in,; when the ladies of the; choir enter-
tained the gentlemen of the choir and
the music committee of the church at
a Leap Year Valentine party. The
ladies, attired alike in white costumes,
decorated with hearts, welcomed their
guests and provided an enjoyable
program comprised of instrumental and
vocal music, and a number of unique
contests which provided much merri-
ment, in. which Miss Mao Wood, Mr.
Harry Rowe -and Mr. Bert Bisset
won the favors. Them all repaired to
the banquet room which was elabor-
ately and artistically decorated with
hearts, arrows red streamers, and
bright red candles and flowers, while
the song tables groaned under the
weight of goad things to eat, After
all had done ample, justice to .the
bounteous repast, the pastor, Rev. 34 f;
J. .Wilson. B.A., presided in a capable
and happy manner over a toast list,
which prayed to be\niot the least en-
joyable part of the evening's program.
At a late hour the party brake up
with the hope that (this would not be
the last of such pleasant gatherings.
A hearty vole of ,thanks was tender-
ed the ladies and many expressions of
appreciation and compliments were ex-
pressed to the camm.3ttee, consisting
of Mrs, Wright, Miss Essery and Miss

the arrangements for such a successful
