the table. The next dodge was to get
five cents dish for ice cream and Ave
cents a glass for lemonade from the
generous cltizsns who came for the

support the church in it's good work,
but not to be imposed upon in this

ing. The program was not carried
out OH account OF it being 80 late when
the last table was cleared. The amount
clear of expenses is S31.
