Games, contests and merrymaking were participated in, Interspersed with social conversation and music, both vocal and Instrumental. Fun and frolic filled the whole evening. There was a contest, in which a huge bowl filled with peanuts was placed on the floor and the boys were given minature fishing tackle and told to fish the peanuts out of the bowl, and the one fishing out the most and the least was to be awarded a prize. This delightful contest took up the greater portion of the time and aroused con siderable merriment and the boys entered Into this sport in a very en thusiastic manner and became very much Interested In It. Floyd Mc Hanlel captured the first prize, a Jumping Jack, and Ralph Larson car ried off the booby prize, a rolly-poly.
