‘ Mi-s. Ora T. Ross, Mrs. A. F. Long and Mrs. C. G. Spitler gave a delightful social affair at the home of the former last evening. There were about thirty-five guests present, enjoying an evening of cards and an excellent dinner. The decorations were in keeping with Hallowe'en. The out of town guests were Dr. and Mrs. J. H.

/Two members of the Lincoln Chautauqua bureau were in Rensselaer today conferring with the local committee relative to the visit of the Chautauqua in Rensselaer again next summer. The two men state that they think satisfactory arrangements can be made for the return of the Lincoln company to this city in 1917. Indications at this time are favorable. It is probable that the ministers of the Rensselaer* churches will take charge of the local affairs and arrange to have the company back here. It was at first the intention not to give any definite action until the first of December, at least. ■' x
