After an interesting program and plenty of typical old fashioned re- freshments, the real hilarity began, for in spite of their wrinkled faces and bent forms, the sturdy pioneers demonstrated that they still possess the vim and energy that character- ized them in the early days and helped them make Omaha the great !clly it is today. | Dances of Olden Times. | Clearing the floor and striking up the {0ld time tunes, they chose their partners for a quadrille bald headed, white whiskered men and gray-haired women produced a scene of J {HONOR TO THOSE WHO ARE OON'E'A Over 200 white-haired pioneer Ploneers, | |WILL ENTERTAIN GUESTS AT LUNCHEON AND THEATER party at the Orpheum Mesdares Mesdames @oorge Nichols Willtam Cox Hadley Fotes me = Trimble | Jumes Carter M.

A reminiscent talk by James Walsh of | Benson was the principal feature of the | program, 1t recalled many memories of the early days, and alternately gladdened and saddened the hearts of the crowd with mention of their ploneer experi- | ences.
