Open Meeting A Success
Junior Order Excels Itself In Latest
Public Event.
_
The Junior Order of Pleasantville has
long since attained a reputation for do
ing things, and their last effort was no
exception to the rule, but rather increas- \
ed their record of big things accomplish- j
ed. On Friday evening last, Red Men’s |
Hall was packed to its utmost capacity
with members of Excelsior Council and
their wives and families and invited
guests in numbers over four hundred,
assembled for the first open meeting of
the Council. For fear some one present
might think he or she was not welcome,
Rev. S. R. Stratton, in behalf of the
Council assured the audience that such
was not t'he case, and in well-chosen
words made everyone feel perfectly
welcome and at home. Then followed a
lengthy program of songs, recitations
and instrumental music, in which each
of the participants was at his or her
best, and afforded much pleasure to all.
Amo(ig the reciters were Emma Lamar,
who impersonated Martha Washington;
Mrs. E. J. Hazelton, who related experi
ences in the buying of shoes, soap and
soda water, eliciting much laughter;
Pauline Stalford. Margaret Lake, Arme
nia Rislev, Mrs. Hera and Earl Krewson.
A piano selection was given by three
girls, an instrumental duet by A. E. j
Danielson and daughter, vocal solos by
Mamie Price. E. J. Hazelton, Miss Ida
Stephenson, Miss Cox and Frank Smith,
the male quartette sang, and there was
a baritone solo. Excelsior Council Baud
was at its best, and interspersed freely
choice and appropriate selections. And
last but not least by any means came
the refreshments of ice cream and cake
abundantly supplied and served by Wm.
Hauenstein and his committee of able;
assistants. Altogether the affair was a
howling success, and adds another star ;
to the crown of this progressive Council. ;
