The meeting hold Wednesday
evening of last week by Vernonia
Temple Pythian Sisters was its an
nual meeting and marked the con­
clusion of the term of office of
Mrs. Martha Brady as most ex­
cellent chief. During the past year
she has come from Warren twice
each month to fill this office and
has had perfect attendance in
spite of the distance and weather
conditions. She had started through
the chairs of the local organization
prior to her move to Warren.
The meeting included such re­
ports as that of the auditing com­
mittee, the membership roll as of
the end of 1966 and other items to
conclude the years business.
Also, a practice was held for in­
stallation of officers which will be
held Wednesday evening of next
week, January 25 and will be open
to the public. Mrs. Cora Lange will
be the installing officer, serving
as acting grand chief, and will be
assisted by Mrs. Isabel Culbertson,
acting grand senior and Mrs. Murel
Folken, acting grand manager.
The meeting will be preceded by
a potluck dinner at 6:30 p.m. to
which families and friends are in­
vited. The installation will be at
7:30 p.m. After the conclusion of
the installation, the guests will be
excused to visit in the dining room
while a short business session is
held.
Following the meeting, refresh­
ments in the dining room were un­
usual in that sack lunches brought
by members were exchanged. Two
members insisted on exchanging
with each other and when bags
were opened, they revealed tooth­
picks carefully wrapped in waxed
paper, no doubt an indication that
the ladies felt need for dieting after
all the holiday indulgences. The
social hour became somewhat hil­
arious as members matched stor­
ies of absentminded actions which
had led them to some unusual ex­
periences. Each felt better as she
heard the experiences of others
which proved that She weren’t al­
one in her occasional lapses into
unaccounted for acts.
