Wickenburg Ne.Ds
St. Patrick's Ball a Success

Genuinely enjoyable was the infor- mal hop given Thursday evening by the Wickenburg fire department. This is an annual event and is much looked Promptly at 9 o'clock, the grand march started, led by Mrs. Grant and MT. Everts with fully 30 couples following. The exquisite music was furnished by the Wickenburg orchestra and during the entire evening punch was served to the guests. An unusual amount of in terest was shown when the prize waltz was announced and almost every one participated in this event. There are SO many splendid dancers that it is in- deed difficult to single out any one couple. The decision of the judges finally lay between the last two cou- pies on the floor, and, being unable to judge between these two couples, the prize, an immense cake, was awarded to both, the lucky winners being Mrs. William Reedy and Paul Hannon, and Mir. and Mrs. John Bryan The judges we're Mrs. Lane, Mrs. Shellington, MT. Reedy and MT. Volk. After congratula- tions the cake was cut by the two ladies and passed among the crowd. The dance lasted until a late hour and the guests went home declaring this to be one of the most successful and en- joyable occasions of the season and the firemen who gave this ball should be pASdSCu aL llt SdllSldCIlOn anu SllJOy- ment displayed by such a large attend ance.
