boys on mischief bent swiped the grate

A realized dream of beauty was seen
last evening at the annual bazaar of
the Federated Church Aid Society
Type and color scheme of the various
Aooths arrested attention, and the ef
fect of tlie whole was strikingly beau
tiful. This aspect of the function oc
casioned frequent remark.
The fancy booth occupied the cen
ter of the room. It was in charge of
Miss Lomen, Mrs. Stevenson and Mrs.
Ayer. Beautiful articles were dls
played. and all were sold before the
bazaar closed. The doll contest was
a feature of this booth, managed by A.
R. Miller, who announced from time
to time the progress of the voting.
Martha Hull won the doll with Eliza
beth Holden a close second. The final
count was as follows:
Martha Hull .4525
Elizabeth Holden ...3660
Dorothy Renney .2026
Mrs. Crowley was assisted by Holly
■Tones and Jean Crowley at the candy
booth, and a fine assortment of home
made sweets quickly disappeared.
The apron booth was supplied with
a large variety of useful articles
It was in charge of Mrs. Loerpable,
Mrs. Grimm and Mrs. Geo. B. Smith.
The booth did a brisk business
throughout the evening, and only a
few articles remained unsold.
Mrs. Kelling and Mrs. S. Moore
conducted the popular fish pond, and
all tho fish were angled out of the
stream.
At the ice cream booth Mrs. Mulli
gan was assisted by Mrs. Irving Reed,
Mrs. Ledding and Miss O’Connor. It
was a lively social center throughout
the evening.
At an attractive booth fruit punch
was served by Miss Crowley and Miss
Cameron.
The supper department was man
aged by Mrs. Kock, Mrs. Riggs and
Mrs. Williamson, assisted by a num
ber of young ladies. This feature of
the bazaar was quickly put out of
business by tho number who sought
to enjoy its hospitality. A splendid
supper was given, and beautifully
served. Next time the committee will
keep nearer abreast with the demand.
Socially, financially and artistically
the bazaar was a fine success. Also
musically. For during the evening
a duet was given by Elmer Reed and
Billy Rose; two solos of Frank Lilly,
two by Miss Rannie Baker, and a
number of popular songs by a group
of popular musicians.
It is announced today that the
