OAK Grove
Masquerade Dinner Party

There was a continual luz of
excitement at Oak Grove all Sat
urday afternoon While preparation
went merrily on for the masquerade
dinner party. Everyone entered
whole heartedly and when the signal
came to march into the dining room
1T was indeed motley crowd that
assembled ranging from the ridicul-
GUS to the very attractive. An
adorable Lord t'auntleroy in real
black velvet, dainty grand danes,
oold pirates, sailors, jaunty beaux,
gypsies, a pair of lively negroes,
nurses, gay dappers, a bonneted in
FAINT with its maid, a resplendanJ
Queen Isabelle, a stately nun anu
stray travellers from all chimes
were gathered around the tables.
The customary formality and dig
nifty OF the dinner hour were
abandoned while cruel pirates der
scended upon fair victims and ali
of table etiquette were broken by
daring desperadoes. Throughout
the hour, however, the noble lords
and ladies' and those impersonating
the high-brow groups kept then
stately dignity TO make a greater
contrast. After dinner, the family
gathered in the assembly hall where
Mrs. Cooks band under the eXag-
gerated leadership of Miss Harper
gave novel entertainment that
drew forth great applause. The
chief performers were: Ruth LAVAL,
Beatrice Austin, Esther Rand, Vir-
ginia Wilcox, Marion Rich, Angie
Rouse, Norma Fuller and Helen
Wetherbee. Refreshments We're
served after the entertainment and
everyone declared it to be one OF the
merriest parties ever staged.
Miss Holmes art classes ran
over into Saturday and different
groups of girls were busy all day
under her direction making fascin-
ating handkerchiefs and scarfs of
crepe de chine for Christmas gifts.
Some of the more advanced pupils
have painted lovely things already.
Miss Holmes also did a crayon
portrait of Meredith Perkins that is
a clever sketch.
The class in eurythmicS was So
much enjoyed on Friday that there
was petition for a special one
on Saturday afternoon. Miss Cross
ley gladly consented and not
only students but some Of the
teachers as well went over to the
gym to practice the exercises.
The sermon which nr. Martin
preached on Sunday morning was
full of Christmas cheer that brought
inspiration to everyone. His text
was Luke 2:10. Dorothy Wheeler
sang THE Holy Child and all of
the hymns were Christmas ones.
The meeting of the Christian As
sociation on Sunday evening was
lead by Beverly Powell. who was
ably assisted by members of her
committee, each girl taking some
part Christmas carols again formed
part of the service and the Christ
mas spirit prevailed the whole ser
vice.

the battle between himself and
other heirs Of the late Levi q.
Letter over the $40, 000,0 estate
Of the pioneer merchant prince.
Attorney Henry Russell Platt, his
counsel, speaking for him, entered
denial before Superior Judge Denis
e. Sullivan that Letter had mis-
managed the estate, of which he is
the principal trustee, or diverted its
funds to his own pocket.
These and other charges were
voiced yesterday by attorneys for
Letters sister, the Countess OF SUI
folk and Berlxs. who Is suing to
have him removed as trustee along
with "tis man Friday, William j..
War;
Letter was accused OF Juggling
properties belonging to the estate
by selling. them to himself at low
prices, then selling them back to
the estate at a profit. It also was
charged that he paid himself an
exorbitant salary as president o.
concerns owned by the estate which
he operated at a loss.
Today, as yesterday, corridors
outside the courtroom were
thronged by those anxious for a
glimpse OF aristocratIc Lady Mar
guerite, the plaintiff, and the other
principals.
Few got into the courtroom itself,
for almost all it's seats were taken
up by attorneys. agents, guardians
and others representing the many
persons involved In the suit.

dignified, in her chair, ignoring her

pointment of Edward G. Mor- rissey to be United States Commissioner at Ketchikan. The third charge which was proven and for which these off, ficers had to take the blame was the open violation of law in the town of Ketchikan.
 There is still a lot of noise about what a clean town Ket- chikan is. The fact is how ever that there has been no change and the Hearst article only told a part of the truth. The marshal's office is no long CT party to those protecting the criminals for these officers are either blocked directly or by refusal to cooperate. The chief of police of Ketchikan and every one of his officers, also the mayor of the town, the leading defender of the name of Ketchikan, Ed. Mor- rissey, know what the facts are. Their hope today is that nothing will or can be done by the new marshals until after election because that will mean about 200 votes for Marquam and his bunch of "independ- ents." To this crowd who are appealing for the votes of the decent women of the Territory, it is utterly wrong for Indians to be organized and to protect themselve with their votes, but this crowd do not hesitate to organize the unfortunate wo- men and their hangers on and to get their votes all cast by one man. The people of Ket- chikan know who that one man is.
