Pleasurable. indeed was the meet
ing of young" people held at the
First PRESBYTERIAN church last night.
What mattered it if several of the
Youngest present wore gray hair
the assem- bIage was as carefully
planned, and as delicately carried out
to a successful end as would have
been possible had it been supervised
by the youngest set of the congre-
cation.

a bower of roses Upon a table at
one end was huge cake. upon which
% candles sputtered merrily. and
gathered about the room were some
zoe of the older members of the
church.
Mrs. J. NJ. Studebaker. ST, maker
of the cake was the first 10 address
the guests. She congratulated the pas
tor and his wife upon the event be-
ing celebrated. and presented them
with the cake and all II contained.
