The Rantjst Entertainment,

The entertainment given by the Ladies'
Aid Society, of the Baptist church, was a
nice affair and was highly enjoyed. The
evening amusement was divided into sew
eral different things. To commence with,
was the supper, which consisted of many
good things too numerous to mention.
You could get any price meal YOU wished
from q picayune to fifty cents. In this
connection, we return thanks to Miss
Bette Hardy for an excellent supper. The
post-ofice was literally patronized by the
young people, and we suppose many a
heart was made happy by sweet words
from the one loved best. The Gypsy for
tune teller was there ready and willing to
tell your future destiny, prosperity and
adversely for a small enumeration. These
consisted in part OF the amusementA ar
ranged for the evening, but are not all, for
we must not omit to mention the fact that
conversation seemed to be animated and
enjoyed by all participants. Smiles and
dissatisfaction could be seen written on
the faces of the young ladies and gentle
men, and much real enjoyment on the
faces of the middle aged and old. Hart
mans band was there and played some OF
their best pieces. 1t was as late as eleven
O'Clock before the crowd began to disperse
and it was then evidently with regret they
could not remain longer. Proceeds TWEEN
ty-eight dollars and seventy-five cents.
