ANNUAL FAIR AND SALE.
Ladies' of st. Johns Church Net with
Excellent Success.

The ladies OF ST. Johns Episcopal
church held their annual fair on Sat
urday afternoon and evening at Elks'
hall. The affair was under the man
agement of the two church guilds
and was called 1.-THE Bazaar of the
-Four Seasons, the hall and booths
being appropriately and beautifully
decorated to carry out the idea.
Spring was represented by the
Japanese booth, which was an artistic
little tea house pergola, covered with
cherry blossoms and decorated with
souvenirs from far off Japan. 1t was
here that dainty maidens, clad in
oriental costumes, served tea to their
numerous customers during the en-
tire afternoon and evening.
The summer booth was covered
with long sprays of roses and vines
and was very attractive. The ladies
i'm this booth were attired in light
summer robes of the season and sold
the fancy work of the bazaar.
Autumn was represented by the
delicatessen both and was decorated
with autumn leaves, grapes, etc.
This proved TO be most popular at
traction and attendants and chefs
were kept busy selling plum pud-
dings. fruit cakes, pies and numer-
Gus other good things prepared by the
ladies.
The winter booth was picturesque
with it's poinSettaS, eveTgreenS, vines
and holly. Here the ladies were at
tired in red sweaters and caps and
sold the warm and comfortable
articles.
The apron booth was very attract
| i've with its bright decorations of sun
flowers, while the doll booth trimmed
with beautiful morning glories re-
ceived large amount of patronage.
| The ice cream booth was also an at
| tractive feature of the afternoon.
At five O'Clock New England sup
per was served. The dining room
was appropriately decorated, and the
mattresses dressed in costumes charac-
teristic of the supper. Later in the
] evening, dancing was enjoyed by the
| young people.
