The lawn party OF the Haven Church
last evening was well attended and all
seemed to enjoy themselves, although the
weather was rather cool for the sale OF
ice-cream and lemonade. Sometime in the
afternoon a boy got INTO the church and
stole some OF the supper and ice-cream
tickets and was giving them around to
his friends but the matter leaked out and
was reported to the president OF the Ia
dies aid society and the supper tickets
were changed and another kind used and
the ice-cream tickets were marked so that
none of those which were stolen could be
used without being detected. Several OF
the stolen supper tickets were presented
and it is now pretty well known who the
guilty party is
