The ladies of the Union Presbyterian
church rendered a reception to their
new pastor, Rev. A.. c. HOgbin. and
wife, at the parsonage last evening,
and although many were prevented by
intensely d~isagreeable weather from
being present, the spacious rooms
We're filled throughout the entire even
ing with members of the church and
congregation and friends from other
churches, including Rev. and Mrs.
Kruger and Rev. Nice. The decora-
tions, which were executed under the
direction of a committee composed
of Mesdames DeForest, Knight and
PASCAL, were exquisite, the double par
lors being festooned with crepe paper
in pink and green, pink asters and smi-
lax being also artistically employed.
The dining room was aglOw with white
and gold, and vases of vivid bloom
adorned the tables. Madame Preston
greeted the guests at the door. and
Prof. and Mrs. Knight assisted Rev.
and and Mrs. Hogbin in receiving.
Misses Lizzie DeForest and Edna Boyd
were the efficient little ushers. Misses
Helen Symons. Ruth Garlock. Annie
Reid. Bessie Pascal and Emma Eggles-

the refreshments. The reception was
characterized by the entire absence of
informally or stiffness. and the gentle
men made themselves at home in Rev.
Hogbin's delightfully."- cosy study up
stairs, while young and old filled all
the rest of the parsonage. Mrs. Mary
Gates Garlock. and Messrs. Lynch and
Schrock contributed largely to the ev-
ening's pleasure by the rendition of
several vocal numbers from time to
time. Very few of those present knew
before their arrival that they were to
celebrate the 25th anniversary of the
marriage of their pastor and his wife.
