NEICHBORS GET
INTO CITY COURT
antilles Are Given Ad-
vice By Hixhonor

Frank Gentara was before Hizhon.
or in the city court Tuesday morning
charged with breach Of the peace.
Mrs. Estelle Girardi told the court
that the defendant used vile language
to her and she was corroborated in
her testimony by her two children, a
boy and girl.
The families live neighbors to each
other and the children were out at
play and got into squabble. Mrs.
Giradi alleged that Gentara chased
the boy home and would have clicked"
him if she had not come to the res
cue. She said that Frank then called
her bad names.
The defendant said that the boy
threw stones in his house and the lad
admitted that he had thrown stones
at the house. He denied that he had
called the woman bad names.
Judge Geissler told both sides that
if they couldn't get along they had
better have nothing to do with each
other, and that if they came into
court again they would be punished.
The case was placed on file with the
understanding that If there is no more
trouble the matter is closed.

P. H. S. HALLOWEEN
MASQUERADE
Proceeds Go to Junior Class For Its
Prom.

Over two hundred people enjoyed
one of the brightest and merriest
dances ever given in Putnam High
school last Friday evening, when the
Junior class gave it's Halloween mas
querade.
The hall was very prettily decorat-
ed with jack-o'-lanterns, and yellow
and black streamers. During several
of the dances, all ofsthe lights were
turned down, except those in the Ian
terms, and a very pretty effect was
produced by the soft yellow bright
lights together with the mingling of
the many fantastic bright colored
costumes.
All who attended entered into the
spirit of the evening. Girls of "'76"
danced with Spanish pirates and sol
diers of 1917. All ages and condi-
tons of life, both previous and pres
ent, seemed to have returned for this
festive occasion and to have mingled
for the joy there is in music, laughter
and dance.
Pops orchestra opened festivities
promptly at o'clock and throughout
the evening until the dancing stopped
at two minutes after IL o'clock, kept
up a constant stream of dances and
encores crowded into three short
hours of full night Of dancing.
At 90 o'clock grand march Of
all in costume, took place, while the
Judges made their decision. About
fifty characters took part in the
march. The decision Of the most at
tractive costume, in the ladies, was
given to Miss Margaret Frasier. The
prize was a soft-leather pocket-book,
while Alfred Bonneville, as Pierrot,
received a scarf-pin as best among
the gentlemen.
After this, the dancing continued
uninterrupted, until IL o'clock. The
evening was one of the most success
full parties of the High school ealen-
dar and produced, for the Junior
class, approximately s38, which sum
will be applied to the expense OF their
Junior Prom.
