A Happy Success, a, Usual.

Last Thursday afternoon and evening
the Co Workers society of the First
Congregational church held their annual
bazaar and supper at the church. Not
understanding slippery walks and heavy
rain, the event netted the largest finan-
cial sum and the happiest fellowship of
anything ever ventured by the society.
After all bills and expenses were paid
the Co Workers discovered they had
over eight hundred dollars to their
credit as result of this united effort.
The society keenly values the splendid
cooperation of its own membership
and the liberal support of the people in
the city and country side.
