Well, we have talked on ond on
and have not told you of the birth
; day dinner celebration lof V. a.
Bristol, which was given at his
/ home on JOS. Campau, last Satur-
day night. He babe about twenty
five gentlemen to come to his home
that evening, but gave no inkling
of the fact that it was his natal
day. One of the guests however,
happend to have some business
papers recording Mr.. Bristol's
date of birth, and man-like, he
couldn't keep the secret, so let it
out to the others. On arriving, the
guests were RECALLED in the living
| room with lots of smokes and
heaps of cocktails and enjoyed
cards and jokes. When they were
invited into the dining room, the
men sat down to a real stag feed"
for the table fairly groaned under
it's bountiful load Of turkey, corn
beef hash cheese, olives, pickles,
rolls, coffee. butter, salad, cakes,
ice cream, yes even the coup that
cheers" And the service-well, 1t
was perfect with the four special
walters, dressed in white jackets,
and white gloves, giving "jam-up"
service. After the dinner, II. S.
Dunbar acted as master of cere-
monies, and glowing testimonials
were given regarding the sterling
character of the honoree and the
splendid service he has rendered in
the community. Among the stag
gers, who helped Mr.. Bristol cut
his cake and eat his good dinner
