was manifested. It howover did not
take long for the young men to find

merrily. The day was enjoyed to the
utmost and the happy party returned
in the cool of the evening, with pleas

N. B.—A dove party is one where
none but ladies attend. It is always
necessary, however, to have another

a gay one) along to prevent accidents,
