E.o. VS. ORGANIZE.

A number of marriageable young
ladies and gentlemen met last FRIDAY
evening in the parlors of the Bush
House and organized the society of
L. Q. v. with a good membership.
Now just what E. Q. v. stands for or
represents is more than this deponent
kloweth, but he is informed by one
of the members that the aims and
purposes of the order are for the adj
vancement Of social and literary cul-
tuIe. Il is the only secret order in
the city having these sole aud distinct
ideas and none of its members are
Ineligible to matrimony. Meetings
are held semi-monthly at family resi-
dences, the gatherings occurring on
Friday evenings. The secrets are
carefully guarded, not being talked,
even behind closed doors and drawn
curtains, above q whisper. A full set
of officers were elected the names of
whom, together with their respective
positions, are as follows:
Miss Sadie Bush, Z. s.; Miss Geor-
gle Porter, V. S.; Mr.. g. N. Sitman,
s.; j. B. Brown, Treas.; j. A. Leather
wood, NJ. o. c.; W. E McKelvy, A.
NJ. o. c.; Miss Chockie LAHORE,
L. |. w.
The Ardmoreite, while not eligible
to membership, feels deep interest
in the Z. @. V.'s aud will gladly 9 ID
its columns to further its aims when
ever called upon to do so. Don't be
bashful ladies and gentlemen if you
do use E. Q. V. as handle to your
names, but speak up in meeting and
through the Ardmoreite, which is
always at your service.
