fact their organization has just seen
the light. Their organization was
perfected at a recent meeting when

with his wife gave high class en-
tertainment at the Atlantic Chris
tian College last evening. Prof.
R1ker was the guest of Mr.. Graham
WoodIard and delighted the mem
bers of the club with number Of
selections faultlessly sung. When
Prof. Riker asked some one to play
the accompaniments Mr.. Elmer Oct
finger was sent forward by the club
which combines all kinds of talent,
Quiesced, and the music rendered
/, enabled Prof. Riker to give a num-
ber of selections that called for en-
cores that were most graciously CIV
en-.
The meeting was presided over by
President w. A. Edgerton who was
in fine shape and form. He kept
the meeting going in good shape,
with many quips and good natured
terms aptly placed
The minutes of the last meeting
were read by Secretary Patrick ana
