Sunday Dinner Market.

This seemed such a capital idea for
making money that | give the outline,
hoping some Ladies' Aid" or guild
VIII be benefited thereby. The
scheme was carried out in a suburb
and the sales lasted every Saturday
during the month OF August. Booths
were erected upon the lawn and the
committees were formed by taking
the names alphabetically. Sal.
ads, cold meats. rolls, bread, cakes,
cookies. jams and jellies, mayon.
