Menerey's Corners.

Fogelsonger treats the Menerey
Corners Oysterers to another pleasant
evening. The club met at Lucien
FogelsOngers last Wednesday evening
for, as most supposed, the last meeting,
but Mr.. Henry Johnson and family
have decided to give a supper in honor
of the club. Mr.. Secord's talk this
time has a new subject "Oyster Dig
ging" instead of well digging as of old
the latter subject he claims is going
out of date. Port Huron and Capac
gentlemen were again present, and
either raised their opinions of Corners
styles, or had the good grace to say
nothing. Many interesting games
were enjoyed while the hostess and
others prepared supper. AS usual our
young people favored us with music
and we are pleased to report that they
agreed much better as TO what they
should sing. Two of the company
were lucky enough to have new song
books, from which no one but the
talented singers, the Capac gentleman
and one young lady, could possibly
have read the music. All were interest
ed in a massive key and learned 1t had
been used in the hall door of the
FogelsOnger residence while living at
Disco, Mich. Mrs. Thompson was as
solicitous as ever to the young ladies.
She served lunch up to one of them
long before supper was announced
which aroused the jealousy of all the
others. All were much pleased to have
again present the full chorus of the
Double Harness" Mr.. and Mrs. Bert
Walker have been unable to be present
lately on account or the serious illness
of Mrs. Walker, ST., whom all will be
pleased to hear is slowly recovering.
We regret that Mr.. and Mrs. Turner
were called TO Canada to attend the
funeral of a relative, thus were unable
to be present among our number.
Partners to supper were secured in the
usual way but some say that there was
scheming. Mrs. Thompson and Mrs.
Foglesonger are SO very dignitied of
late that they think the floor is a high
enough place from which to look down
upon the rest of the company. John
Turner is still a lucky man. He sue
ceeded in drawing for a partner Elva
Fogelsonger, daughter of the host and
hostess, who has not before been pre-
sent as she has been visiting at Disco,
Henry Johnston secured Bert Walker
as his partner and Mr., Secprd's happy
face was seen next to Mrs, Walker
while Mr., FQglesonger was the happy
man to escort Mrs, Secord. Robert
Thompson stretched to twice his
normal stature at the side of the hos
tess. Bruce Menerey was radiant in
the thought that he had partner who
would let him eat as many oysters and
as much fruit cake as he chose. Miss
Florence Johnston was escorted by
William Morgan. Mr.. Thompson is
just as good at Dragging about the ap,
pearance of his partner as eV0E If it
were not for seeming to flatter Mrs. b..
Menerey, his partner, we might repeat
what he said this time. 1t was scarcely
possible though to notice what he said
in the excitement Of watching the
oysters disappear. The CHESTS from
Port Huron and Capac secured Iva
Secord and Naomi RtnWn as partners.
All declaye they enjoyed the evening
Most fluffy and thank Mr.. and Mrs.
Fogelsohger fora very pleasant time
which will long have a place in their
memories.
