MONDAY CLUBS
ANNUAL BANQUET

The Monday Club on Feb. 9Th held
its annual banquet at the home of
Mrs. Cunningham. One member Of
the executive committee, as she pre-
pared the program for the feast, de-
plored the long line of successful ban
quets given in the past because there
in the original ideas of the club were
doubtless exhausted. This fear was
groundless for never before was the
wit of the club more brilliant.
The place cards we're pictures rep
resenting in rebus the names of pop
ular magazines. Scattered about were
brain-testing conundrums and a vari-
ETY. of guessing contests were ready.
After listening to messages from the
Misses Snyder and Miss Roe and from
Mrs. Edward Orvis and to word Of
greeting from Mrs. f. C. Perkins, the
club undertook "spring planting"

following seasonable statemnt: "If
you plant water-pipes you may raise
leeks (leaks)." Mrs. Wyman follow
ed with very appropriate reading.
Miss Garfield conducted next an auto
matte, self-registering, anonymous
who's who in the Monday Club"
Another bit Of arduous guess work
was the filling in Of stories written by
Mrs. Robbins with the names of cakes
and cooking utensils, piece Of work
calculated TO enlarge the knowledge Of

Raymond, of Rutland, figured in an
serious coasting accident
when his sled collided with a heavily
loaded sleigh and he suffered frac-

then told a delightful story in Italian
American, finally producing the hero
in proper person. Mrs. Lawrence read
an original poem. The mirth was then
so uproarious that Mrs. Rastall rose
and announced that she thought the
club ought to be serious for few
moments while she preached a sermon.
Her text was the familiar rhyme
Old Mother Hubbard
She went to the Cupboard
To get her poor dog a bone.
The discourse was exhaustive in ex-
egesis, contained certain practical APP
plications and occasional critical COM
ments, and was received by the sis
ters present with flattering attention,
but no seriousness other than tears Of
laughter. Mrs. Munron next passed
around old portraits Of club members
past and present. Much to everyone's
amusement not half Of them were
guessed correctly.
Amid the usual wishes for long life
to the club and regret that many hon
orary and some active members were
unable to be present, the following
ladies said goodbye to Mrs. Cunning
ham and her granddaughter: Mrs. Mum
son, Mrs. Robbins, Miss Garfield, Mrs.
Lawrence, Mrs. Towsley, Mrs. Rastall,
Mrs. Wyman, Mrs. S. X. Perkins, Mrs.
Walter Hard, Mrs. Kennard, Miss
Orvis.
Much of the success of the affair
was due to the hostess and to the effic-
lent management of F. C. Williams, to
whom written vote of thanks, signed
by all present, was presented.
The menu was as follows:

Chicken Pie Baken Ham
