The Tarry-a-While Club met
with the Misses Roden last Thurs-
day evening. This being the
first meeting in about two months
the members were rather glad
to be assembled once more. After
chatting among themselves for a
while they indulged in playing
som’ri-set. Misses Ruby Roden
and Belle Griffith made a desper-
ate effort to acquire skill in hand-
ling their cards, but to their
disappointment they remained
stationary.
Three of the members were
absent and were missed very
much.
There were two gentlemen
applicants for membership, but
after careful consulting the Con-
stitution and By-laws, it was
found that only “old maids”
were eligible. To some thia was
a disappointing discovery.
The next meeting wil) be with
Miss Rimmert.
Many rep»rts are circulated in
