The young ladies of Winfield who have enjoj-ed the hospitality of the Mis tletoe and Pleasant Hour clubs during the past winter gave expression of their appreciation by entertaining the gentlemen at an elaborate Easter dancing party at Albright's hall last Friday night.

With feminine ingenuity they transformed the hall into a tasty ball room. Purple and gold, the Elk colors, and comfortable Japanese alcoves and cosy corners combined to add the touch of festivity. Blnme's orchestra, of Wich ita, furnished music for themerry inak ers and a buffet lunch gratified the inner man. The party was one of the largest of the year and undoubtedly the most pleasant. BEAUTIFUL EASTER PARTY.

The pretty house event of "Easter week was the large card party given last Thursday afternoon by Mesdames Frank Ballein and Ross Stratton at the home of the former. Fifty-six guests responded to the invitations and enjoyed the hospitality of these popular hostesses. The Ballein home was lav ishly decorated in Easter colors, white and gold, and made fragrant with sweet spring blossoms. The pretty gowns of the guests blended in tasteful harmony. Tables were arranged for cards and quaint score cards, suggestive of the Eastertide, faciliated the selection of partners and started the game merrily.

The card honoi were pretty pieces of table silver. At the conclusion of the games a splendid two com se luncheon was serv ed by the hostesses, all the appointments of which were in white and gold and especially pretty. AN EXCELLENT RECITAL. There was not a dull nor unsatisfac tory moment during the programme of Miss Margaret Ebright's graduating recital at Southwestern college chapel Tuesday night. Her natural grace and ease gained almost perfect attention from the audience during her first num ber and the same intense interest was manifest until a few people left the hall because of the threatening aspect of the weather.

Miss Ebright's numbers were especial ly suited to her musical temperament Sheplajrs with great sincerety and with exceptional feeling. Fineness of touch and remarkable technique were especially noticeable in the first number, a concerto in min or, by Mendelsshon. The Wagner-Liszt number, Thou Sublime Sweet Even ing Star," was played with charming tenderness and real poetic feeling. The rendition, of the Tanhanser march was decidedly lacking in grandeur and dramatic power, which mav, however, have been due to the disturbance made by those who were leaving the hall on account of the storm. Enthusiastic applause was given the player after each number.

Miss Estelle Strother assisted in the programme by reading two numbers in a most charming manner. Miss Strother's work is familiar to Winfield audiences and it is certainly not exaggerating the truth to say that she is superior to nine- tenths of the professional readers that appear hear with paid attractions. She has a naturalness when reading that makes her work seem almost perfectly real in its effect.
