Society "went some" this week if it is appropriate to inculcate slang in to a decorus society column. Hallow e'en prompted many delightful affair's and prompted .added frills to the club life of the city. From early in the week until tonight it has been a hum ming pace that society set. Several functions were elaborately staged, but through them all the hallowe'en color prevailed. Wednesday evening one of the important events of the week transpired when a group of about 15 couples were assembled in a delightful dancing party at Honan hall. . At the Wednesday evening: party, curio costumes were in vogue. All the ladies were gowned in Hallowe'en at tire, meaning thereby witchy, spooky and ghosty gowns, prepared especially for the occasion. Those who partici pated in the delightful party were: Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Carr. Mr. and Mrs. Jay Van Buren, Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Scrotf- gin, Mr. and Mrs- August J. Stange. iur. ana lurs. u. u. garrison, ;ur. ana Mrs. M. K. Hall, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Dennis, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Newhn, Mr. and Mrs. A. V. Andrews, Mr. and Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Bridges, Mr. and Mrs. C. C. McCormiek, Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Ravenscroft, Mr. and Mrs. Gra ham, F. L. Lilly and A. A. Wenzel. On Friday afternoon Mrs. J. F. O'- Connel entertained a large circle of friends from 2:30 until 5:30 at Honan hall. Fully a hundred ladies were present to do honor to the kind host ess. Seldom has La Grande seen the spectacle of so many beautiful gown ed women assembled together in La Grande, as on this occasion. It seemed the turning out day for the most ex quisite dresses. It was La Grande's Fifth avenue day. It would require an expert to describe the beautiful tulles, creoe de chine, the tucks and pleats and what not that go together in this day of refined taste, to make an ex quisite gown. The decorations were tlowers ana ferns and the score cards and pencils were in the hallowe'en colors. After cards Mrs. T. J. Scroggin entertained the ladies with two vocal selections. and it is said friends never heard her sing more beautifully. Mrs. Bridges ablv iiceomnamed her on tae piano. The Misses Gaskill contributed to the music by giving both a vocal ana an instrumental selection. . When the music was over refresh ments, in two courses, were served. The table decorations were in Hallow e'en colors and the entire service voic ed the same sentiment. Seven little girls, daintily dressed, acted as serv ants. The Mesdames Bader and Sommer. of Elgin, and Mrs. Andors, of Port land were the out of town guests. It was easily one of the prettiest and most delightful affairs of the season and all of the assembled ( guests en joyed it royally. Mrs. Robinson won first prize, sec ond went to Mrs. Fred Kiddle, third to Mrs. R. I). Jones and the consolation prize to Mrs. W. D. McMillan. A delicious two course luncheon was served. Members of the evening division of the Kaffee KIntch were most royally entertained last evening by Mr. and Mrs. Fred L. Meyers and Miss Marga ret Newlin, at the Meyers residence, corner Spring and Ftrsi. Hallowe'en was, like elsewhere last night, the key note of decoration and a beautiful par ty was 'had. - Mr. and Mrs. Meyers and Miss Newlin added specially invited guests to "those present" from the Kaffee Klatch ranks, and made an torn 12 tables at cards. Mrs. J. J. Carr won the ladies' favors and DeLile Green, a ruest for the evening, won the men's' honors. The .spacious home was beautifully decorated along Hal lowe'en lines of beautification, and re freshments were in keeping with the spirit of the evening. It was one of the public are eordiallv invited. C. J. Black, Bishop. Telephone Main 754.. FIRST M. E. CHURCH.

Services held in the Germnn Luth- crnn church north of high school build ing. ! the mott delightful Kaffee Klateh functions of the year thus far. Last evening the Epworth League of the M. E. church, was host to about 200 guests in the basement of the new church on Fourth and Spring streets. Streamers of black and yel low were suspended from the corners of the room and swayed in rippling lines to the center. Jack o'lanterns peeped from every conceivable place and the walls and windows were hung with witches and black cats Witches on the historical broomsticks were suspended' from the ceilings and arch ways. The evening was spent in play ing games, the real old fashioned games. At a late hour the lights were turned low and Reverend Fyke dis tinguished himself by telling a shiv ery ghost story. The bands and jaw bones and other parts cf the body were v JT ;shrieked with horror at the clever ruse. Next a large pumpkin was carried onto the floor on which was pinned the name of every lady in the room. The voung men then drew the name of the lady thev were to take to luncheon. After all had secured their partners the grand march, which was lead by Mr. Dixon and Miss Massee, started, The long line of couples twined in and . 1 n n, f tk. t,t,ii finally found seats in the many cozy corners. The your.g ladies of the Ep wovth League theV. served pumpkin pie and coffee. At 11 o'clock the guests departed for their homes and all pronounced the young people's house warming of the new church a prr.nd success. ' The first dancing parts given by private clubs at the new Rex was in dulged in on Thursday evening, by about (iO couples why were the guests of Norman Deselit, CO. Ramsey, Wal ter Francis, Harve Bay and Charles Williamson. The spaciousi hall, new to many of t'.ie couples, was the scene of much merriment throughout the ev ening and the dancers swayed to the strains of entrancing music from nine till .twelve. Excellent music and a perfect floor made the evening's danc ing one of the most enjoyable of years. The young men were all that could be desired as hosts and the dancing pro cram was arranged complete in every detail. Many beautiful gowns were in' evidence among the ladies attending. A feature of the evening's dancing program was the Lancers, a dance which has been omitted from local jrograms for some time and that ev ening found favor for the first time in the season. The "moon" effect was also much admired during the moon light waltz, being of artificial construction makes a very pretty scene for the dance. When the hour for Home, Sweet Home, came the dancers were much surprised, so quickly and delightfully had the evening passed. The punch table was presided over by Lois .Given. , Hallowe'en was most fittingly ob- on last Tuesday evening at the K. of P. hall. The evening was one set apart for a number of new members to go through the initiation and after this was finished and lodge work was over the ladies assembled in the par lors and enjoyed a number of games and other amusements. These were followed by a short music.nl program. After all had tired of games and social visits a ghost lead the way to the dining rooms which were appropriate : v. mv cutciuiiira a numoer of her schpol- hcious refreshments were served. The, mates at a birthday partv which luck committee in charge received many ily fell on the hallowe'en evening and words of appreciation from the depart-, so brought many opportunities for ing guests who pronounced that the added fun, which were well taken care evening had been the most enjoyable of by youngsters in attendance The of the year. , Haisten home on N anrl Rivth' ....... The ladies of the Lutheran church met at, the O. R. Stagcberg home on Thursday afternoon of this week. The afternoon was spent in discussion of the needlework sale winch is to be held in the near future. Many pretty arti cles were made and contributed dur ing the afternoon hours. All the la dies who did not bring their needles and w-ork were provided with some thing to do. It was decided to make the most of all time from now until the sale and the ladies of the parish so ciety are very busy. After work was laid aside the ladies enjoyed a short Focial hour during which light re freshments were served. On Wednesday evening about 75 men of the Methodist church, and a number of the business men of the eitv gath - j i tk. i,omt nf u ,.,i. ered in the basement of the new Meth-; odist church and enjoyed an informal social evening.

Mrs. Palmer's plan of having all business that is to come be fore the club pass first through the hands of a committee, is looked upon with favor by all club members.
