LET THE BOOK BE RETURNED.

Dear Social Corner Friends: SUD- | bose that many Of our Social Corner Friends were very glad to read Aunty' S invitation to meet with her Sept. 18th l at her beautiful home where we were l all so happy last year.
 i l had planned and hoped to invite lswith me in August. but the strike of | the trolley employees upset all of my 1 plans.
 ! Since September came in the wea- ther has been so uncertain that I have decided to not try to have the annual picnic here l regret very muoS- that II N not invite them to come early in 1 the season, but as they in the past have seemed to enjoy coming when the huckle berries were at their best I had planned to invite all of the clubs l to meet with Club No. ? at my home and we all have a royal good time when the days were long and sunny, and the weather suitable for out-of- door enjoyment for the elderly Sisters of The Corner. But the strike of those who seemingly thought only of their own selfish interests made it so very inconvenient to get to my home that it did not seem best to do anything about the gathering then, and the weather has been so unpleasant and so little sunshine since the cars be- gan to run. that much ls l regret to miss the pleasure of our annual meet ing of the Social Corner Friends at my home here. it seems best under exist ing circumstances to omit it this year.
 I do not feel well able to be host ess to large 8 number 1 should if We had been having dry. sunny wea ther for the past month
 I am hoping to be able to attend Aunty No Is picnic. but unless we afraid I shall have to stay at home and try to ward off rheumatism which is trying to claim my attention IS a permanent guest.
 Of course, it cannot be old age as am only seSenty- eight.
 did so enjoy the good time at -Oiga's; but on my way home I met with quite a loss which I shall re- gret. had with me my book with the names of The Social Corner Sis days and I think I must have lost it | on the train going from Norwich to Jewett City. It was very warm on tho train and I took off my coat, in | book which I did not miss until the ] next day when I could not find it. l When I laid my coat down or took it | up. it must have fell out unperceiv- | ed by me. My name and address was | on the front of it. 50 that any one | finding it could have notified me. I ] would gladly have sent postage for it's return. and more. too. for I prized it | very highly as there were auto | sra phs in it that it would be impossi- l ble for me to get again. Great Cram 1 ma wrote her name in it last year at l Aunty No. Is picnic, her address, and l age. l
 In losing the book I have lost all l of the records of the birthdays If | The Social Corner members so if thet Sisters do not receive birthday card 1 from me they must not blame me as i I have no record now. I have hop-j ed that the book might be returned to l me after some one had had time to write off the names and addresses a<4d | other items they might want to copy: 1 but think now that probably it is gone forever.
 I do hope that September 25th will 1 be a pleasant day, and that a large company may be permitted to enjoy | the pleasure of being entertained at | Aunty No 1's
 With all good wishes for the con- | tinuance. of The Social Corner and all 1 of it's interests.
