that we have lost track Of how to do
it. However, ! believe that the boys
ought to pay their girls ticket to a
party or a ball if they want her
company. and that even then they
have no right to monopolize the
girls company. To be sure. girl
should give her escort the first and
last dances and probably the greater
portion of her numbers if he wishes,
but she need not dance with him
alone, not even if he is her husband.
We hope the boys will take hint
and not do so funny any more.

Mrs. Charles A. Ray of $3.50 S.
Junette St., left on the Milwaukee
Monday night for Chicago, where
her mother is very i'll.
The Christian Mutual Aid and
Burial Society, a prospective cor
poration for the aid and assistance
of the aged and infirm, the sick and
the orphan among US, was authorized
by the board of the Bethlehem Bap-
tist Church last week, the pastor to
take the initiative in establishing
this great work. Mr.. f. NJ. Hollo-
well, Mrs. L. CASTOR and Mrs. Char
lotte Brown are leaders in the move
ment with DR.. E. Elmore.
Pastor Stovall and his charming
little wife put forth splendid enter
tainment free of charge last Thurs
day night with 80 young children on
the stage. Wee tots just big enough
to stand up did their parts well and
those who fell down on the job gave
as much fun as those who succeeded.
Mrs. Stovall has quite a bit of pa
thence and as mistress of ceremonies
exhibited marvellous tact.
The churches observed Palm Sun
day with special services. This old
custom of the Catholic church is be-
ing revived among the leading nom
Catholic denominations. Within the
lifetime of this nation in some
states it has been a serious offense
to observe Easter, Christmas and
such days as religious holidays. but
time has tempered the hostility of
both Catholic and Protestant and a
more kindly feeling seems to be
growing up with the years. Jew,
Catholic and mont Catholic all have a
common basis in their belief in the
one God, beginning with the doctrine
of the Holy Trinity, they vary in
many ways.
All the Tacoma papers seem to
be enthused over the apparent good
prospects for a much better year in
Tacoma for 1928 than in 1929. 1t is
to be hoped that we won't be disap-
pointed. We are very lean from our
long fast from prosperity.
A certain young man at the meet
ing at Bethlehem Baptist Church on
Thursday whose name we failed to
| obtain showed quite bit of original
ity in selecting the subject of his
short but admirable paper. The sub
iect was Automobile Mechanics"
That so young boy should choose
such a practical topic for public
discussion among our people is a
wonderful thing. Most of us go to
a gathering to laugh and hear good
singing and to be entertained gen
orally. Ii comes, therefore, as a dis
tinct surprise to hear such a prac-
teal paper. That boy will get some
where. Robert Jones, we believe, is
his name.
Friday and Saturday nights, April
6 and Z, Tacoma Elks of the World
will hold an educational congress at
! their hall Quite an interesting time
is expected and all the young folks
will be out.

Fischer of Holy Rosary Parish and
Homer T. Bone. personal friend Of
Mr.. Ryan. Pickens made a good
speech, although he, told us nothing
that is new. He is always interesting
A new Tacoma branch started off
with young Fred Chew as president
Sergt. NJ. NJ. Smith, secretary; Mr.
Z. Z. Elmore, treasurer. 1t is well
The older members of the former
branch would not get along with
each other and the branch to func-
ton must be guided by younger and
more tractable persons.

Mrs. Sergt. ]. Buck, Gustave B. Al.
