 St. Patrick's Ball.
 The dance given by the Army and Navy club on St. Patrick's day was a pronounced success. Dancing began at 9:30 and continued until late hour. It was an invitation affair, and on the whole was quite exclusive. The dancers were made up principally of the younger set and happiness and ioyousness reigned. The young ladies in their vari-colored frocks and beau tiful evening gowns, and the soldiers and sailors in their uniforms, gave spectators the impression that out from under the shadows of war, the heart ache of loss through battle and the even more disastrous epidemic, youth has struggled triumphant and today it is, indeed, their springtime. Not even the misty quiet and thought fitness of the Lenten season can less en their exuberance of spirit, truly not 1 St. Patrick's day. Even the music tried to outrival itself. The floor was just what it should be, the decorations were appropriate, the programs at tractive, the punch just right, not too sweet nor yet too sour, but mixed to suit the taste of all.
 There were about one hundred cou- ples who enjoyed this notable function, and those who have not attended these dances given by our returned soldiers and sailors, are manifestly much interested for all are anxious to see the boys realize their hope of soon having a club room. In the mean time the dances given by them are nice affairs and much enjoyed, and reflect credit on the boys.
