Ladle‘a‘ Night given by Sherman Coun-

nature of a card party. there being
ten tables at whist. The games were
interesting and in some. instances ex-

by Mrs.‘ Arthur C. Hoyt and the con-
solatloa by Mrs. Ralph E. Dertt.

quost of the City of Norwalii for the

‘Mr. Pnnderford said that Norwalk

The main objections to the groove

seem to be: That the public may use
it. more ssfel and therefore to a
greater extent; that the rails cost
more} and that the rails 'cost more to
