Sociability and TabIeanx.
The South church people had
pleasant time at their vestry on Fri
day evening. when sociability,
good supper and tableaux held full
sway. The latter represented scenes
described in several standard books,
and were much enjoyed by the
audience. The supper was sub
stantial and appetizing one, and the
whole evenings proceedings scored
one more point for those under
whose auspices they were arranged
and carried out.
On the same evening the ladies of
the North church held an informal
sociable, at which about hundred
and twenty-five were present to ex-
change greetings and enhance the
