The supper given by the ladies at

Inv unite a number of our citizens,
who are enthusiastic in their praise
of the delicious food served IN sucn
generous style. 1t has been SAID
that their salads and coffee are UNI
surpassed and who doesn't like good
coffee and chicken salad? we may
live without poetry, music and art;
We may live without conscience
and live without heart;
We may live without friends ana
live without books;
But civilized man cannot live with
out cooks,
He may live without books, what is
knowledge but grieving,
He may live without hope-what is
hope but deceiving,
He may live without love, what Is
passion but pining.
But where is the man that can i've
without dining"
