E KKK KK RK KKK KK KD The next few weeks are planned to be of much gel.y in the social af- fairs of Bemidji. Several large dances have been planned and sev- eral informal and bridge parties will be given. The Bemidji band will give a mas- querade dance at the city hall Jan. 21. This dance is being advertised 1 as the biggest masquerade ever given in Bemidji and we feel sure that it will be as good as the press notices announce, as the band boys are mak- ing elaborate preparations. An ex- cellent music program will be given at the dance. Other dances are being planned for the next two weeks, among them be- ing a dance by several young men of the city who have formed the Ques- tion club. : Many skating and sleigh parties are being held. Ice skating and roller skating in Bemidji is no longer merely a sport but has become a fash- ion and requires fitting costumes. Skating is superseding dancing as the pastime of the hour.
