affair in that practically
every man and woman in the COM
munity was made contributor thru
the donations made by the CONNER
cial, social, fraternal and religious or
ganizations. The finances, like the
candy, was more than enough to meet
the needs and there is substantial
balance in the fund. The committee
as yet has not decided what DISPOSE
ton is to be made of this money. 1t
will either be turned over to the Wo-
mans club as a starter Of charity
fund with the understanding that. the
club make the community tree part
of their years work, or it will be de-
posted in one of the banks to the
credit of the community Christmas
tree and be kept as nest-egg for next
years fund.

The only items of expense connect

candy and trimmings. The tree was
donated by the Tum-A-Lum Lumber
Company and it was decorated and
