Annual Parish Meeting and Election
Of First Baptist Church.

The first Military whist of the sea-
son was held in the Armory Wednes-
day evening and proved to be a most
brilliant beginning, which it would
seem could not be surpassed by any
similar events which may follow dur
ing the winter.
For the benefit of the Board of
Trade was the watchword of those
who had the event in charge, and the
members of the Mothers Club, of
which Mrs. William CHM is president.
and the Clothing Club, of which Mrs.
Charles f. Swift Is president, labored
hard to score the success which was
achieved. Mrs. Julia Wiltshire Of 40
Pleasant street was the commander
in-chef Of the occasion and all the
operations we're directed in style
that was truly military.
The decorations of the Armory were
very beautiful and in strict accord
ance with the purpose and significance
of the gathering. Among those who
participated were many who have had
previous experience in military affairs,
and it greatly facilitated the progress
