The Fulton Ladies Shakespeare Club
very delightfully."- entertained few of
their lady and gentlemen friends at the
home of Misses Marion Barber and Mel
lie Bentley, on Tuesday evening. d f
Sayre, Sr, gave very able paper on the
life of VIM Shakespeare. Music was
rendered by Harriet Lee and Nellie
Bentley. A toast was given to the men
by the hostess in substance that "the la
dies should love, honor and obey their
husbands" This toast was very fully
responded to by Rev A A Wood who
said, that if this sentiment of 'obeying
your husbands was being installed into
into their wives at the club, he for one
was with the ladies heart and hand, but
that this honoring and obeying your
husbands must have just been taken up
by the club as he had not noticed any
marked change in his better half who is
a prominent member of the club" A
toast was then rendered the ladies which
was replied to by Supt Hemingway in
his pleasing way. Dainty refreshments
were then served by the ladies and
souvenir quotation was laid at each plate,
one of which was, LAS the walled town
is more worthier than village, so is the
forehead of married man more honor
able than the bare brow of bachelor"
which goes to show that no matter how
exclusive the ladies club may be- man is
the predominating element in their
minds. All who were privileged to be
there went home feeling they had spent
a most enjoyable evening, and we men
heartily second vote of thanks to the
club and hope it may long live, and
