MILFORD NEW CENTURY CLUB

On Monday afternoon, December 6,
the president, Mrs. G. ID. Abbott, call
ed the Milford New Century Club to
order and the minutes of the prev
ious meeting were read and ap-
proved. The secretary read a letter
from the Delaware Colony regarding
the boy and girl who have been as
signed to the club and to whom they
will send Christmas gifts. This boy
and girl are about twenty years of
age and of normal size. Mrs. Rob-
ert Griffith was appointed as chair
man of a committee to receive the
articles which the club members will
donate for this purpose and she has
asked that anyone having articles
which they wish to donate will
please leave them at her home before

afternoon was in the hands of Mrs.
Julia Scott who now took the chair.
Her subject was Literature" and
she had centered her numbers
around our local town, making it a
Milford Day Mrs. Disston w. ia

vocal solos, the first was entitled
"Over the Moor" the words of which
were written by Charles David Alb

One of the interesting features of
the program was a paper given at
this time by Mrs. Elizabeth Riggs on
the Industries of Milford" In or
der that we might become familiar
with the work of some of our mod
ern young people the following
poems written by them were read:
Alpine Meadows" by Charles Alb
bott; THE Storm" by Lawrence
Lack and ITO My Wife" and 1.-The
Question" by Anna Drew Scott.
Mrs. Pratt now spoke of the home
life of Mr.. Hynson and read some
other selections written by him. Mrs.
William Warren sang one of her own
musical compositions entitled Come
Back Dear Love" and followed it by
that familiar Mexican song, Mar
cheta." Mrs. Scott closed the pro-
gram with some extracts from her
latest book, That Fool NIoffett."
Next Monday will be the regular
