The Club Supper.

The Skowhegan Woman's Club usually
INDUCES 10 a supper about this season Of
the year, when the members invite In
friends and have pleasant social time.
For the current year this event came off
at Hotel Coburn, Monday evening, the
Both utimo. The supper itself was not
an elaborate affair. 1t was not intended
to be such, but it was nice one. The
104 guests who partook thereof we're
served promptly and everything was in
the best of order and In excellent taste.
The postprandial entertainment for the
evening consisted of reeitatons of his
own poems by one of Names brightest
and most gifted poets, Maj. Holman 5.
Day of Lewiston; singing by Mrs. F. O.
Sawyer, with piano accompaniment by
Miss Berle Walton and violin selections by
A. J. Kendall, accompanied on the piano
by Miss Annie Allen.
Mrs. E. p. Page, president of the
Woman's Club, presided and gracefully
introduced MIR. Day as one to whom
Maine people delight to listen and one
whom all present will be pleased to hear
Maj. Day gave four of his shorter
Maine poems entitled, "Dr. Purg Pluff, :"
John w. JONES'" "How Lish Played
OK" and "Elkara b. Atkinson 1t was
Mr.. Days first appearance before a
Skowhegan audience yet few present
were not familiar with his writings, and,
Judging from appearances, all were de-
lighted with his recitation of his own
poems. He was happy in his selections,
was cordially received and warmly APP
plauded.
Mrs. Sawyer's singing was as it always
is, highly pleasing to Skowhegan audi
tors. Her selection was song "Dawn Of
Hope" by Krogman, and she responded
to recall with, beautiful Land of
Dreams" by A. Gertrude Clark. The
instrumental music WAS of high order
and artistically rendered.
The ladies of the club are entitled to
thanks of invited guests for very en-
joyable evening. 1t is way they have
of comforting happiness upon friends.

endeavor in the right direction,
even when followed by apparent
failure, is the next best thing to
success, for it affords a security
