W hat proved to be a profitable and
most enjoyable entertainment was
the box supper given by the ladies of
the Methodist church Friday night
for the purpose of raising funds to
make the final payment for their or
gan. This was easily accomplished,
as $46 was raised by the sale of, no,
not boxes, but the ladies’ shadows,
which were bid on by the gentlemen,
the successful bidded eating supper
with the lady whose shadow he pur
chased. A .novel feature of the en
tertainment was the costumes worn
by the ladies. Some wore the actual
garments worn before the Civil War,
loaned by some of the elderly ladies,
whose keepsakes they were, or per
haps the treasured heirlooms of the
younger set. Mrs. J. 0. Gates re
ceived the prize as the one most ap
propriately addressed for the occa
sion. It was a peep into the long ago,
and will never be forgotten by those
present.
