To say that they enjoyed them
selves would be but mild way OF
expressing it. They had a great time
they had hilarious time, and when
it came to the tables, as Tennyson
says, 40, the wild charge they made"
The table was laden with eats of ev.

candies.
Mrs. Goldman was ably assisted by
Mrs. L. Peacock in entertaining the
young people. The supper was pre-.
coded by games and other amuse-
ments, and after the supper they just
played a little and went home. So
much for the attractiveness of the
supper.
