An edict had gone forth requesting those who attended to wear some cos tume other than the conventional at tire and In consequence there were some handsome and grotesque rai ments there. Mrs. Van N'uys as a gypsy fortune teller was caught throwing dust In the eyes of her patrons. Mrs. Coulter as a suffragette provok ed much merriment. Mrs Putnam made a charming geisha girl. Mrs. Walton as Red Riding Hood received much favorable comment Miss Shehau as the Parisian model wore a wonderful creation and her headgear was the latest word In milli nery. Mrs. Keating as the "Daily Hint from Paris" was the envy of the Val ley Crest modistes. Her gown of Irish green with orange trimmings was a very harmonious blend. Miss Fillers' impersonation of Sis Hopkins was very realistic and could eaily pass as her understudy. Mrs. Mann as an Irish coleen had the brogue down pat. Miss Puddy as the "Girl with the Curl" looked quite cute. Ned Van Nuys as General Disability was the hero of the evening. L. V. Rose as a society bud was very charming. W. I. Cornell as the Tobasco girl was all to the mustard. A. B. Coulter's togs typified yellow journalism. M. O. Boe as the Artful Dodger had a Dickens of a good time. H. P. Goodlander as one of Governor West's honor man was seen casting furtive glances at the jewelry worn by S. F. Ricketts. Ray Babson as the human sandwich did a variety of stunts. Jess Hutson as an unbleached blonde was very taking particularly when the cake was passed. C. E. Craven as a Hollander talked like a Dutch uncle. W. H. Tobey as a chanticleer did very little crowing and seemed to get niffed when he looked at Walt Mason's ducks. The fun began Immediately upon en tering. Bags containing 20 peanuts were handed you and If you answered 'yes" or "no" to any question pro pounded to you you had to forfeit a peanut. C. E. Mcintosh struck on a novel question which netted him the most nuts. He whispered in the ear of each person "Will you have a drink of cider." Of course, the drys would emphatically say "No," while the wets would Just as emphatically say "yes.' There was only one who did not bite at his bait and that was W. E. Clark but the reason for that was he wore ear muffs and did not hear him. A whistling contest by the ladles was marred by a small boy who vig orously began sucking a lemon Just as they were In the middle of the tune. The efficiency of our school system was demonstrated In the spelling bee that was part of the program and Miss Shehan is justified in feeling flattered by the showing made and the applause which greeted the spelling of a word established the fact that the whole audience seemed to know when a word was correctly spelled. Miss Northey, the county librarian made an address, after which refresh ments were served. Miss Mary Allen, Mrs. A. U. Coulter and Mrs. C. C, Walton, those Indefatigable workers, were responsible for the evening's enjoyment. It could not be learned to whom the costume prizes were awarded as Miss Allen refused to "let the cat out of the bag." FAMOUS LECTURER COMING Robert P. Miles, Will Entertain Upper Valley Folk Friday Robert Parker Miles, dramatic lec turer, author and reformer, will give one of his lectures as the next num ber In the entertainment course at Mclsaac's Hall on Saturday jvening, February 8. Mr. Miles has had an exceptional opportunity for studying some of the great world problems and of mooting many of the famous world character who were helping to work out these problems. By virtue of his great dra matic power he Is abl to reproduce, upon the platform, such celebritie as "Tallow DIps,"'wlth striking vividness, until they live before his audiences as exponents of great fundamental truths and give the lesson of their livfs to the world. Mr. Mib might have been a great actor he has great dramatic ability and his audiences carry away vivid pictures of the great personagps whom he has characterized as "Tallow Dips" or "Sparks" pictures as clear and cU an cut as camTos.
