Mrs. Sam DAILY gave a children's
Halloween party at her home Tues
day evening of last week from I to 8
| o'clock and all the neighborhood
kiddes We're invited and had real
honest-to-g goodness good time party.
Halloween games were played and
apples, doughnuts and cider formed
the refreshments, to which the
youngsters did ample justice. and it
was with reluctance they departed at
the allotted time. thinking that their
| good time had been altogether too
short.
A party of five in Ford sedan
driven by H. A. Franklin was the vic
tim of what might have proven a ia
tai accident the night of Halloween.
A telephone pole had been placed
across the road near the school house
and as Mr.. Franklin approached he
did not notice it until too late to avoid
going over it. As a result, those in
the back seat were badly shaken up
and Miss Alma Scott of Wenatchce
| was jostled against the top of the car
with such force that her head was
badly injured and her nose broke,
I he other two ladies in the rear seat
with her were also shaken up consid-
erably but less seriously hurt. Mr.
and Mrs. Franklin in the front seat
were uninjured. The car was badly
damaged. 1t is presumed that the
pole was placed across the road by
some youngsters as Halloween
prank. That they did not realize the
| serious consequences that might re-
suit. is the most charitable way to
view the matter, but steps should be
taken to prevent any such stunts IN
the future, and if the perpetrators
are known, they should be made IN
realize the seriousness of their act.
As is usual with these events. the
annual masquerade ball given by the
G. |. A. last Saturday evening IT
Firemen's Hall, was attended by j
| large crowd and the dancers enjoyed
every minute of the affair. The cos
tunes were numerous and the variety
almost unlimited, many being not
only unique but original as well, and
the judges experienced considerably
difficulty in selecting prize winner
The following were finally decided
upon: Miss Madeline Hart, ladies
first; J. S. Brender, gents first; Mrs
Frank Cassidy. ladies' comic; John
Wunder. gents comic Other cos
tunes came in for admiration anC
praise. and the floor when all were
dancing was a riot of gayety and
| color. Refreshment in the form OF
