Delightful Entertainment at 
Magnolia. 
On Wednesday evening a repetition 
of the ‘‘Railroad Restaurant,’’ which was 
given with such success last year, took 
place in the hall of the Women’s club 
house, Magnolia. ‘The entertainment 
was held under the auspices of the 
Ladies’ Aid society, the committee in 
charge being Mrs. Willard Boyd, Mrs. 
Lafayette Hunt, and Mrs. Edgar Story. 
A stranger wandering in would wonder 
where he had arrived and whether he 
was ‘‘coming”’ or “‘going;’’ for such 
a conglomerate aggregation of characters 
and costumes was never gathered into 
the same building at any one time. 
The invitation to “‘come in costume’’ 
was accepted and the casual visitor would 
be conversing with and probably admir- 
ing an elegantly gowned lady when _ his 
feelings would be considerably jarred by 
a glimpse of—for a lady—an enormous 
foot or pair of feet as the case might 
have been. On the other hand a lady 
might be taking mental notes of an im- 
maculate ‘‘dandy’’ when a stray lock of 
hair escaping from under the shining tile 
would betray the wearer as being of the 
fairer sex. Fromthe arrival of the “‘ first 
train’’ to the departure of the last the 
evening was one round of merriment. 
Rev. F. J. Libby was a success as the 
policeman, and fully met the usual re- 
quirements of the guardian of the peace 
by being absent when most needed. 
Only the prompt action of the citizens 
present prevented the Masher from being 
lynched; as it was, he was made to stand 
on his head and execute a step dance to 
the tune of the cowboys’ revolvers. 
Honors were about even for first place 
the choice being between Dennis Ballou 
asa Lady of Quality, and Mrs. Henry 
Brown, dressed as a Spanish grandee. 
Mrs. Arthur Lycett and Miss Alice Story 
made charming Japanese ladies,  dis- 
pensing the cup that cheers of their 
native land. Miss Clara Butler as Hiram 
Green and Miss Georgia Dunbar as 
Hiram’s wife iooked and acted their re- 
spective parts true to life. Mrs. Wm. 
Symonds, straight from Cork was a 
corker. Mrs. Frank Story asa Spanish 
lady was the wife of Mrs. Henry Brown. 
Lafayette Hunt and Colby Staples were 
typical cowboys. John May was a crazy 
autoist exceeding the speed limit, Oscar 
Story was a Masher and Frank Abbott-— 
well he was a lady. Miss Libby as Miss 
Jinks and Miss Stanley as Miss Squeers 
were principals of the Cram seminary,— 
accompanied by their students. Miss 
Alice Sanborn represented a lady of the 
revolutionary period, Mrs. Knowles, s 
Red Cross nurse and Mrs. Fred Dunbaa 
was a very graceful aged lady. Otherr 
taking prominent parts were Mrs. Dennis 
Ballou, Lady of 1860; Helen Lycett, 
school girl; Grace Story, candy girl; 
Mrs. Crispen, nun; Nona Hight, Little 
Boy Blue; Eddie Hight, Dutch girl; 
Mrs. John May, jr., golf costume; Abbie 
May, caddie boy; Willie Knowles, sun- 
bonnett baby; Willie Hunt, Pickaninny. 
Mrs. McKay, Mrs. Malonson, Susan 
Lycett, Jennie Brown, Lizzie Brown, 
Gertrude West, Ruth Scott and Edna 
Symonds, students at the Cram seminary. 
The entertainment brought out the 
fact that there are many old and beautiful 
costumes in Magnolia families, of which 
the owners are justly proud. 
The colored waitresses were Mrs. 
Boyd, Mrs. Hunt, Mrs. Edgar Story and 
Mrs. Frank ;Abbott. Music was furn- 
ished by the Chane orchestra.
