SUNRAY SCHOOL CONVENTION.
The Sunday school specialists, who
will have special charge of the County
Sunday school convention which be-
gins at the Methodist church tomor-
row at 2 p. m., have been touring
Oklanoma for a month holding coun-
ty conventions. A long distance tele-
phone message says that Prof. Roper's
music and the special work of Mrs.
Dowis have proven such attractive
features that no building has been
found to hold their audiences, and
great enthusiasm has been aroused.
El Reno is fortunate in having these
distinguished specialists come to lead
in this convention.
Mr. C. H. Nichols, state secretary
of the general Sunday School Union,
will be in special charge of the con-
vention.
All sessions will be held at the
First M. E. church, and the conven-
tion will continue until Monday
night.

RECEPTION AND DANCING PARTY
The reception and dancing party
given last night at the Elks Home by
Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Wright and Mr.

Maryville, Mo., Dr. and Mrs. Herod i
of Alva, Mr. and Mrs. Fay Bond of ■
Oklahoma City, Mrs. .1. M. Walker
of Mangum and Miss Helen Brown
of Boulder, Colorado out of town
guests.
The Elks Home was a scene of >
beauty, the costumes of the ladies, j
the brilliant lighting effects and the j
many cut flowers and ferns tending
to make the party one long to be re-
membered by the favored guests.
An out of town orchestra seated
at the head of the grand stairway
during the reception discoursed ex-
cellent music. The dancing program
composed of the usual waltzesand two-
steps was featured by old fashioned
dances such as the Virginia reel and
quadrilles, a decided novelty greatly
enjoyed by the dancers. Master Hay-
ward Wright distributed the pro-
grams.
Fruit ices were served during the
evening, by Misses Helen Gerrer and
Ruth Walker. An elaborate buffet
supper was served during the even-
ing from a long table lighted with
candles and decorated with carna-
tions and ferns.
