SpOoks.
 The Presbyterian church held a scene of spookiness last Friday night which many would have found hard to equal. Autumn leaves, corn shocks, shaded lights, mystery bags, stumps of trees, all lent themselves in one grand ensemble to help make fitting background for the mysterious figures that glided to and fro. At nine the unmasking began and friends hither- to unknown gretted each other for the first time during the evening. What fun followed! And then the eats! The tables stretched invitingly and were laden with Halloween favors as well as real old fashioned Halloween dain- ties.
 Everyone admits 1t was an unusual ly successful party for the Christian Endeavorers had worked long and hard to make t !. 2 !. success $ S
 Old Fashioned
 Sewing Bee.
 Nothing affords more genuine de- light than real old-fashioned sewing bee. Added to this prologue of ap- petizing dishes and the event is com plete.
 Last Friday at one, Mrs. Kate Wise hart was hostess at one to group of friends who enjoyed the daintily serv- ed lunch and the aftermath of sewing as well. But the afternoon was given over to stories of old times and friend ly chatter of other days which made the hours pass all too quickly for the following guests: Mrs. Took. Mrs. Nay, Mrs. Raudebaugh, Mrs. Scar borough, Mrs. Bunch, Mrs. J. F.. Jones, Mrs. Rierson, Mrs. J. c. Kelly and Mrs. Newlands.
 Returns at
 Masonic Hall.
 We'll, they got the returns all right! My, how the eagle screamed!
 Everybody was there, republicans and democrats, awaiting some good word for the party. We will say, may we not, that the republicans were in the lead when it came to ready smiles and genial countenances.
 But We started to tell of the dance. What a fine party it was to be sure. A splendid floor, spirited music and an eager crowd to lightly while away the hours. By one o'clock things were just about humming for a pleasant evening and until three-thirty the dancers continued their revelry. At twelve all stopped for refreshments and they certainly were refreshing. Good, hot coffee, delicious sandwiches and plenty of cake.
 Out of town guests were in evidence and the entire affair was a social suc- cess.
 The election returns were always a signal for demonstrations. MT. Neill read them aloud, from the various eastern states, while the different precincts came in slowly, but were re- ceived with loud acclaim and read, when posted, eagerly by everyone present.
 The Masons certainly left nothing undone in the way of delightful enter tainment.
 Camp Fire Girls.
 A splendid ceremonial meeting of the Campfire organization was an event of last Saturday afternoon at the Presbyterian church.
 While it was announced as a silver tea, still those who braved the storms of that indictment day found many de- lightful plans arranged and executed. Miss Reinhold in ceremonial garb, conducted the ceremony which is all ways an impressive one and the var ious crafts were displayed, which make the organization one of real to the members. Various articles of handcraft were displayed homecraft-all receiving their portion of praise. An account of their Lake Mormon camping trip was given in verse; an account of the various ways in which each of the twenty girls spent their summer, was also given in verse; Miss Velma Gum became a fullfedged member and re- ceived her Indian name and symbol. Miss Violet Raudebaugh became a firemaker and received the much cov- eted bracelet; while later dainty lunch was served those present The leader of the organization told how anxious the members were to do real service and of their plans to sew for home service work. To this end the funds of the afternoon were turned over-a channel well meriting the generous donation of about twenty five dollars all told. In the evening the girls wore their ceremonial cos tunes and sang an opening number at the Orpheum theatre just before the republicans introduced the various candidates and speakers. This organ ization will always be ready to lend a hand.
