The Sunday School teachers seem to think they can Inteitest their classes In Easter without either candy or presents.
EHe borate' prefMtratknM are belns nu^e by tbe Crystal Lake manage¬ ment for the monster FoTcrtji Ball to be given In tbe baUroom of the hotel <*n Wednesdsy •venlng. April 7. Tbs feature of the dance will be that all the participants will wear the old^ clothet; in their possession, the nof elty of seeing the dancers in torn and tattered dress will be a change from .«ome of the elaborate dances that will be given at the bote! In the near future.
The innovation dance with tne rr»c dancing lesson by Mrs. Jean Btlles attracted a large number on last Frl day evening. In addition to the les¬ son in all the latest steps, an exhibi¬ tion by Mrs. Stiles and Harry Betsig was received with enthusiasm. On aci'ount of a previous engagement the dancing lesson by Mrs. Stiles will have to be omitted this week, t>ut the reg¬ ular dance will, be held as usual. It is expected that nothing will Inter¬ fere wUh the lesson after this week.
For those who are anxious to learn the up-to-date dancing free of charge, it is assumed that many will take ad¬ vantage of these lessons Introduced into the weekly dances. Until further notice this novelty will be a feature.
