Miss Winnie Full arrived home from
Winnipeg to spend Easter.
Atty. Condo of Winnipeg was visiting
with Rev. and Mrs. Campbell this week.
Marjorie Wardwell had young PEG.
pies party last week and about twenty.
five were present.
Mrs. Halfpenny,. of Winnipeg was
visiting her friend, Miss Muriel Full the
first of the week.
Miss Gertie Hall, daughter of Rev.
Hall, of Hallock has been visiting at
Switzer's this week.
j. T. Cockburn of Drayton came from
Drayton and ate Easter dinner with the
Wardwells, between trains.
We are glad to report that Katie
King who was taken with pneumonia
last week is improving quite rapidly.
The Easter services at the churches
were we'll attended and in most cases
there was an extra musical program.
Easter week has been and is some
what strenuous in social circles and
partly Tapped over to before the Lenten
season had closed.
The mothers will be glad to have
school begin next Monday. 1t will tend
to keep the kids feet dry-and have less
colds and sore Threats.
Mrs. F. G. Myrick had one of her
pleasant parties on Saturday evening
where everything was as enjoyable as
usual, as it always is there.
Tonight the Ladies of the r. c..
church give social with refreshments
and program. They don't come often
and deserve good patronage.
Mrs. F. A. Wardwell entertained a
few friends on Saturday evening in
honor of Mrs. j. II. Cockburn who
spent the week at the parental home.
There was remarkable shortage in
the showing of new Easter millinery at
the churches on Sunday. Easter hats
were not in evidence to any extent.
Guess the ladies were waiting for the
weather to moderate.
The social and entertainment of the
Presbyterian Ladies Aid on Tuesday
evening was very successful in atten-
dance and pleasure. The supper as
usual was of the very best and short
but good program followed. The pro-
ceeds were S65.
Among ''the student body who have
been with us this week are Rose and
Eddie Conmy, Pauline Kneeshaw, Luz
ellie Switzer, Winnie Full, and Guy Nc
Kay. These return after pleasant visits
with the old folks for next weeks work
in school.
The collection at the N. E. Sunday
school on Easter amounted to over ST..
Considerable of this money was the
direct earnings of the pupils for this
purpose. One class of boys shoveled
snow, another class made and sold
candy, another held social, etc.
The University Glee Club which ap-
peared at the city hall on Thursday of
last week gave very pleasant and sat
isfactory entertainment. There were
sixteen voices and they were we'll bal
anced and gave evidence of good train
ing. Prof. Stout the leader, is an ex-
cellent violinist and his solo work on
that instrument was greatly appreciated.
Mrs. Stout, who accompanied, is very
fine pianist and her solo numbers were
encored with enthusiasm. Socially the
students and professors were very pleas
ant persons and our citizens were glad
to renew and make acquaintance with
them, and would be very glad to have
them return at any time either collec-
lively OF individually. The audience
was only fair in numbers and should
have been better, but the Easter time
made many busy with other matters.
The club went to Winnipeg from here
where we learn they had good house
and an appreciative audience.
