COPPER TRAIL BALL

You Must Not Miss It Who is not coming on May 4th? Coming where? Coming here to the ball ot the season; seasoned with beauty, sparkle and wit. Happy Hastings does not think she will be there because: Oh, Boys! the girls, the ballet, the legs! Why, she’s shocked. Happy Hastings, unexpectedly enjoyed last year’s shipwreck ball, but thinks tho copper trail ball will be too much for her, despite the fact that such worthy dignitaries as His Worship the Mayor, aod the Deputy Mayor will be there to add the sovereign touch, and to welcome Sir Hundred Pounds during .the evening. All coins of the Realm are extended a hearty welcome to the coffers, but Dollars and Sense are absolutely prohibited, to be perfectly frank Happy Hastings wants to know if she can bring her threepences, but babies in arms are not allowed. Bobs and Sprat will have to stay home to mind them. We tell Happy Hastings that if she comes unchaperoned and to play wallflower she will have to pay 3 6, but if Hezekiah Hayloft brings her he must pay 6/-. We have every hope that he will come and ioin the trail of notable celebrities. His Grace the Duke of New Guineas, the worthy Arch-Bishop Alluvial Gold. Sir Safety Banks, and Sir and Lady Ready-Cash, well known for their prize-winning Bring-Tin-T in. “Smithy" wires from mid-air, “Where and when ?” 0.K.. Smithy. 8 p.m.. Assembly Hall, May 4th.
