refreshing punch bowl, as we'll as
for homemade boxed candies. The
frappe which remained at the close
Of the evening was sent to the boys
in camp at Ida Grove.
The dancing pavilion of Midway
Heights was beautifully decorated for
the occasion with asparagus fern and
summer flowers, while Japanese par.
asols and lanterns hung from the
ceiling.
The main attraction of the evening
was the home talent vaudeville per.

director. Solos were rendered by
Misses Dorothy Jones and Adele

blue and captivated the audience with
her fairy-like dancing. which was al.
most entirely original in step. A vo-
cal solo and encore rendered by Mrs.
Frank Lynch were received by those
present with much appreciation. The
closing feature of the program was
a farce which pictured the deep feel.
ing which the soldier experiences for
