3 The supper served by the men Fri
day evening was in every sense of the
word a magnificent success. AS fine
bunch of men as can be found any
where donned aprons and worked
heroically in the kitchen while the
walters in their white jackets ably
and smilingly served>the throngs who
came to be served. and we have yet
20 hear of one Who failed to enjoy
the excellent supper provided, to-
gether with the delightful music and
good cheer which accompanied them
=, throughout the evening.
Mr.. Barlow, who was chairman of
the committee of arrangement de-
serves much credit for his faithful
service and wise planning for this
supper which realized over $40 which
amount will be used in paying for
the added supply of church hymnals
and song books and new book racks
which are to be PLACED in the pews.
The Easter programs Sunday morn
ing and evening were enjoyed by large
audiences. The beautiful Easter an
themns so ably rendered by the dou-
bic quartet choir in the morning and
by the male quartet in the evening
were very appropriate and most
were very appropriate and most
thoroughly enjoyed. The younger
members of the Sunday school con-
tributed to the morning program and
were just as sweet and lovely as the
little folks always are in their speak
ing and singing.
The evening program was given by
the young people assisted by the
choir, and on all sides we hear such
appreciative words of commentator
as 1T was beautiful" "The finest
program ever given in this church"
Fine" ETC., all of which are certain
ly very gratifying to the committee
