The Epworth League kid Party"
at the Ben Arney home on last
Thursday evening proved as thor
oughly enjoyable as it was novel
Nearly all the ladies were attired in
kid outfits, but some of the young
men were not quite so courageous as
were the ladies, nevertheless John
Powers in knickerbockers, blouse
and Fauntleroy collar, caused peals
of laughter at every move he made,
and well deserved the prize, an "All
Day Sucker. with which he was
quite generous. Miss Barthel in her
little pink dress, and long curls, was
a truly cute little girl, as were a
number of others among whom were
Mrs. Baker, Miss Teskey, Mile
Drum, Helen Richardson, Dorothy
Schuetz, Adele and Mayme Hickey,
Adela Fosse, Ada Griffith. Ruth and
Leda Jacobson, Marguerite and Es-

spending couple of hours playing

went home, laughing all the way,
over the many funny experiences of
the evening, and unanimously of the
opinion that kid parties are heaps
of fun"
