The rain, clear- ed off in the evening and a largo number of citizens turned out for;the occasion. As Sou entered the rink to the left was a booth representing Great Bri- tain. The ladies were attired in na- tional costume and served, ice cream and cake. With the exception of Japan all the booths 'were decorated with red white and ;blue bunting and with flags rep- resenting the nations. ,japan, was decorated with leaves end pink flow - ens. The booths and decorations' made a vers picturesque scene. The booth of Prance sold sandwich- es and coffee; Belgium and Servia doughnuts and buttermilk; :tale pea ruts, popcorn, etc., Russia,; ice cream; Japan, tea and biscuits; and Canada home-made 'cand3, The booths .d. d a good :business all -evening. A fishing pond was alio well patronized. • Lalla•Baba. one of our 3oung •men dressed es a°fortune teller, did a good'b•usiness all evening. One of the interesting features was a series of tableaus put on 'b3 the eoung ladies of town, The Citizen's Band was present and added greati3 to the entertain- ment by their excellent selections. Just: 'at the close of the evening the ladies in costume held a grand: march presenting a vera fine spec- tacle..
