Leo Chee was much wanted in the chorus, but de- clined to venture from the kitchen, where the baskets of joy were stored and the te pots singing—in Chinese. Mr. Hue Tle, the delegate from South Omaha came late, but was in at the finish. Nearly all wore the regulation Chinese shoe and moved about with such noiselessness that mev. E. H.

The former rong was printed in Chinese on a banner which was strung across the west wall of the room. Another banner of red, running up two sides of the room and across the top of two windows bore characters which are sald to have spelied “Happy New Year." There were Chinese lanterns, fans and um- brellas suspended from the celling and fastened to the walls, and the lunch in- cluded, besides American ice cream and cake, some Chinese nuts, candy and conver- satlon, In addition to the Chinamen's songs, the program included a response to Joe Lee's address by Pastor Jenks, a whistled solo by Master Paul Bradley, a song by Master Robert McCormick, another by Mr. Will McCune and music by the band.
