On Wednesday afternoon at her
home on Belle street. Mrs. E. A. Latta
entertained the Sans Souci Literary
club at a most enjoyable meeting.
After the minutes and roll call, re
ports were given from the commit
tees and these were followed by the
program.
The subject for the afternoon dealt
with "Men of America," and was in
troduced by a paper on Thomas
Edison, given by Mrs. C. S. Dodd.
Edison’s life was interestingly told by
Mrs. Dodd, from his early struggles
to his final wonderful achievements
which have placed him at the top of
the ladder where he is acclaimed the
world’s greatest Inventor.
Mrs. A. H. Fyne gave a talk on the
Wright brothers, giving facts about
their early lives and training and their
successful flight of the airplane at
Kitty Hawk. From this event. Mrs.
Fyne traced he development of avia

Ev* and IJUtan knew that had
made Laura cry more.

opened my purse and showed her.”
“‘Go down to Grand Centra) Sta
