nnd Enginemen quit the strenuous
vocation of their calling last Monday
night and dabbled with society. How
' well they succeeded In their annual
dlj) Into things social is best attested
by the universal praise coming from
those who attended, and these were
many. Unique In decoration and well
attended, there was nothing but suc
cess to mark every turn of the affair.
Bound to devise somthlng new the
firemen got away from the usual mode
of decoration. In Its stead they swung
railroad lanterns from the ceiling and
mirrors decorated the wall space. Sig
nal flags used by trainmen were also
used with good effect In lending tone
and fashion to the , general soheme.

dancing was held, was msslng us

trees nnd branches, well lighted and

to warrant the statement that the fl re
ason's ball Is a big event. The floor

In arranging dances. Hoys got but
