held in the church Monday the 14th.
Quite goodly number were present.
This being the last meeting of the

hearing what had been accomplished
during the year, also if we had
reached our goal set a year ago.
Reports show that we have more
than done so. Our president, Mrs.
w. A. Adams, presided.
After a short business session a
member of the Junior society gave a
short program which was very much
enjoyed by the older society, and we
hope to be favored some time again.
Mrs. E. L. Martin sang a beautiful
solo, after which Mrs. Rayner told
briefly of the work that has been
done the past year. The countries
visited through the World Call" and
missionary book.
Mrs. Adams gave an inspiring talk
of the work we hope to accomplish
this coming year. We are glad that
we belong to such an energetic socie-
ty and hope at the end of the next
year our membership will have
doubled. REPORTER.
