The chicken pie supper given last week
by the Ladies' society of the Congrega-
tional church VAS a successful affair, net
ting about so. The entertainment was
u Unusually good. A very interesting paper
written by Miss Elvins Dsggett several
years ago was read by Mrs. Thrssher,
reminding us of the many good things
done by the society in the past. 10 young
ladies representing the 10 virgins who
went forth to meet the bridegroom, the
five wise ones with their lamps all trimmed
and burning, the foolish ones just little
too late, made pleasing feature of the en-
tertai1ment. The male quartette cheered
the audience with lively, catchy songs, and
was heartily cheered in return. select
reading by Geo. Ware and an original
poem by Mrs. Vance made up a most
excellent program.
