Mrs. Chester Sloper was elected president for the ensuing year. In a brief address Mrs. Sloper social in charge Davidson, Ingram, and Wolfe. The" Woman's club held its regular meeting for the year at The social given recently under the auspices of the Epworth League, to compliment the corps of teachers was a pleasant affair and was largely attended. The parlors of the Metho dist church were beautifully decorated with bright hued autumn leaves and vines and at an early hour were thronged with friends, who were glad of this opportunity to meet the honor guests. Each person came to represent a geographical location and considerable amusement was afforded by the ingenious way in; which some of the names were suggested. For instance, the ladies were a bit shocked to see that Mr. Vannice had failed to remove hrs hat, but when the name Manhattan was suggested the appar ent oversight was explained, and Prof. Bycrs, immaculate in appearance, but minus a necktie caused consider able agitation among his students, until (some one remembered Noti, and so on there were dozers of places represented and an hour or more was passed solving them. The "observation" questions caused no end of fun, the question as to whether our Mayor wore glasses, being a poser, till correctly answered by one of the young ladies, no one seemed to be sure what member of the board wore glasses and no one but Van Nesf? Johnson was at all certain as to the number of churches in the town, and there wasn't a soul in the room could tell the color of Dinty Moore s hair. The pleasant evening was closed by the serving of lunch by those having the entertainment in charge. When the members of the Tatting club met with Mrs. C. W. Henkle Monday afternoon they found a pleasant surprise in store for them. Instead of the usual sewing and read ing Mrs. Henkle took her guests for a long ride. The route chosen was to Albany on the west side with a short stop in that city's beautiful park, then on the newly paved high way to Salem. In this city the party stopped for refreshments, then to Independence. The paved route between Albany and Salem is a most scenic one, the road winding as U does thro' the hills with long sweeping curves arid gentle grades, then out into the open country past fine farm houses and well kept prosperous looking farms, makes a trip long to be remembered, ard the ladies were unanimous in the opinion that Mrs. Henkle had planned and carried out a delightful after noon's entertainmert. Those enjoy ing Mrs. Henkle's hospitality were: Mesdames Hibbs,, Drexler, Walker, Mattison, Thomas, Robinson and Davis. At the Baptist church last Friday evening was held one of those "Bap tist Mixers," for which these people are becoming famous. At 6:30 tables were spread in the basement and those presort enjoyed a dinner of everything from chicken to pumpkin pie with whipped cream. Then fol lowed a musical program in the church, one of the numbers being a selection by the newly organized church choir. At the ar.nual business meeting which followed, Mr. Proppe was called as pastor of the church for an indefinite period. The new church year promises to be a most prosper ous one. Mrs. Eliza Ewing, whose birthday occurred last Monday had derided to give herself a birthday party and had invited Mr. and Mrs. Orr and Mr. and Mrs. Stalling to help her cele brate the occasion. But Mrs. Ewing's friend3 had other plans for the day and shortly before noon several ladies arrived at the Ewing home bearing well filled baskets and an nounced that they had come to dirner. It was a short matter to extend the dining table and Mrs. Ewing's fried chicken and "fixins" added to the contents of the baskets made a feast most thoroughly enjoyed by the merry party seated about the table. Guests of the day were: Mr. and Mrs. Orr, Mr. and Mrs. Stalling, Mesdames E. B. Smith, Stansberry, Wellington and i McHenry Smith. To compliment Mrs. Edna , Byers, whose birthday occurred recently, iaveral of the Methodist ladies planned and carried out a pleasant surprise for her in the church parlor's. The large room was made most . at- J tractive with autumn leaves and huge clusters of deer) red dahlias. At the close of a pleasant 'afternoon, passed flr-v- rn fj-nr?

The club is planning a reception to be given the teachers of the high school and grade school, the date de cided uponl being Tuesday, Oct. 25th. Committees on entertainment, refreshments and decoration were appointed for the event. The club wishes to acknowledge the receipt of about 50 quarts of canned fruit donated by Andy Wilson, for distribution among the needy and to thank G. G. Walker for storage room for the same. At the close of the session Mrs. Eldrklge served delicious refresh ments. Last Sunday was Rally Day at the Baptist Sunday school and a most in teresting program was presented by the pupils. One pleasing feature was the presentation of the names of 17 babies to be added to the cradle roll, by Mrs. F. 0. Parker, superintendent 1 .,.1, ...I n.l.tl'lll ,!. in their white car ml apron.
