forty seats were quickly filled and a
pleasant half hour passed in discuss

things provided by their hosts, after

make way for a second supply OF

about two hundred persons we're serv-
ed with supper. It is perhaps entirely

that the supper was most excellent
and served in The best of style, espec-
tally as the Rebekahs had it In
charge. After the supper the guest,
