terrain church. met yesterday after
noon at the church. Mrs. Z. B. Gros-
venor told an original story in very
pleasing manner. Mrs. Hastings gave
talk on how an aid society should
be managed. She said in part that as
a club member is faithful to her club
so should the aid society member be
faithful to that organization. Too
many members think it is only an aid
society meeting and their attendance
is not needed She said that was why
so many societies did not prosper.
The remaining hours were spent at
needlework.
