Floral grange after an extended vaca-

and resumed work apparently with re-
newed interest.
Sept. a session was held in which the
ladies filed the chairs. After the opening
exercises, the gentlemen retired to the
kitchen and shortly ter all were invited
into the dining hall and delicious sup
per was served by the gentlemen. Not
only the supper, but the manner in which
it was served, was beyond criticism. The
worthy master was provided with an
apron, that in size should secure him sue
cess as chef. Supper began with baked
beans with all the usual adjuncts, and
pies and cakes galore.
After supper the ladies were relegated
to the hall while the cooks washed the
dishes. How many were broken in the
process will never be known. A program
of unusual merit followed, made up of
songs, readings, recitals and charades.
Question for next session, ''Does it pay
to raise pork at the present price of
grain?" Samuel s. Rich will open the
question.
