1 Stacks of Pancakes
Served at St. Paul's
On Shrove Tuesday
The Evening Guild of St. Paul's
Church held its fifth annual pan-
cake supper on Tuesday of ,last
week with a much larger attend-
ance than .usual. At one stage the
ladies were afraid they might have
to disappoint • some of the peopl,'
who had turned out to support the
effort, hut they believe that they
were table to as rnmmodate every.
one by sending out for more sup
plies.
Abolit 250 people were served.
Over 90 pounds of flour and mor•
than seven gallons of syrup were
used for the pancakes, and ten
pounds of cheese disapteared with
the apple pie.. With the increasing
popularity of the pancake supper,
the ladies will be prepared to serve
more people next year.
As usual, the younger girls of
the congregation tur.led out to
help the Guild by waiting on table,
and a number of men took over the
frying pans, Bob Ritter, ,lade
Parkinson, Herb Fuller; Alvin Hig-
gins; Norman. Cronkwright an,(l
Bob Abara were kept busy cooking
the pancakes and Elmer Walker
served coffee. Jack Hayes, an-
other member of the male team,
proved popular with the ladies
when he displayed his skill at
dishwashing.
The junior choir members were
guests of the Guild on this occasion
and certainly did justice to the in-
vitation, if numbers of pancakes
eaten was an indication of appre-
ciation,
