The N. NJ. A. club, consisting of 10
Young ladies of Barre Thy the way the
N. NJ. A. represents no men allowed j,
held their final banquet at Miller's inn
in Montpelier last evening Perhaps
they have decided to allow men to en-
ter their sorority. Whatever ii was
they enjoyed an excellent supper from
the funds collected during the winter
months, when the club was organ
lied. No men were present despite the
fact that it was the final banquet, and
aside from the substantial little bill
paid by these young ladies TO the pro-
prietor Of Miller's inn, the club might
have dissolved in these two busy little
municipalities without even a mention
in our local columns. The undereur-
rent rumors travelling about at pres
ent are that the president and one Or
two of its most influential members
contemplate marriage and prefer to
disorganize the club rather than pay
the forfeiture for entering wedlocE.
Another is that the entire Is do not
wish to lose any more time in tho
Ave remaining months Of l92O's leap
year.
