DOUGHDOY'S DANCE IS MERRY AFFAIR, RAIN SCOFFED AT
Over 400 Gather At Country Club Despite Drizzling Sky, Falling Mercury

Despite a drizzling rain and a dTop in the temperature that made over coats and wraps become popular, a crowd of more than 400 people. jour neyed to the Warren District Country club last night to pay tribute to the men who made the world safe once again for democracy And it was fitting tribute.
 Society girl was clutcned in the arms of "gob" or doughboy and. as youth glided across theg floor to the strains of music with melody the old folks stood in the background with admiring eyes. To the lad and lassie belonged the dance and the music and to the old folks the happiness that can only come with mother and dads love and devotion for their boy
 Doughboy and "gob" turned out as if on dress parade. They were there by the hundreds and if anyone had a doubt in their minds about the fitness of the American fighter it was soon erased. A finer set of fighters could not be found in any armyZexcept the American army. The alertness and sparkle in their eyes, protruding chests and erect shoulders told the story in short words of the defeat of the Imperial German army at the hands of a foe that knew no fear-a fec that never retreated one step, but went forward from the time the first American gun parked on the plains oi Picardy.
 Shortly after 8 o'clock the crowd be gan to arrive. Cob md doughboy entered with his sweetheart on his arm. Here and there would come 2 stag and no sooner would he put away his wraps than he would be cap tured by some lassie who would waltz him across the ballroom floor to tho strains of melodious waltz or a synco pating jazz" tune.
 After several hundred of the guest: had arrived Alfred O. Kuhn, commun ity sing leader, took the floor and il moment everybody was singing Hail, Hail, the Gangs All Here" anC they were there. by the hundreds. | was like an old reunion of Civil wa veterans. Between the dances dough boy would ask doughboy what eHefi he belonged to and gob would ask gol what ship mate?"
 After the crowd had indulged 1T dancing for spell it was announced that refreshments were ready to b' served. There were cakes, 70 of then to be correct, sandwiches by the hun dreds, cigars coffee, cigarettes anC many other tasty edibles The affail was what the doughboy termed vel vet" He didn't have to pack his mes. kit and get hand ont and then wasl the dishes. And he liked that part O it, too. The women of the Warre1 District had baked delicious cakes They were four stories, some of them and some of them were six stories and they were toothsome There were angel food cakes, devil fooC cakes and every kind of cake one coul, ask for.
 The dance was planned by the Y w. c. A. and the r. M c. A., and tn, systematic manner in which it we. handled won the admiration of ever gob and doughboy present. Ther, wasn't even one little slip up durinI the evening. Everything worked ou perfectly The girls from the Y. w C. A. were on hand in their best cos tunes and the doIghboy minus sweetheart found himself right in tn, midst of a bunch of good looking girl! that wanted to make him feel a, though he was right at home
 Much credit for the success Of tn dance is due both the Y w C. A. an. the Y W. C. A. and the women of tn, Warren District, who made the re treatments possible by their libera and delicious contributions.
 The dance broke up shortly afte 11:3O and doughboy and gob ant sweetheart and mother left the bal room thoroughly happy. 1t wns { great night for the men in uniform.
