On arrival at their destina tion the young people attended Sun day school In the forenoon, after which the day was given over to visiting Interesting places In and around the city. Woodvllle Is fast becoming a favorite place for picnic parties, as the distance from Grants Pass and the new motor car make a very favorable combination, which many parties have been taking ad vantage of during the recent good weather. The girls were well sup plied with lunch, sufficient for din ner and supper which were served in the grove under the trees, and re turned to Grants Pass on No. 16 in the evening, declaring they had en- Joyed the time of tblr lives. The Royal Neighbors of Camp No. 2909 and the Modern Woodmen of America met at their hall on last Friday evening and held a most en joyable social evening. A banquet was served in the banquet hall to which full Justice was done by those present. The attendance at this so cial meeting was not large but this did not in any way affect the Jolly good time which followed. The Royal Neighbors and the Modern Woodmen of America are noted for fbelr efficiency In the entertaining line, and when attending ono of their social gatherings one Is always sure of an evening well spent. This was no exception to the general rule. The members of the Ladles' Guild of St. Luke's Episcopal church held their regular monthly social meet ing In the Guild hall Wednesday afternoon. Retween 50 and (10 mem bers and friends were present and the afternoon was an exceptionally pleasant one. Mesdames Moss and McKlnstry served the guests with sherbet and wafers.

McAllister: Misses Iva McAllister, Merle Caldwell, Hazel Morey, Fay Sill: Messrs. Fred Wil cox, Rod Calvert, Lloyd Dyer, Clyde Martin. The promenade given by the mem bers of the Masonic Soclnl club at the Coliseum rink on last Friday night was ono of the most thoroughly en joyable affairs which has occurred In social circles for some time. There were about 40 couples present and those having the affair in rharge spared no pains to make the event one of perfect harmony and enjoy ment to all participating. At 9 o'clock the dance opened with a grand march, after which the danc ing continued uninterrupted until 1 o'clock. A slx-plece orchestra furn ished the music nnd punch was served to the dancers during the evening. The beautiful costumes of the ladles and faultless evening suits of the gentlemen were features which entered largely into the success of the evening and made the event one to be remembered as among the most enjoyable of the season. On Tuesday afternoon the mem bers of the Ladles' Aid of the New man M. E. church entertained nearly a hundred people at the church par lors, at their regular monthly social meeting. The day was rather a bad one and It was hardly expected that so large a number would attend, but the slight showers were not sufficient to keep the ladles away from the meeting, as they knew by previous attendance that they would miss a treat should they be absent. A short, but very interesting program was rendered, which consisted of an In strumental solo by Mrs. Foster, a reading by Mrs. R. A. Wade, and an address on W. C. T. U. work by Mrs. A. B. Church. Refreshments of ice cream and wafers were served; the ladles entertaining being: Mesdames Norton, Henkle, Isham, Van Louva, Martin, Sabln, Fallln and Dr. Cora Lemon. The Y. P. S. C. E. of the Christian church held their regular monthly; business and social meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Perdue on Third street Tuesday evening. A con-! slderable amount of business was on ' the docket and the young people' went to work with a will to dispatch i the same and It was done In a very creditable manner. One of the prin cipal Items of Interest to come before the meeting was the question of re modeling and fixing up the club rooms of the society. A committee was appointed to see to this matter and the rooms, reception room, kltch-i en and serving room are to be given special attention nnd the rooms will soon be rendy for use with all the modern requirements and furnish ings of nn energetic and up-to-date society and, although the president was not able to smile for about a week on account of a bad attack of poison oak, he Is now able to grin a little, and the smile Is slowly but surely reforming on his countenance. A Jolly social evening was enjoyed after the business was dispatched, there being about 20 members and friends present. Refreshments were served before the meeting adjourned.
