Delightful Straw Ride Given By Mr.
Walter Crater.
Winston-Salem, Sept. 18. —A
delightful straw-ride was given by
Mr. Walter Crater Saturday even
ing. A party of ten girls enjoyed
the ride. Seven o'clock found us
mounting our wagon, which was
drawn by four elegant horses.
Never was there a more delightful
evening spent, singiug, hollering,
eatiug confectionaries, which were
abundantly supplied. The party
were as follows : Misses Dora,
Miranda, Emma and Josie Crater,
Flora and Paulina Styers, Kate
Ryans, Bessie Morris, Flossie
Kallaui and Daisy Spainhower.
Mr. Crater placed himself in the
center of the wagon and siaid,
"Now girls, we will go anywhere
you all say." You may know he
was the center of attraction as he
was the only boy in the crowd ex
cept the driyer. The roads were
simply grand. We went cjriving
about five or six miles out in the
country. Misses Dora and Flora,
two old maids, espied something
in the road and yelled to the
driver to stop. They had found
a sweetheart, but as it happened
we had a sensible driver and he
wouldn't stop. We passed a house
where they wore killing chickens
for Sunday and Miranda, another
old maid, hollered to them to
save her the gizzard, as old maids
are always choice. As we drove
on we passed a persimmon tree
and we could scarcely hold Dora
il) the wagon, but we finally made
her understand that they were not
the kind of "Simmons" that she
liked so well.
Well, for fear of the waste bas
ket, I will close.
