Last Tuesday mglit the young ladies
and gentlemen of our city held a sur¬
prise party at the home of Mr. W. J.
Norton.
Owing to the grip that La Grippe
bad upon some of the hoys, only a
few were present.
The young people worn ably enter¬
tained bv charming music from Misses
Lilia and Ella Norton, and Mrs, J. W.
Thompson, The pantomime game
was then played until a late hour.
Although, Uie object (?) of the
gathering wau to decide as to what
kind of sociable to have Christmas
week, the consultation was not he'd
until . , a number , Urd ,1# left; consequently ,
no decision wa* reached. The boys
think another ’-sty-prise party” should
be gotten up to decide this question.
