bazaar and supper was most ausplclous.
The bare rooms and halls In the base
ment OF the church were transformed,
under the deft fingers Of the ladies'. into
places OF beauty. All day they worked
hard at the decorations, aud they con-
templated the result last night with
some degree of SATISFACTION. Early In
the evening patrons bd2n to arrive,
aud the throug was constaTy augment
ed until there was scarcely rom left to
move about. The articles which were
offered for sale were very attract

their purchases. The receipts for the

affair was the bevies Of beautiful girls
who catered TO the wants OF patrons 10

Irresistible, you know, and that explains
the large receipts on the hrst night.
One commendable feature was the alb
sence Of the "chance" and vote"
books. which are ordinarily associated
with the masculine idea OF church fes-
tivals.

pose, a fact which the patron will dis
cover without direction, by the use OF his
olfactories during the supper hour.
