The Boys Club OF Hoult was dis.
olved by mutual consent and agree
ment. 1t was decided to hold a social
Saturday evening at which refresh.
ments will be sold to raise money for
seats In the park after which the Of
fects OF the club will be sold and the
business closed up. After purchasing
seats for the park the balance OF nc.
ney In the treasury will be donated
to the M. L. church to be divided equal
ly between the Sunday school and the
Epworth League. The Boys Club Of
Hoult was organized In April, 1915, by
workers of the Epworth League as a
means OF social enjoyment and recre-
alton to the boys. 1t had a ritual and
iniation fee and dues for baseball
teams, croquet grounds, indoor games
for winter. striking bag, horizontal
bar. ETC., and was very successful dur.
ing 1915. Its demise vas caused part
ly by a lack Of interest this summer on
the part Of the boys but largely by the
fact that the most active members are
working on night shifts at the round
house, carshops and glass houses and
therefore cannot spend their evenings
at the club. Tho experiment was not
wholly a failure as 1t is undoubtedly a
good thing wherever 1t has executive
ability to carry the idea out.
On next Sunday night, July 30, the
Epworth League will render a special
program as follows: Leader, Mrs.
Nellie Harr. Topic: Is 1t easier to be
a foreign volunteer than a home stand.
