The Dollar Social

The Dollar Social which was
held at the Community church
last Saturday evening was a
real success in spite of the rain.
There was an enjoyable pro-
gram. Mrs. Blakey, Mrs.
Nourse and Mr.. Fassett gave
their songs in a most pleasing
manner. While readings were
given by Mrs. Hall and Mrs.
Boyd and enjoyed by all The
Ladies Aid then gave their ex-
periences telling how they
earned their dollar. Space will
not permit US to print them all,
although they are all worth
hearing again; such as these for
example:
A short time ago went into a meeting
That goes by the name of The Ladies
Aid"
And sure received a greeting.
We talked Of things both great and
small;
OF things that made holler,
And after a while we talked about
How to earn dollar.
A dollar for the Ladies Aid, to help
them day by day
In doing deeds of mercy as they pass
along the way;
To help to bring to other lives a ray of
hope and cheer,
Aud helping them TO feel that life is
worth while here.
OF course one cannot do these things
unless they've got the money.
II there wasn't any bees, why there
wouldn't be any honey,
And SO | among the rest have come to
you tonight,
To tell you what I did TO earn my
dollar bright.
Well, first cleaned three pair of shoes,
And, believe me, IL was work,
For they were just plastered with Oregon
dirt,
And the only thing that kept me
from grumbling was
That | was working TO help on a good
cause.
This, done, the rest of my dollar |

Now don't misunderstood me, for he's
not lazy, mind,
For he would be up at four or FIVE
O'Clock In the good old Summer time.
But oh when the breeze il blowing and
it's freezing overhead.
How he hated TO get up Ia the morn.
Ing
How he loves to lie In bed.
But you see II helped the my dollar
thus to earn,

OF us any harm,
But we will soon be on the old routine

the teams were 50 we'll matched, that
the game was a gosse egg tie until
the last inning, when Grenora made
a score and bagged the game The
game is reported to be the best game
of the season, and h indicates that
the amateur players are fast getting
into trim and many fast games can
be looked for during the ensuing sea-
son. The Outlook battery was
Thompson and Garrick and Grenora's
was Anderson and Nunk.
A crowd of Outlook fans bussed up
and accompanied the tean to Grenora.
The game was exciting from start to
finish and no scores were rsade until
the last half of <ska pinth when Gre
nora with tive nassa ext,, scored Out
look made six hits and Gnaora made
four. The Outlook farmers showed
up with lots of ginger all of the time,
