began, and It waa real delightful to ba
ushered to the various Noam which
bad bean decorated so nioely for the

oh arming young led las who ware then
In readiness to reoelvs them. Happy
conversations together with the sweat
sounds of the piano rendered by some
lamias’ deft touch were all that ooold
be beard. This order of the social pre
vailed for soma time whan all lbs
yoang ladles sod geoUemen ware

they were seated and It was aonounoed
by Mitt Widemao that tvary one

to bear sooh lively eoovereatlsns on

would have proved a difficult task to
any young ooapie. After this several
lovely songs wars sung by a class of
pretty yoang ladles, all sf which wsra
cate a la ted to make any one enjoy him

passed only too quickly when tbs bell
rang out 11 o'clock. It was with yaloo
