MARTHA. QREATI-Y ENJOYED ANNIVER- SARY MEETING. I Corner’ Friends: As I cial | have not written much lately, luvinl the. m for others to Il in, I feel as 18 I éould not 'let bur anniversary meeting of March 4 go by without writing about the ;nod. time _that all ‘Who were so fortundte as to be there, s)l?ed to have. The day was an ideal one as far as the weather for that day was concerned, but the trav- eling was bad on-many of the coun- try' roads keeping many from (going that would have been glad to be there. There was such an earnest desire to be there,that many made extra efforts and the comfortable day was just what they had been asking for. The bright sunshine out doors seemed to be reflected in each smiling count- enance as the different ones entered well laden with thé good things to eat Every one seemed to have tried to have the best that skill could pro- @uce and they succeeded admirably. There seemed to be nothing lacking on the well filled table, which was tastefully -decorated with the colors of the Corner, and with & beautifyl bou- quet brought by Lucy Acorn thaj grew in her. cellar fro vegetable: raised in the garden. e were all %0 giad to see her after her long ab- sence, as she has not 'met with us since she became a happy bride over a. year ago. We were very glad that Mrs. Price was able to be present with us, although still very lame. We miss her smiling face when she is not there. It addéd véry much to the joy of the occasion to welcome so many frém Club No. 1. They always bring so much joy and sunshine with them. We, were very sorry not to see the ‘smiling facé of ‘Grandma H., as she always adds very much to the enjoy- ment of the whole company, but were very glad' that her two daughters and and granddaughter could come, and we hope befora our next meeting that the snow and. ice will be gone so that the electric cars can run on all of the lines so that all who -want to can come. As we look back over the years gince our Social Corner was started we can- not help but see that it has steadily gained in interest and influence, that through its influenice many new ac- | quaintances have been formed and a higher intérest in the every day du- § of life has been inépired and a feeling of comradship and helpfulness has steadily grown until like a’ silk- en cord binding - our hearts together in, a union.that we did not know be- fore we joined The Corner.

Theoda stood at the head of the stairs in Franklin hall and gave us a royal wel- come. Next came Olive with her smil- ing face, followed by others of Club No. 1. The dinner table was well laden with all the goodies that the sisters know how to maKe. In the center of the table was a birthday ¢ake with ten candles, with yellow streamers around it, coming from bal- cony to table. Yellow paper bows were tied on baskets and gcattered about the table. The hostésses wore white and had yellow butterfly caps which gave a touch of spring. In the center of the room were chairs in a circle and. everyone wvisiting and looking at the different pieces of work the othérs were busy at. A few minutes past 12 we ‘were \told to find our own dishes at toes, salmon and salmon loaf.
