League Literary Meeting.
evening, Jannary 80th,
ruei
found a happy crowd of Leagbers
gathered together; and under the
glow of the georgeous red lamp iu
MrB. Frank Cater’s beautiful par
lor, they looked even more smil
ing than ever. The evening was
to be speut in Company with one
of our m6st distinguished and
best loved American poets, H. W.
Longfellow. After the usual pre
liminary meeting consisting of
devotioual exercises, reports of
officers, etc., the meeting was
turned over to the 8rd Vibe Presi
dent, Miss Lula Houser,and quite
well we were entertained by her
program. In answer to the call
many responded with fitting quo
tations from the chosen poet.
Miss Amelia Rogers gave extracts
from Life and Works of Longfel
low. Mrs. Houser vividly por
trayed a storm ait sea iii which
the schooner 'Hesperns was wreck"
ed and her crew totally destroyed.
Mrs. J. W. Simmons sang “The
Rainy Day” with her # usual pa
thos, and we felt like i£ was rain
ing, raining, every where; and that
life was all sad and drear j, and
how glad we were when the sun
shone out, reminding us that be-
hiud all the dark clouds of life,
the sun is still shining, and iiT
spite of their blackness there is a
silver lining. When Miss Corinne
Baldwin gave us “Footsteps of
Angela,” bringing back sweet*
memories of the past, and the
pictures hanging 'upon memory’s
wall were reproduced among
which mingled light foot steps,
gentle touches, sweet tones and
voiceless prayers,then we felt like
the evening was complete.
The instrumental music inter
spersed between these pieces ren
dered by Mi*s. Paul, Hiss Allie
Houser, Miss Mary Davis, was ex
ceptionally fine. On the Whole
all seemed pleased with the exer
cises and more in love with the
poet than ever before. Many
thanks were showered on Mr. and
Mrs. Cater for 1 their hospitality.
Hoping that every Leaguer will oe
willing and anxious to do their
part toward making these meet
ings a success, au<^. that many
more attractive ones will be ar
ranged, we arb, Respectfully,
Committee.

fakey about it. It stands on its merit.
It is put up in a heat and pretty pack

Thursday Afternoon Club.
Thursday, January 29, the club
ad, guests
members and invited guests were
delightfully entertained by Mrs.
Albert S. Dix at Her home on
fwift street. There was a full at
tendance, fer no one who has the
opportunity of enjoying the hospi-
by of ; Mrs. Dix would think
of denyiug themselves the pleas
ure of being a guest in her home.
This being the time for the re-
election of officers, the meeting
was unusually interesting.
A pleasant discussion resulted
in the election of Mrs. 0. E. Gil
bert for President, Mrs. E, L.
Dennard Vice President, Mrs. L.
S. Tounsley, Secretary. Mrs. Ca
ter,the former President, in a neat
little speech thanked the ladies
for their co-operation duriug the
past year, and with good will and
best wishes she returns to private
ranks.
Mrs. Cater has made a most ef
ficient officer; shq presided with
dignity and impartiality, and has
been instrumental in making the
club up-to-date in every respect.
Mrs. L. M. Paul, the former
Vice-President, did her duty in a
manner pleasing tO'all.
Mrs. Simmons, the retiring - Sec
retary did her full part, for which
she has the sincere thanks of the^
club.
The newly elected President and
Vtce President, we welcome with
pleasure and good will. Being la
dies of culture and refinerheut,
we trust them' to hold^ the reins
of government iu a judicious man
ner.
Mrs. Gilbert’s little speech* of
acceptance, though short, was
spicy and to the point. Miss
Chambers wou the prize in the
game contest. The refreshments
served by lone Smoak and Nellie
Dix were dainty and delicious.
