The entertainment of the evening de pended largely upon the ability of those present, along the lines of Art and Literature, which was the source of great amusement and hilarity.

Eight young ladies were the guests of Miss Foley and during the evening topics of intense Importance to the feminine sex were discussed. While the suffrage was not entirely settled, it is believed since this meet ing that there is more light on the subject and a better chance for ad justment than ever before. Matters of local importance were not entered into owing to lack of time, but they will be considered later. At a proper time during the evening refreshments of German extraction were served and the club adjourned until its reg ular meeting.

Glbbs.) I have been asked to make a short review of church conditions in this city.. I am not one who Is addicted to statistics, for business purposes, they are no doubt necessary, but I find they are very deceptive In regard to a true spiritual valuation. I recall the words of a venerable bishop speaking about church growth, "It 'matters little," he said, "whether this church of ours be comes large numerically, what is Im portant is that we kvep !ib faith." The point he stressed v.m that frit ciple must never be s.'.cr:fu ed t. ?.ain numbers. As far as my obserr..' n xoes, all the religious bodies n-r-rev hf? exhibit a growth In l nn-l n- and & general advance In a ;n -'irhl wiy. Some have made substtn'J ! Impiow) menta in their worklni" j.!' ji, while others are planning for ne .

Purchaser will be handed a ticket with amount of purchase and date of same.

Speaking for myself, I rejoice In the spiritual growth and progress of my Roman Catholic, Presbyterian, Meth odist and other brethren, not only for their sakes hut also for mine, as there la a common benefit from the success of one which is shared In by all. . And now as we stand on the thresh old of a new year I take this oppor-' tunity to extend, to bid one and all uouspeea, ana cxiena u aposioua greeting, "Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ" Xstfee. :.
