known as "children's night" and was
arranged and brought TO most sue
cessful and happy consummation,
through the untiring labors of Mrs.
S. A. McFadden to whom the credit
is due for the splendid success of the
affair.
While the old folks were in attend

joyment and that the object for which
the affairs was given was fully realized |
is not questioned.
