Tho wlnnors in tho rabbit hunting contest that took place last week, as announced In tho last Issue of Tho Record, wore appropriately entertained enter-tained last Tuesday ovonlng. An claborato chicken banquet, augmented aug-mented by innumerable other delicacies delica-cies was served In tho B. F. Knell building at 8 p. m. About twenty couples participated, and "cat, drink and bo merry" was tho order of tho hour. Tho spread was somothlng to bo remembered for a long time hence. Ono member of the party expressed himself to our reporter as being of the opinion that as tho West Ward had shown themselves as being such lHH masters in the entertaining art, tho flHH fete should be repented onco in ovory HJIJJHm two months nt least. HBfll Mr. Wlllard Corry was given tho BBBm rolo as toast-master and succeeded HRHI in getting a rcsponso from nearly cv- HH ory gentleman present. After all had HhHB oxhnusted their ability to show any Hflflfl moro appreciation for tho viands, u Hl lingering departuro was taken and tho HH company repaired to tho Ward Hall, HRiH whero the cast ward nimrods wore IHhII given free tickets to tho danco in IHiH progress there. After dancing for 1 some time their feelings began to alter aBH regarding tho banquet that, in a care- ll less moment, they had been induced HH to leave, and the memory of which Hl still llngerod in their recollection, un- iHfl til they could stand tho temptation HH no longer and throwing prudenco to Hfl tho winds, they returned to thosccno IHH of their former vnnquishment, nnd 1 this time allayed tho gost in a man- H ner that assured its retirement from H thoir fancies for tho night. As thero H was nothing left now to haunt their H tired visions, they dispersed to their H several places of abode and enjoyed H "a well earned rest" H |
