M. z. Ladies, Sale.

The Town hall presented a very attrac-
tive appearance, Wednesday, Dec. 8,
when the ladies OF the M. r.. church held
their sale. The booth for articles in
fancy work directly IN front OF the stage
was made with a pointed roof effect and
trimmed with hundreds OF large yellow
chrysanthemums, the frame being entire
ly covered and festoons across the front
Of the long table. AT right angles on the
right OF this was the booth for kitchen
furnishings, etc, trimmed in red and
white on a very dainty frame and beyond
that q similar booth trimmed In green
and yellow where food In great variety
Was speedily disposed of and ice cream
served in the evening.
At the left OF the fancy goods booth
was the homemade candy booth with
high-peaked roof, covered and draped
with lace curtains held in place with pink
roses, and beyond this, the vegetable
booth, by no means the least. attractive,
trimmed in royal purple and white.
Evergreen trees were placed between the
booths, making the place look like fairy
woodland bower.
The tables were all well loaded with
dainty useful and sweet goods which
mostly disappeared during the afternoon
and evening, netting a goodly sum OF
money to the ladies in charge. When
the few articles remaining are disposed OF
the net proceeds OF the sale will be about
s7O.
Thanks are due to the many friends
who contributed articles and also to those
who so literally patronized the sale.
