On Monday evening the B.M.S.K.
held a very enjoyable sociable at
Miss Mabel Thompson's. The even
ing's enjoyment was started by
what is called a cob-web party. A
great deal of fun was gotten out
of this, for the members had GER
tainly made a complete cob-web,
and they all worked hard for the
souvenir found at the end of their
string. About 10 o'clock the COM
pany was invited out into the din
ing room, where sandwiches and
coffee were served, the first named
being tied with the Clubs colors,
blue and olive ribbons. After
spending social talking, the even
ing's pleasures ended with a pal
cite party. Each person was CIV
en- a neatly gotten up palette and a
piece of paper numbered with the
name of an animal written on it.
AS the numbers were called out,
the parties answering to them,
drew the animal on a large sheet
of paper. Those guessing the near

CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR DAY
The young peoples society of
Christian Endeavor" had a very
pleasant day to all concerned in
their anniversary exercises on Sun
day at the Methodist church. The
president of the united societies of
the State, Rev. George E. T'homp-
son, of Wilmington, was present
and occupied the pulpit both morn
ing and night. The choir led off
with an appropriate anthem, He
Shall Feed His Flock" followed by
the usual announced hymns and
prayer by the pastor. The Rev.
Mr.. Thompson on being introduced
took as the foundation of his dis
course, 81 write unto you young
men because We are strong" from
the first epistle of John. It was
necessarily an address rather than
a sermon, having the qualities of
both expressed in language clear
and distinct, and possessing the in
terest to the audience of a well de
livered narrative. The room was
filed to overlooking. "A well-ar-
ranged programme was gone
through with, including some good
music and an address by Rev.
Thompson on the benefit to them
of the Association, urging fidelity
on their part and commencing
them for their efficiency and num-
bers.
