The L.O.L., 1085, box social came off on Thursday evening as advertis- ed and was attended by a fair crowd, and though a misfortune occurred to th3 radio machine which put it out of business, the program was all that ::ould be desired of a socail evening. Although chairman C. H. Smith had to depend on local talent to fill in they responded heartily with recitations, songs and music. The orchestra com- posed of Saysrs, Esland and Brown- ridge, violins; John Robinson, traps, and Ivan .Alexander, guitar, and Miss Esland, accompanist, was especially fine. Bro. .\. J. Conron gave three recitations in good styk and the reci- tation of little Garnet McKenzie en- titled, ".\ Maiden's Mistake"' brought down the 'nouse. C&me again, Garnie. We noticed that chairman Smith pickad up the talent nearly ail from one side of the hall and his explana- tion was that it was easier travelling 3n that side.

The sleigh struck the end of the bridge railing with terrific forcv?, everjtine who saw it thinking that ^hey had gone for a five mile run home. However they went straight up the hiil. one horse wanting to go to the Go'f shed and the other appar- enly t. igh the Presbyterian shed was gooJ. enough for him. The Gofrite fellow came to grief in the snow and had to stop. Nothing more than a tew break.s in the harness was tihe result. Messrs.
