During Recess 



Nassau County Horticultural Society. 



The Euchre and Dance held at Pem- 

 broke Hall on Monday night, Feb. 27, 

 under the auspices of the Nassau 

 County Horticultural Society was a 

 brilliant success. The sale of tickets 

 were limited to 300 and long before 

 the date of the affair the entire sup- 

 ply had been disposed of and more 

 could have been sold but under the 

 circumstances it was impossible as 

 the Hall was filled to its utmost cap- 

 acity. 



After the Euchre was over and the 

 prizes distributed to the winners, the 

 remainder of the night was devoted 

 to dancing which was kept up until 

 the "wee sma' hours." Miller's or- 

 chestra provided the music. Several 

 couples also enjoyed some Scotch 

 dances, the music for the latter was 

 provided by Harry Tough on the bag- 

 pipe. There was also a supper which 

 was enjoyed by all.

The New York Banquet. 



The outlook for the annual dinner 

 of the New York Florists' Club, 

 March 18, is very brilliant. A member 

 of the committee reports that already 

 practically every seat on the ground 

 floor — 230 chairs^has been sold. 



Ladies' Night at Astoria. 



Last week's session of the Astoria, 

 N. Y., Bowling Club was Ladies' Night, 

 about twenty being in attendance. 

 There was a nice supper and plenty of 

 bowling, the first prize, a pair of 

 candlesticks, presented by Mr. Arnold, 

 being captured by Mrs. Einsman. 

 Among the other useful presents dis- 

 tributed were some capacious pocket- 

 books. 



Rutherford vs. New York. 



A fine reception and lunch was given 

 the New York bowlers by the Ruther- 

 ford boys on March 1st at the Cron- 

 stadt alleys where the return match 

 was held on March 1. Rutherford led 

 by 60 in total pins and the noise and 

 exultation of the Jerseyites can better 

 be imagined than described. The 

 scores follow:
