The Sociable.
The sociable which was advertised
through our columns , and more exten
sively viva vocc , was held in the Dining
Hall , Friday evening , by the ladies of
the Episcopal church , assisted by a
large number of their friends. Supt.
Campbell kindly allowed the ladies the
use of the Dining Room for the occas
ion , and Mrs. Saunders , in addition tea
a very liberal donation , gave every
assistance possible. All the refresh
ments were donated by the ladies of
McCook , and the musicians who played
such-fine music , also rendered gratui
tous service , for which the ladies feel
grateful. By 9 o'clock between 75 and
100 persons had assembled in the Din
ing Room , comfortably filling the same.
Dancing was instituted and continued
until about 12 o'clock , when refresh
ments were passed to the dancers -and
spectators. After partaking of the deli
cacies offered by the ladies , dancing was
kept up until about 2 o'clock , when the
merry party reluctantly disbanded and
retired to their homes. While the so
cial was not as great a success finan
cially as was desirable , in every other
particular it was one of the most enjoy
able occasions of the ninny pleasant
ones in which our society has indulged
this fall. Indianola was brilliantly
represented , and their party evidently
enjoyed themselves.
