Unique Event
For Home for Aged

The Home of the Aged in Rector
stree will be the scene OF a new
variety of entertainment on Friday
night at s o'clock, the first OF rs
kind in the history of the institution.
The party. for that is what it re-
ally is, was made possible by Gus
NJ Pappas, proprietor of the Boston
Confectionery in Smith street, when
he presented to the Home on sun
day morning a milk chocolate Eas-
ter egg Weighing thirty pounds.
Although those living at the home
were much pleased with the gift,
the question which confronted them
was what to do with the huge egg
and it was finally decided to hold a
breaking up party during which the
egg would be broken up and the
candy distributed among those pres
ent.
People interested in the welfare
of the old folks and the home in
general, came forward and suggest
ed that the affair be made a gala
occasion, so since Sunday plans have
been perfected whereby an enter
tainrnent will be given and refresh
ments served when the big breaking
event takes place.
The egg is decorated with rab-
bits, birds and fancy work, all in
chocolate, and was entirely con-
structed In the Boston Confectionery
work shop.
