Methodist Receptions.

On Tuesday evening, at the home
of Mrs. Hughes, East Weiser, the
choir of the Methodist church ten
dered a farewell reception to Miss
Alba Converse, and on Thursday
evening at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
f. N. Carr, the Epworth League ten
dered reception to the same young
lady. Miss Converse has, during
her stay in Weiser, been an active
worker in the Methodist church,
teaching in the Sunday school and
singing in the choir, and the church
will'keenly feel the loss of one who
has been so faithful and active in
all its departments.
Both receptions were occasions of
social enjoyment, though tinged with
regret that Miss Converse is SO soon
to leave the city. All wish her sue
cess as she returns to her old home in
Ohio, and in these wishes the Signal
heartily joins.

church gets well rewarded for doing
so. About fifty years or so ago 1t struck
the Rev. Thomas Meyrick, who was
then vicar Of the parish, that the young
ladies there did not attend church 80
often as they might do. So he left a
sum of money, and this, according to
the terms of his will, was to be put out
at interest The annual income from
1t was to be given each year to the
prettiest young woman at Noteworthy
