in the basement of the church. There
were 134 people present, and it was
an occasion of much fun and happi-
ness. The guests were arranged ac-
cording to the societies to which they
belong, separate tables being set!
for the Juniors, Intermediates and
Seniors, and each division rendered
its quota of stunts. The Juniors were
voted to have had the best line of
stunts, and they added much to the
entertainment.
As a result of the convention, two
members signed up for full time re
ligious work. They, were Miss Grace
Nance of Paris and Lawrence Malloy
of Tyler, formerly of'this place. The
convention was a success in every
way, and the local society received
much praise from the visitors for the
manner in which they were entertain-
ed and for the excllence of the pro-
gram.
