.S0UTHSIDE SCHOOL
LEAGUE MEETING,
Mrs. penbo Appointed Deleqate to
School League Convention to Be
Held in Alexandria.
MEETINGS WILL. pE HELD HERE.
.AFTEE AT MUSIC HALL.
Membership Increased from as to 11s
Points Made by Companies in
Contest

A very pleasant meeting of the
II id School Improvement
League was he'd Friday afternoon
at the home of Mrs. Sidney Mouton.
! After the president called the meet.
| ing to order, Supt. Wright made a
very appropriate talk on league work
and also extended an invitation
| through Miss Agnes Morris for the
League to send delegate to Alexan-
dria in December to attend the State
convention of School Leagues.
The League selected Mrs. A. B.
Denbo as delegate and Mrs. Joe Mou-
ton as alternate. Aftera gooddeal of
business was transacted the subject
OF accepting DR.. Moss kind offer of
Music hall as the place of holding the
monthly meetings was discussed. and
the members decided to accept the
offer as the attendance of the League
has gotten SO large that the homes
OF the members are not quite large
enough, Music Hall being centrally
located and a most desirable place.
The monthly meetings of the South.
side School League will therefore be
held the second Friday in each month
at four o'clock in Music Hall.
AS a proof that the ''six months
contest" is arOusing great deal of
enthusiasm. and causing the leaguers
to work for new members, the en-
rOllment has increased from forty
five members to 115 Fourteen new
members were added at this meeting.
Just before the league adjourned the
following report was given in regard
to the points of the six months con-
test made for October.
Company A, Mrs Denbo, captain,
246 points and four new members;
Company B, Mrs. F. V. Mouton, cap

Fair for coIored Church.


The fair for the benefit of the col:
ored Catholic church. which was held
at Glenn Oak Park Saturday and Sun
day, was quite success and realized
a handsome sum. Father Placidus
who was the main orator Of the fair,
was greatly pleased with results, and
was the main originator of the fair,
so were all who worked for the fair.
There was general evidence of vim
and determination to carry the pro-
ject for a colored Catholic church to
completion, and all seemed to be very
well satisfied with the success of the
fair and the enthusiasm displayed in
the cause.
