Chesney; directors, Mrs. F. J. Lowrey
and Mrs. F. G. Amweg. But, exceeding
ly to the regret of the society, Mrs.
Westervelt, at our regular meeting In
June, felt obliged, owing to ill health, to
resign the office of president. Mrs. C.
B. Damon was thereupon elected In her
place, with Mrs. Ralph Geer as vice pres
ident. We have had, on the whole, rather an
encouraging year as regards the work
accomplished, even though our member
ship roll Includes but eighty names.
against ninety-six for last year, a state
of affairs difficult to understand, In view
of our large Increase of church member
ship during the past two years. Can we
not find some effectual method by which
the influence of this society and its work
may be increased proportionately? For
we firmly believe that this seeming lack
of interest is owing principally to entire
Ignorance on the part of many of our
ladies of even the existence of such a so
clety. Surely our work Is a sufficiently
important branch of our church society
to enlist the Interest and co-operation
of every lady In attendance upon our
church services If only the needs and
scope of our organization could be
brought to the notice of each.
We fe-l. In these days of the stranger
within our gates, that our social work la
of the greatest Importance in bringing
our church membership in closer touch
with each other, and we would urge upon
our older members our duty In regard to
attendance upon, and cordial co-opera
tion In, our bi-monthly socials.
Of these, six regular and one extra
have been held during 4he year the one
In January taking the form of a houso
warming at the new parsonage on Tlvirs
ton avenue soon aftr the removal of
our pastor and Ms family. This proved
to be a most enjoyable occasion, and was
participated in by several hundred of the
church anil congregation. The social
regularly occurring In September was
postponed until October in oider to make
it a welcome to Mr. and Mrs. Kincald
after an absence of severnl month?. whl!
the November social was delayed to be
givengjln connection with the annual roll
cnil held last evening, December loth.
The extra social occurred in August as
ja farewell to Dr. and Mrs. Adams of
San Francisco. Dr. Adams having
preached for us during Mr. Kincaid's
summer vacation.
Four regular meetings of the society
have been held during the year, and two
Special meetings of officers and directors.
V" have held also two entertainments
an anernoon tea in renruary. inrougn
the courtesy of Mrs. J. B. Atherton at
her beautiful home, and a chowder lun
cheon at the church In October. The
first had for its object the promotion of
sociability among our church ladles, and
the collection of membership fees, and,
while not a striking success as to the ob
ject last named. It certainly was in the
former, since two or three hundred ladles
availed themselves of Mrs. Atherton's
kind invitation, and a most enjoyable
afternoon was spent by all, for which
thi society owes Mrs. Atherton most
a rtjr thanks.
The luncheon given in October was
f r the benefit of our benevolent fund,
f -'to which we netted about ninety-six
liars.
