SPLENDID SUCCESS
W. M. Toney, who organized an
Old Time Dance Club here some two
weeki ago, is meeting with splendid
success. At the dance on Wednesday
night there wax a fair turnout and
those present expressed the wish that
these dances be kept up. Mr. Toney's
Family Orchestra, which supplied the
music, was all that could be wished
for and surely proved their ability
to handle their instruments.
The
singing of a number of pieces by the
lady who played the flute was much
appreciated, and the music as a whole
was fine, smooth, dancing music.
Any of the “old-timers” who love the
old time dances, such as Quadrilles,
Waltzes, Two-steps, etc., are certain­
ly assured of a good time by attend­
ing these dances. Mr. Toney an­
nounces that he will again be in Day­
ton on Wednesday evening Jan. 6,
and every two weeks thereafter. The
orchestra is in the hall and “Rearin’-
to-go” at eight o'clock sharp and if
you are there at this time you can
have four hours of the finest time of
your life.

As Seen By Our Special McMinn­
ville Correspondent.
Margaret Isaac, of Grand Ronde,
died Saturday night in the McMinn­
ville hospital, the result of a drunk­
en party in which she was a partici­
pant and Ralph Easter, her escort is
being held in the county jail pending
action to be taken after an investiga­
tion by the County Coroner, at Sheri­
dan.
According to the report as given
by Ralph Easter, a party consisting
of himself, Sam Countryman, Jose­
phine Florence McKinney and Mar­
garet Isaac went to New Grand
Ronde to the LaBonta place where
they purchased a pint of moonshine
and after drinking it decided to go
back and get some more which they
did, this time getting two pints ami
after drinking it they drove to Will­
amina. Margaret, who was in n
drunken condition, became jealous of
Easter nnd accused him of “stepping-
out" with another girl. I nthe dis­
cussion she opened the car door and
before Easter could stop her she
jumped from the car. They took
the girl to a doctor in Sheridan
who told them to take her home that
she would be allright when she sobered
up. The party spent the night nt the
Wirf Mill where Margaret lay un-
concious all night and her family was
sent for the next day. Dr. Barendrict
from McMinnville had her taken to
the McMinnville hospital, where she
died Saturday night. It was stated
that her death was caused by a frac­
tured skull.
