full tea given Tuesday afternoon by

Bentley Thomas and Mrs. William
W. Moore presided at the tea table.
Recent guests of Mr.. and Mrs.
Thomas at Tanglewood were their

Mrs. Robert Turner of Alfred Sta
ton, N. Y, and their three chill
dren, Johnny, Bobby and Posey.
Mr.. Turner left his family here

The men of st. Johns Episcopal
Church in Olney are holding a
sausage and waffle supper at the
Parish Hall tonight, Thursday,
January %, from until 7:30 pm.
According to one of the committee,
this supper is being given by the
men to prove that women are nice,
but not necessary" We hope Mrs.
Douglass Riggs, who has made
thousands of those delicious rolls
served at st. Johns suppers and
Mrs. Harris Graver who is usually
general chairman of the suppers,
not to mention Mrs. Thomas Lad
son, sr., the chef when biscuits are
served, will not read this or there
might be rebellion! Seriously,
the supper is for the benefit of the
rug fund of st. Johns. We have
the rug, now the men are raising
the money to pay for it.
