DELEGATES TO THE CONVENTION

The Catholic Ladies' Aid Society is about
to hold it's ninth annual convention, and,
as new questions are to be met on this
occasion, considerable speculation is going
on as to what may be the outcome of the
convention.
Members of the society are congratulate
ing themselves over a good years work,
all in the cause of charity, and the results
so far accomplished have imbued the
charitable ladies with enthusiasm for more
extended endeavors on behalf of those
needing assistance. Another reason is
given for the self-satIsfaction entertained
by the more active members, and it is
this-the Hotel del Mar, which is owned
and conducted by the society at beautiful
