Written for the Enterprise
Six years ago ten small girls
formed themselves into a sewing
circle, which was shortly after
ward christened The Thimble
Club, having for its objects, the
cultivation Of industry and socia-
bility. Many happy hours have
they since passed during their
Saturday afternoon meetings and
upon certain high days and holt
days, when their friends have
been called in to help them make
merry. so that in these days the
Thimble Club has spelled out the
magic letters which stand for "a
jolly good time" The little girls
are big girls now. No longer are
dolls and doll clothes the topic OF
conversation during the working
hour, nor do these big girls en-
gage in the game Of hide-and-seek
which the little girls once found
so enjoyable, after the sewing
was over. Changes have come;
perhaps, they have lost some OF the
charms Of childhood, but their adj
miring friends are of the opinion
that they have developed all the
charms possible to sweet young
gilhood. With the exception OF
one of the members who has late
ly made her home in another city,
the little band is the same OF the
old days, still devoted to one
another and proud of its little
Club. Last Friday night these
Young folks entertained at a
dance to honor their first grad
yates. Misses Bessie Galliand and
Celeste Dimitry. The beautiful
aome of Miss Maud Estorge, one OF
the members, was thrown open for
The occasion and no more happy
memory was recorded for the
Thimble Club and their guests.
