Moose Banquet
Meets With
Popular Approval
Those desiring to attend the
Moose meat banquet, entertain
ment and dance, are urged to pro
cure their admission tickets
early so that a seat may be re
served for you at the banquet
table. It is also requested that j
those who have tickets for sale'
make a verbal report to Harry
Nelson Thursday night, as to
how many tickets have been dis
posed of. in order that the Ban
quet Committee and the Moose!
Chef may ascertain the probable
number that will attend and the
amount of food necessary to be
cooked.
Tickets are going fast, and you
are urged to secure yours now,
either through one of the Moose
members or at some of the busi
ness houses. If you have never
tasted fresh Moose meat before,
you will sure want to sit in on
this treat—and if you have eaten
it before, you will surely want
an opportunity to partake of it
again. Why?—Because it is so
different when cooked in wine.
See page three of this issue for
the Moose meat Banquet menu.
Programs will be distributed
to the public beginning today,
and if you fail to receive one,
telephone the Nugget Office, and
©he will be sent you. Thanks.
