RECEPTION AND SOCIAL
The popularity of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Glib requires no special demonstration
by way OF proof; but IL IT did, the de-
monstraton of last Tuesday evening,
when their friends and neghbors from
all over the district gathered at the par
lors of the Foreign Church to bid them
God-speed, would have been sufficient TO
convince the most skeptical. The prom
inence of Mr.. and Mrs. Glib in church
work made this place of gathering es-
pecially fitting. while 1t did not prevent
Ehe attendance of many who have never
worn any hollows in the church pews
through assduous devotion, but who de-
sired just as strongly to show their re
gard for the many noble qualities of the
guests of honor

Jules Richardson, Mrs. Terry, Rev. j.

The handsomely decorated church par

one considers as the inevitable attend
ant of reception; for everybody was
there for a good time and to help every
body else have the same. During the
evening, musical selections, vocal and
instrumental. were rendered by Mrs j.
Il. Lewis. Miss Potter. Professor Heidi
man and others, and the latter portion
OF the evening was rendered still more
pleasant by the choice menu of eatabes
provided by the ladies of the church. and
which threw all previous efforts of the
sort into the shade, If not into oblivion.
Rev j. A Cruzan spoke a few words
very happily upon the departure Of Mr.
and Mrs. Glib, and the loss which that t
departure would entail upon the COM
munity, while he found some comfort
in the fact that they We're not to leave
the Island altogether. Mr. Glib respond c
