The last Assembly dance of this season's series was given last night at Shirk's hall. Society folks were out en masse, as there will be no other large social affair before Lent.

The lights, the smooth floor, the elegant gowns, jewels and flowers worn by the women made a brilliant scene. Montani Brothers' orchestra from Indianapolis furnished delight­ful music.

Punch was served in the reception room, which opens off the dancing hall. This apartment was artistical­ly hung with Turkish draperies and made a comfortable and cozy retreat for the dancers.

The costumes worn at the dance were all exceedingly pretty. The whole affair was equally as charm­ing as the Christmas dance, which was one of the smartest events that ever took place in Muncie. There were many out-of-town guests pres­ent.

Refreshments were served by Cater­er J. Rhine Hummel. Robert Murray was in charge of the check room.
