cess marked the fifteenth annual bazar

with willing patrons and the attendance

Everything relating to the affair had
been perfectly planned, attestlng
the very capable management of the
ladies. The different booths where the
fancy goods, the candies, bon -bons,
ETC.. the Delikatessen and the other Of
ferings were on sale, were prettlly
arranged and attended by earnest
saleswomen, while the three long sup
per tables were handsomely set and
manned by corps of efficient, obliging
Mattresses The customary excellent
supper was served and it is safe to say
no one left the tables hungry or dissat
isfed with the menu. Much of the
wares offered for sale was disposed of
at good prices, in fact, some Of the
booths were entirely cleaned out. The
clubs profits on the venture amounted
to over $3.50.

city, has the following to say:
Rey. H. S. Foster, OF this city, has
accepted call from the vestry of St.
PauPs church at WATERFOWL, and will
leave Stoughton next week for his new
field. Tie best tribute The Hub can
paw to Mr.. Foster in his leave taking is
that regrets come not alone from his
own church or his own people, but are
shared by this entire community. For
/ two years be has worked earnestly,
patiently and devotedly for the up
building of the St. Stephens mission
in Stoughton. and has we'll earned the
warm place he holds in the heart OF
every member of his little flock. Others
of our citizens, not bound to him by
ties of church, but who have met him
day by day as fellow townsman,
neighbor and friend. feel that they, too,
can testify to his sterling worth as a
man among men, and cannot but have
a sense of deep personal loss in bis de-
parture Both Mr.. Foster and his ef-
Unable mother will be missed in
church, social and literary circles in
Stoughton. We congratulate st. Paul's
parish in particular, and the good peo
pie of WATERFOWL in general. upor
their good fortune.
