Soc1abIe at the Broadway Presbyterian
Church

Church
A very pleasant and enjoyable sociable,
such as the congregation of the Broadway
Presbyterian church are noted for giving,
was held in the parlors of the church last
evening. There was good attendance
and the affair was exactly what the name
implies. The participants in the most
natural way dropped iu TO supper and
having pa-taken of the good things pro-
vided. spent the evening in social conver-
sation and interchange of ideas. There
were a number of friends present besides
those Of the congregation. and the pleasant
reception by the pastor and lay brethren,
which is always a feature of these gather
ings, made the welcome considerably more
than formal. The supper was the especial
care of the ladies, and was enhanced by
the quaint and pretty costumes adopted by
the young ladies' who performed the pleas
ing duties Of attendants.
