propnate, was given the organiza-
J tion: “The Spinster’s Club.”
About five members were pres-
j ent when the meeting was called
to order, but after “hailing” all
of the spinsters who passed, there
was a considerable increase. In
fact, we are about to despair since
we have found so many “old-
maids” in our midst.
Our rules and regulations are
something dreadful, and our sink
ing fund without depth.
Please be careful that you do
not confuse our occupation with
that of other renown.
Mind you, we don’t spin “sters’
fojgfcj “yam,” so any amount may
be obtained at the club-house.
The main purpose of our organ
ization is to develop local talent
and to tb ©roughly familiarize the
members with parliamentary laws
in order that each old-maid may
time to pass her judgment on
man (and) kind (of man.)
Miss Francis Moore entertained
at the last meeting and never did
a hostess prove more charming.
Much work was planned for the
future, under the direction of the
following officers: Miss Mary Kil-
len,President; Miss Carolyn Elise
Riley Vice president, Miss Holle-
man, Secretary; Miss Francis
Moore,Treasurer;and Misses Kate
Hodges and Willie Cooper Edi
tors.
The nest meeting will be held
at the Vice president’s home on
Main street, Thursday afternoon
at 4:80 o’clock.
To The Public.
Lend us your ears and your
sympathy,—a little later we will
ask for your money, then the old-
maids of Perry shall surprise you,
