THE DISPENSIO CLUB
Hold a Banquet At The Delevan Tuesday Evening; Fine Menu, Smoker On Toast
There are Woman’s Clubs, Girl’s Clubs and Business Men’s Clubs, etc; and it was but natural that the young men should organize a club and be up-to-date in banquets, and all that goes, even to the “smoker”, so the “Dispensio” Club was organized. The name we presume means to divide work and pleasure. Their first efforts in launching the club was to divvy up equally and turn the “divvy” over to mine hosts Van Dusen & Myer of the Delevan for the purposes set forth and declared. And with them came Allens Orchestra. Messrs. Meyers & Van Dusen done the rest, except the toasts. The tables were dressed and palms adorned them and room and electroliers were draped in red. The following menu was “dispenseioed”:
