The young people Of the First Baptist
church gave a social at their class rooms
on last Monday evening. The principal
and most popular feature of the entertain
ment was an old fashioned spelling match.
The surprises were many and the enjoy
ment great. The eagerness with which
the young men retreated, would, at any
other place and time, have suggested polit-
ical ambition, but there it was only at
tributed to their modesty and extreme def
erence to the ladies. We are promised
other opportunities TO retrieve lost stand
ing, and spelling books will be brought
given by the young people, but the old as
well as the young are welcome, and the
older persons divided the honors. On
Monday evening, Feb. Q, the young ladies
will give basket social ALL are cordially
invited.
