ENJOYABLE EVENT WAS
ENTERTAINMENT LAST NIGHT

1t was fine, enjoyable entertain
ment given by the Winter Visitors
Club last evening" grand success In
every particular, standing room only
was observed. Before opening the
formal exercises an invitation was
given to Mrs. Humphrey of Chatta-
nooga, Tenn, to play selection or
two on the piano, which she kindly
consented to do. Her name should
have appeared on the evenings pro-
gram and the committee hereby asks
pardon for this regretted oversight.
Mrs. Humphrey surely is at home
with the worries.
Vice. President Mr.. Lake in a very
CHEEKY mood proceeded to carry GU.
the program as made up. In the
course Of his opening remarks he
seemed to have some reason fer put
ting one over President Longneeker,
but finally out OF the forgiving spirit
of his large heart relented and called
for standing vote of thanks TO the
president for his untiring aggressive
work in behalf of the Club and to all
who would come in and enjoy living.
The vote was unanimous, all spring
ing to the feet as one person. Presi-
dent Longnecker responded In his
genial manner.
Mr.. Fl. T. Huston OF Richmond.

little talk to the Club. His fine sub
;ect was along the line of recreation,
which he handled in way unusual.

marks, concluding with the Idea that

All Paving Contracts
Annulled And New
Bids Will Be Asked

Last night at special meeting OF
the City Commissioners to consider
the paving matter, 1t was decided TO
reject all bids and readvertise the
city paving work, taking fresh start
in the entire matter.
This action was thought best by
the majority Of the Commissioners
considering all the circumstances
The matter had gotten into consider
able of muddle, and it was rather a
puzzle Just how to clear up the situa
ton, and the idea Of beginning over
again with clear and intelligent un,
derstanding as to specifications and
other points involved seemed the best
solution.
The contract had first been let to
the Alabama Paving Company, and
this contract was annulled and the
work given to the Mcdonald Con
struction Co., On the ground that the
Alabama Paving Co. had failed tc
make satisfactory bond in the time
specified. The paving company
claims the time had not elapsed, and
this complicated things, as did the
fact that there we're some changes
in the specifications that gave room
for controversy. 1t is hoped that 9
new beginning and re-letting will put
everything straight.

building shall be in charge of board
