The liloudylre SocialClub, which has
grounds and a club house in Granite

members and friends. There were
about fifty couples present. and it was
an swelling of rare enjoyment. Shep-

and the merry dancers tripped the

morning.
Tin-so seciabies are quite popular
with the club during the winter. They
tend to get the young people in the
neighborhood. which is a little settle-
ment by itself, acquainted. and to
know each other better. All the young
ladies in the vicinity congregate tlierc.
while the young men come from differ—
ent parts of the state.
Last night was an ideal one for
dancing. The bright moonlight shin-
ing through the trees of the club
grounds, presented a pretty and cheer-

noinbreak up until the wee sma’ hours
of this morning. Mr. and Mrs. Ferris
know how to entertain. and last. night ,
they were above the usual standard in i
this respect.
During discourse of the evening a ‘
most liberal collection was. taken for
the'benent of the hospital. The sum
which was realized was very gratify-
ing to the members, and they appre- ‘
ciatc the iiberaiity very much.
There were no prizes awarded for
the winners. but this did not make the
game any the less interesting. When
it had finished. Edward K. Selleck and
.iohn Henry Knapp stood the.«bighest
fur gentlemen. and Miss Augusta uib.
bio and Mrs, Christian Swarta for the
ladies. A most bountiful collation was
served.
After partaking of the most excellent
repeat. the‘ president of the club. Mrs.
John Henry Knapp, called up Mr. r‘er—
rls to relate some of his experiences
while travelling in the South. Mr. o‘er.
ris responded and said as it was a la-
dies‘ whist club and that the gentlemen
had only been invited to hear and not
be heard. he thought that the prest-
dent. who had just returned from the
city of the birth of our independence.
might be able to tell us some very in~
terestiug stories of what she saw while
in Philadelphia. .
Mrs. Knapp. in her well-known pleas-
ing planner, gave a descriptive account
of the many interesting scenes in the
Pennsylvania city; _ She then called up-
on Miss Mary A. cunningham. who ac-
companied Mr. and Mrs. Ferris on their
southern trip. Miss Cunningham re-
plied in a modest way and told her ex-
perlcuces while in the South very in.
.tcrestingly. Her remarks were receiv.
ed with hearty applause.
Mr. Ferris was then prevailed upon
to tell of his travels. He graphically
related his experience in Havana. and
dwolt at considerable length on the
education of the country. the people's
mode of living, the churches and
schools and when and how they were
built. He branched out from that one
of thought and told about the rapid
strides that country is making of we
sent.
Miss Cunningham desired that Mr.
Ferris tell his fish story. it was so
extremely fishy that it was the means
of breaking up the evening‘s festivities
in a rousing cheer. All departed \0
their respective homes. feeling that
they had never spent a more pleasant
