There was not a large attendance at the
w. c. T. U. social at Mr.. Reyes, but
those who attended felt well paid in the
pleasant interview with the family and
each other and a delightful moonlight

culinary art as the ladies. Mr.. Keyes'
mother, Mrs. Jane Keyes, ninety-six years
old, was present and took part in the
exercises, responding to her name in the
roll call with passage of scripture and
sang hymn. 1t is an inspiration to meet
this aged lady and hear her tell of Gods
goodness and how precious the Savior is
to her waiting soul. May she round out
a century of years, a blessing to those
around her.
