At first it rained. and then it rained
some more, and at last it poured, but
in spite Of the deluge hosts of people
attended the Co Workers bazaar and
supper in the lecture room of the Con
gregational church last Thursday after
noon and evening
All things considered, 1t was the
most notable and successful bazaar ever
conducted by the society; the proceeds
from the supper alone amounted TO
nearly $4,000, and the sales at the
different booths were equally large.
A happy feature Of the evening was
the music furnished by the Sunday
School orchestra of ten pieces.
The Co Workers feel that the UNI
usual success of this bazaar is due to
the loyalty and support of their friends
in the community who braved the storm
in order to give helping hand on this
occasion, and SO, with feelings Of sin
cerest appreciation, the society extends
a heart given THANK You. to each
and all who in any way helped toward
making this 1921 bazaar such memoir
able success.
