Ab the knights and their Lajdyea moved around thev Arena, Mrs. Stone, Mrs. Berry and Mrs. Donald Peattie were to act aa judges of the costumes of the knights. So difficult did they find the task that they asked permission to divide the points, awarding to Purdue Richardson and Carol Adams equal honor for the beauty and appropriateness of their costumes. Before the ^obtest of the knights began the audience enjoyed the beautiful spectacle of the Maypole Dance by fourteen children under the direction of Mrs. Herbert. un lor ine ganani anignt or the lance, And the merrie days of the Maypole Dapce!

There times each knight circled around the arena at dashing speed, spearing with his lance the ring that dangled from a half dozen points. The number of'rings secured on the lance, theftime consumed in making the required circuits and the beauty of coatuml were points to determine the victor, the one who y&s to choose the Queen. Hani and furious they rode amidst the plaudits of the audience and the cheers of their Ladye love, and at the close Sir Knight Purdy Richardson had scored a total of 47 points and Was declared the winner. Now came the selection of his Queen, and from among all the beauty, charm and grace of the royal ladies he chose Miss Grace Miles, Queen of Loveliness. His choice was greeted by the spectators with loud applause. But there still remained the most thrilling scene of the day, called the Ride of Jerusalem Seven chairs were placed in the center of the arena and six knights and the two fair Pages were to ride at full speed around the arena, and at the sound of the trumpet they were to charge on their steeds to the center, unhorse and seat themselves in the chairs. As there were only seven chairs and eight riders, one would be left out each time as one chair was removed at each round. The laughter and cheering from the spectators added to the excitement and the coveted chairs were eagerly seized by the daring riders. This contest was tinajly won by Purdy Richardson. Thus closed the most unique entertainment of 'the season and one that will be long remembered, not only for its chivalry and knighthood, but for the charm of a wholesome out-door entertainment that every one thort oughjy enjoyed, and which Tryon[ alone could furnish.
