ANNUAL BANQUET

Through an inadvertence not
intentional the write-up of the an
niversary banquet given by the
Methodist Episcopal people last
week did not appear in our col
umns.
1t comes to our readers this
week with an apology for the
seeming neglect.
The occasion of the banquet
was to commemorate the third an
niversary of the dedication of the
new Methodist Episcopal church
building. The event has become
an annual one and is much looked
forward to. A feast for the inner
man and an after-dinner program
of toasts, speeches and music, CIV
en- by both outside and local talent
fills a profitable and pleasurable
evening.
On this third anniversary a de-
licious chicken dinner, with all it's
accompaniments was served to
about 175 people in the spacious
diningroom of the church. The
tables were nicely decorated and
everything looked a CHEEKY well
come, with orchestra music ad-
ding to its charm.
Following the banquet, Rev.
Mumby, in a genial, whole souled
manner, filled the position of toast
master, introducing the speakers.
n. j. Drouyor, superintendent
of Yale schools spoke interesting
ly and seriously along the lines of
the industrial conditions of the
country with it's problems and
perplexities.
James H. Moore gave a clear and
concise history of the church.
Lawrence j. Menerey spoke on
the lure of the home town and
none could speak with more truth
than one in the late service Of his
country.
Revs. Martin and Marion, of the
Presbyterian and Church of Christ
pulpits were called upon for vol
unteer talks and did their share
for the program.
The music consisted of a fine
anthem by the choir and solos rem
dered by Mrs. Clyde Cochrane of
Port Huron, the latter being such
favorite in Yale that she got off
with no less than four songs.
The evening was brought to a
fitting close by the united singing
of America"

A Musical Treat

The musical number given in
the school auditorium on Wednes-
day afternoon was thoroughly en-
joyed and largely appreciated by
many ladies and the high school
grades.
Coming to Yale in order to
create an interest in the organiza-
ton of a musical club, Mrs. Otta-
way, vice-president of the Federal
ed Music Club of Michigan, gave
literally of her own splendid tai
ent as a pianist and also brought
with her Mrs. Harrington, who is
an artist on the violin, and Miss
Mary Sumner, one of Port Hur-
on's best singers.
The program was indeed treat
and it is hoped will be an inspira-
tion towards the forming of
musical society. A meeting will
soon be called for this purpose.
Mrs. Ottaway gave a brief talk
along the line, explaining the
meaning and the need and the
good of music and the help it
brings to all who make a study
of it.

A Night With Jack Frost
1t was late October; the air was
sharp and clear; Jack Frost crept
stealthily from his summer hiding
place and smiled grimly as he
thought of the mischief he was
about to do.
He drew his chilly coat of ice
about his thin form and was soon
carried away over fields and
thrown on the wings of his great
est pal, the North Wind. Laughing
merrily he blew his frosty breath
over the large corn fields, which
were the pride of old Farmer
Brown; over widow Jones choice
tomato plants and touched light
ly with his finger tips Minister
Gray's beloved geraniums, and he
grinned with glee as he thought of
their dismay on the morrow.
What shall / do now, old man."
he asked of his chum.
'Oh, do something for change"
scolded the gruff old wind, for he
was rather out of patience with
his playful pal.
81 know; I'll paint with my
brush some wonderful pictures on
every pane | blow against. That
will delight the children for they
love my drawings of castles and
fairy pictures. | think the chill
drn like me better than the old
folks, don't you ?"
And so all through the night he
breezed gaily along by the side of
his true old pal, with the North
Wind whistling and singing his
chilly tunes.
