speeches delivered have never been 

 equalled in Tarrytown villages. 



After Rev. Lucas Boeve had asked 

 the blessing President Bradley in a 

 witty speech turned the gavel over to 

 James T. Lawrie, for years treasurer 

 of the Society, and Mr. Lawrie made 

 a mot^t e>.eellent presiding officer. 



The dinner was well and generously 

 served. There was a plenty of every- 

 thing and everything was of the best. 

 So promptly were the seventy mem- 

 bers and guests served that Toast- 

 master Lawrie was able to start the 

 oratorical program shortly after nine 

 o'clock. P. R. Pierson, village presi- 

 dent, was the first speaker and received 

 a warm welcome. He was followed by 

 Judge Young, E. E. Carman in songs, 

 Rev. J. J. Henry, District Attorney 

 Davis. Chas. H. Tibbetts, J. Austin 

 Shaw with a poem, Supervisor J. J. 

 Sinnott, Rev. C. A. Ashmead, Super- 

 visor Millard in stories. Rev. Lucas 

 Boeve and Wallace Odell. "Auld Lang 

 Syne" closed the festivities. 



AMERICAN SWEET PEA SOCIETY. 



A meeting of the executive commit- 

 tee of this society was held at the 

 Hotel Breslin, N. Y., on Thursday, 

 Jan. IS, there being present Geo. W. 

 Kerr, president, Wm. Gray, W. A. 

 Sperling and J. Harrison Dick. A let- 

 ter was read from Harry A. Bunyard, 

 who has been secretary of the society 

 from its inception, tendering his 

 resignation of that office; after discus- 

 sion, this was accepted with regret. 

 Wm. Gray, Bellevue Rd., Newport, R. 

 I., was appointed secretary to carry 

 on the work until the annual meeting 

 in July. As this left a vacancy on the 

 executive committee, J. H. Stalford, 

 Bar Harbor, Me., was nominated. The 

 schedule and bulletin were discussed, 

 and these will be issued as one pui)- 

 lication by March 1 at latest. Other 

 matters for the furtherance of the ob- 

 jects and membership of the society 

 were discussed. 



so that those wishing to dance be- 

 tween courses can do so without dis- 

 turbing others. William H. Siebrecht, 

 Jr., is in charge of the dinner. 



Morris County Horticultural Society. 

 Being unable thus far to be present 

 in two places several miles apart at 

 the same time, all we are able to say 

 about the dinner at Morristown, N. J., 

 last Tuesday night is that it was the 

 same old Morris County dinner — a big 

 hilarious success, only more so. Were 

 you ever there? Yes? Then imagine. 

 But next week we'll tell you more.
