sided. Reports were read from the

The social functions at the church

bic furnishings. -"

Another step taken and one that
will probably be greeted with cheers
from the members of the Mems
League was that the women of the So
ciety should volunteer to prepare the
supper given by the Mems League. 1t
seems that the caterers have not been
able to please the men and as an ex-
pertinent the women will prepare the
coming suppers. =. !. =. T.. IL.
