Arrangements for the annua! society supper
by the Ladies' Guild of the Congregational
church for Thursday evening are complete, and
the affair has taken on the real hospitable air
which makes city folk wish they were in the
country for some good old-fashioned winter
festivity of this nature. The townspeople
seem keen for the..affair, and have given, with
unusual generosity and willingness, their
donations of choice things to eat. 1t is ex-
pected that aiparty will come over from Stock
ton, and.tthat at least one, and more likely
more, will be made up from Belfast. The COM
mittee, consisting of Mrs. Ross, Mrs Nichols,
Mrs Mckinney and Mrs. Clara Carver are
having the following ladies of the parish as
sist, by presiding over the various tables at
the supper: Mrs. VIM. M. Parse Mrs. Fred B.
Smith, Mrs. William E. Grinnell, Mrs. George
Bowen, Mrs. Lombard, Miss Fannie Smith,
Mrs. J. F. Wheaton, Mrs. Laura Closson, Mrs.
David Nichols, Mrs. Henrietta Young, Mrs
John Davis, Mrs. F. A. Nye, Mrs. Fred Swift,
Mrs. Henry Curtis, Mrs. Lincoln Colcord Mrs.
Carroll Whittier, Mrs. Angie Carver, Mrs.
Harry Merithew, Mrs. Josephine Weber and
Miss Jessie Nckerson. Miss Florence Colcord
is to have charge of the ushering, assisted by
Miss Guida1 Homer. The decorative scheme
carried out in. the supper room is to be of
patriotic nature, the affair coming between
Lincoln and Washington birthdays, and is
in the hands .of Mrs. Nathan Gilkey. The
solicitation of the numerous articles of
food for affair of this size is no small task
and the following willing workers really de-
serve special recognition: Mrs. Carroll Whit
tier, Misss Harriette Weber, Miss Vida Thomp-
son and Miss Elizabeth Nichols. The amateur
dramatcs for the evening entertainment are
being vigorously rehearsed, and the comedy
"A Regiment of Two" will no doubt prove an
amusing entertainment. Should the weather
prove to be unusually severe the whole affair
will be postponed until the following night.
