West are travelling men, and they
conceived the idea of supper pre-
pared by the men, wholly and entirely By
men. All that the ladies had to do was
simply to come, eat and drink. Other nei
were enlisted in the scheme and soon the
drafts were made for victuals to be cooked
or compounded by the men only. Curry

Of cooking and washing dishes. There wa,
fragrance arising that betokened baking
beans. Pumpkin pies seemed to be evolved
from sort Of machine like a peanut
rOaster and every turn of the wheel droppec
pie that looked so delicious. Tod KincaiC
was the chief pie maker, and of all the pjef
that the pie makers make, none were ~,
good as Kincaid's pies. N. A. Finch war
the chief purveyor Of doughnuts. Large
well rounded doughnuts, were they. of "a
most appetizing flavor There were othec
jOughnuts that were constructed in the form
of the letter ii, and these were HaskelPs
and when they were eaten they were pyO
nOunced good. Stanley Parkill contributec
a cake which was marvel OF architecture

cakes could no. divert them from duty.
When the doors were opened in the even
ing the snowy linen OF the banquet tables,
the cut gla>s, the waving planes OF celery
and temples of cakes made ali imposing
scene. The menu cards set forth the fol
lowing poetry and prose:
We may live without poetry, music and art,
We may live without conscience, and live with

We may live without friends, se may live with
out books;
But now do folks livs wnen their Husband's
