Thursday evening, January Il, was
gala night at Wesserrunsett Grange
in Cornville. The occasion was OF
double interest as the annual installa-
ton of officers took place, also the en-
tertainment of the East Madison
Grange who were invited guests for
the evening. Everything was favor
able for a pleasant evening, the fine
moonlit skies and excellent sleighing
gave a full attendance of members of
both Oranges as we'll as large num-
Der of friends not yet members of the
order. The officers were installed by
w. B. Whittier, Master of Somerset
Pomona, in his usual happy manner
ably assisted by Mr.. and Mrs. E. j.
Kimball of Skowhegan Grange who
are always welcome visitors. After
the installation of officers a fine pro
gram was presented by the Worthy
Lecturer, Carrie l.. French, as fol-
lows: Song, choir; reading, l.. l..

taken and all enjoyed hearty laugh
at the trials of the housekeeper. Clos
ing song by choir.
At the close of the entertainment all
went to the dining hall where one of
the suppers for which Wesserrunsett
Grange is famous was served. About
140 took supper and still there was
plenty for more. The Grange Is moth
ing if not hospitable. After supper
some time was spent in playing games
and in social chat and at late hour
the visitors took their departure
promising to come again in the near
future. The newly installed officers
are full of courage and are sready to
labor in the vineyard and we hope
for a large increase of members in
the coming year.
Fred Mcclure was elected secretary
and installed in the place made va
cant by the resignation of Della Nc
Daniels which was accepted with re-
greet. Miss McDaniels has left town
for an indefinite period and will GER
