Royal Neighbors Entertainment

The Royal Neighb ors met in their
hall last Friday night as usual.
But the entertainment and banquet
that followed were unusual:
A committee is appointed by the
V. 0. to entertain each month. Mrs.
b. Austin was chairman Of the com
mittee for the present month.
At the close Of the meeting the
chairman requested that all mem
bers remain seated. AS this was
just after st. Valentines day, every
act of the committee was suggestive
Of the good old st. A guessing
contest was first on the pro
gramme; a half pint bottle of small
white beans was passed for inspec-
ton the members to guess the
number of beans contained in the
bottle. Paper hearts were passed on
which to put name, and number
guessed. Miss Mary King guessed
the correct number, 347 After
this came readings by Miss Mabel
Austin and Mrs. Block, followed by
a song by Miss Flossie Bidwell, and
piano solos by Miss Birdie Galloway
these were all exceptionally good.
After this part of the programme
the tables four in number, that
would seat 16 persons at each, were
brought in, all decorated in Valen-
tine hearts, and flowers. They
looked more like visions of beauty
that might fade away than reality.
Each table also had a candelabora
with different colored candles in
the center and all lighted. The
menu was in correspondence with
the table and the whole was a COM
plete success in every particular.
The chairman thea passed to each
member a heart shaped card bear
ing number, with the request that
each remember the number as the
card. A chart on which Was out
lined man, with a heart (the size
Of those numbered,) on the center
of his breast was fastened to the
wall, each member was to be blind
folded, and then try and place the
numbered heart, on the one out
lined on the man. Mrs. Carrie
Walker got 1st prize in getting the
heart in the best position. A box
of candy hearts was the prize.
It was Q late hour when this
pleasant meeting broke up, and all
with one accord agreed that the
Royal Neighbors are the ones that
have the good times.

Glen Haven Literary Club.

The regular program Of the G. L.
E. n. Literary Club was held at the
Woodman hall IN Glen Haven Fri
day, Feb. 16, 1906, with the usual
fattering results. Mr.. Albert Kuen-
ster acted as temporary chairman.
Owing to the II. S. play in Cass
vile some Of the numbers were
omitted from the program, but
those rendered, only added to the
popular impression that some truly
talented members are aiding the
literary life of the village.
The society showed tits apprecia-
ton Of Mr.. Seipp's touch Of
Doublin's philosophy. Sons and
daughters Cf Erin readily recognized
the truth and quality of the wisdom
presented by brother philosopher.
On the debate were arrayed the
combined forces of the feminine
gender represented by Miss Mabel
Judd, Miss Anna Mueller and Miss
May Kidd, against the opposite sex
represented by Mr.. Gus Kuenster,
Mr.. w. GassOn and Mr.. Geo. Vogt.
Though the question was political
one Resolved that the U. S. was
wise in assuming control OF the
PHILIPPINES" and hampered as they
were by supporting an argument
contrary to the views OF the
administration, the petticOat ranks
proved without a question that the
masculine mind is too ponderous a
quantity to grapple with delicate
questions of craftsmanship. Inc
subtle art, quickne ss of thought and
perception and generalshlp OF the
ladies coupled with a diplomatic
appeal to the sympathies OF the
Judges won for them hearty ap-
plause and unanimous decision IN
their favor.
Something of the excitement OF
the Revolutionary period was
depicted very effectively by Miss
Grace Kaufman while Mr.. Roger
Winner addea a patriotic eulogy
upon our own peaceful village.
From the ranks Of the male
chorus were missing many mem
bers who are still absent on the
search for material to aid them IN
the struggle for the PHILIPPINES.
Miss Ethel Metcalf played the
piano accompaniment.
The program for Friday March 2,
besides the usual exhiliarating de-
bate presents several new features
and gives promise of an interesting
evening.

A Temperance Lecture.

Last Sunday the temperance lee
turer, Mrs. Richards of Ohio, gave
two very fine addresses at the
morning and evening services of the
M. E. church. A large audience was
present in the evening. She referred
particularly to the many young men
who were present. And one feels
sure the truth of her practical state
ments must set the voters to think
ing.
Mrs. Richards told how nobly
President Roosevelt is standing by
the grand organization of the
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union. The lady stated that she is
a subscriber to the Brewers Organ
and gets more material, in facts, for
her work than in the Union Signal
or Christian Advocate, and feels that
the money paid out for the sub
scriptiOn was a good investment.
The text for the morning service
was Nehemiah 3, and from reports
thinks there are Sanballats and
Tobiahs to be found in our own city.
But it is to be hoped that there are
to be found Nehemiahs strong
enough to refuse to come down TIC
them, while there is a great work tc
do.
