A GentIemen.s Social.

At business meeting OF the Ladies' Aid
society of the Cong'l church, the idea was
advanced of having the gentlemen con-
duct an entertainment and supper. Many
doubts arose, but after much laughter and
discussion they proceeded to appoint the
various committees and sent out the invi-
tations to the same.
Much to their surprise, the gentlemen
readily and cheerfullY accepted the favors.
and proceeded to make the necessary ar
rangements in prompt and business like
manner, proving to the ladies that they
were equal to the occasion. But they said,
''Of course we shall be invited to do the
cooking" To their utter amazement and
disappointment (2), neither their services
nor advice were solicited.
The date fixed for the supper wa.
Wednesday evening, Feb. 10, and despite
the severe cold weather a large company
principally ladies) assembled al Steele
chapel, where they were met by the recep.
ton committee and conducted to the hal
above Here they were pleasantly enter
tanned for about an hour by a varied pro.
gram, consisting of music by the Sharon
Cornet band, songs, recitations, readings
humorous remarks and several selection
from the zonophone, all given by the mall
sex.
1 Then came the supper. The tables wer
neatly and tastefully laid and were ladeI
with good things steaming hot oysters
crackers. rolls, butter, Washington pie
/ jelly roll, walnut and chocolate cake
| pickles, coffee, apples, oranges, grapes and
nuts. The guests were served in an up-to
date manner by white diverted walters. A
proof Of the quality of the supper was at.
tested in the eating and the complimentary
remarks heard on every hand. The pastry
was procured from +. ID. Ladd's bakery al
Barre, who being Sharon lad (d) and q
member of this church took especial in
terest and pains in the order.
The Sharon ladies have long been COM
plimented on their excellent suppers, but
henceforth they must share their honors
with the gentlemen.
The net proceeds of the evening amount
ed to little over $40. Everyone seemed in
good humor. which helped to enliven the
occasion, and it will long be remembered
in the annals OF the society as the social
hit of the season.
