Whsren, the J. U. C's have
seen fit to bestir themselves in a
wonderful manner, and
thu result of that
hatiksgiving dinner
remarkable fancy and flavor, dig-

solidity, thereby taxing our jawa
to their utmist capacity, endan-

for future dyspepsia.
now therefore be it resolved
lbat we tender our profound
thanks to these girls, that onr
lives have been preserved in the
midst of such bounty, and that we
recommend to their wise consid-
eration mora kitchen lore and leaa
