MUSIC CAPTIVATES SUCCESSFUL DANCE
 BY SHRINE MOBILES

The one feature, far above all oth- CTS, of the delightful dance under the auspices of the No6les of the Mystic Shrine last night at Elks Hail that received most favorable com mendation was the excellent dance music furnished by Messrs Larson, Kimball Erickson and Miss Ethel Forbes, four members of the Larson and Kimball orchestra of Juneau Fine" excellent" "great." the best yet" were amongst the many voun- tary and hearty eXclamations of praise and approval heard from many of the dances throughout the hall during the evening. Double ercores followed every number after the first fox trot This favorable criticism of the music was given, unsolicited, by those competent to judge musicians and regular dance patrons. The or chestra played five absolutely new pieces among it's repertoire; one of the fox tlots having been received through the mails yesterday morning and two of the waltzes were played in the city for the first time The orchestra was composed of violin piano, trombone and drums.
 Approximately three hundred per. sons assembled in the hall during the evening and the dance floor was at all times taxed to it's capacity. The shrine decorations proved interesting and attractive. The punch prepared by MT. F. ]. Dyer, of the Luncheon cite, was most highly complimented: :: it contained ingredients that gave if a most delightful and palatible taste and was thoroughly enjoyed-every drop of the fourteen gallons The large assemblage was joyous and happy and the genuine spirit of Shrinedom prevailed. Not for many enjoyable informal social function held in the city.
 The Southeastern Alaska Shrine Club will give another dance and entertainment on the Third Tuesday of August at Elks Hall New fea. lures will be introduced and recently acquired emblems and Shrine decOra- tions will be displayed. Large dele gations from Thane and Douglas were present and a number of tour. ists making the round trip on the steamer Alice attended the dance Those to whom special credit is due for the success of the event are: Lou l.. Harding, president of the Shrine Club; John Bendel. secretary and the executive committee composed of Lloyd V Winter, Charles F. Naghel, John T Reed Lester D. Henderson and William E. Britt

SPORTING
HINT TO BRATTLEBCRo.
High School Football Proposition Out
lined in Rutland Herald.


The Rutland high school football
team plans to play Montpelier high IN
Rutland next Tuesday and Winooskl
high the following Saturday also in
Rutland, which leads the Rutland Her
aid to remark.
Should the Rutland boys come
through VIGOROUSLY in both of these
games, they viii undoubtedly have 4
claim to the Sc holastic honors of the
state that will not be disputed by any
other Vermont school with the possi-
BILE exception of the Brattleboro high
school. The Rutland management
would like to play the school team
from the organ town at Rutland on
Thanksgiving day, and are prepared TO
give them one of the largest guaran-
tees ever offered Vermont school
athletic team.
cit is believed that if the manager
of the Brattleboro eleven will commune
cate with II. l. o 'Brien, director of ath-
letics at the local high school, inform
ing him that the Brattleboro team will
come to Rutland Thanksgiving day,
this year, providing that Rutland will
go TO Brattleboro on Thanksgiving day
in 1920, the proposition win be accept
ed.
''This is hint to Brattleboro. The
only chance of Rutland and Brattle-
boro playing this year, is for the B
IT, s. and the r. II. s. authorities to
get together and agree to the above
proposition Immediately. If this is not
Gone, Rutland is going to play some
other team here on Thanksgiving dav
One thing is certain and the organ towr
management should be aware of it, that
the Brattleboro high school football
victories over school eevens do not
compare favorably with Rutland's win,
all of which have been over Vermont
schools
