pleasant and profitable one. The
large crowd which attended seemed TO
enjoy to the Utmost the elegant dinner
served under the direction OF Mrs. Ed
wards Every phase OF the missionary
work was presented and this, inter-
spersed with delightful music and
readings. left not a dull moment in the
whole day. A generous offering was
made to the girls school at Rio De
Janeiro, Brazil. II was also decided to
send a Christmas box OF four dozen
dolls to the little Indian children in
the mission at Fort Scott. Mrs. Herp-
don presided in her usual delightful
manner. Each one who assisted did
credit to the work. Especially helpful
were the devotionals conducted by
Mesdames Ellis and Bridges. Several
visitors we're present and a number en-.
rolled as members before the service
closed.
