day. Manchester people who were 
out of town Monday or Tuesday, 
could readily appreciate the work of 
our efficient superintendent in this 
regard.

A Successful Affair. 
The sale held at the beautiful 
School street home of the Misses 
Brown, in Manchester, Wednesday 
evening, under the auspices of the 
Ladies’ Social Circle of the Congre-

the amount of money raised to carry 
on the work of the society. 
The various tables were in charge 
of the following named ladies : 
Candy, Misses Gertrude and Mabel 
Goldsmith; cake, Misses Annie L. 
Lane and Eleanor Morgan; _ tea 
table, Miss Charlotte Brown. Ice 
cream was also served. 
The sale was from 2.30 to 5 o’clock 
in the afternoon and from 7.30 to 9.30 
in the evening. Some very pleasing 
piano selections by Miss Edith L. 
Wheaton added greatly to the plea- 
sure of the event. 
The committee in charge was com- 
posed of Mrs. F. M. Andrews (chair- 
man), Mrs.-Abbie Allen, Miss Hattie 
Allen, Miss Elizabeth Allen, Mrs.
