SOCIETY EVENTS:

GEORGE WHITE and wife, who had been married twenty-nine years Wednesday, and
MR. and MRS. SAMUEL BENNINGTON who had reached the fortieth anniversary of
wedded life, celebrated the event at the home of MR. and MRS. ANTHONY MAUK,
in Whitebreast Township, by inviting a number of relatives and old friends
to a sumptuous dinner. The day was spent socially, recalling many instances
of former days and all report a pleasant time.

The Thimble Club was delightfully entertained Thursday afternoon at the home
of MRS. NELLE STORIE, on Court Avenue. A three-course dinner was served,
and the evening spent in games and social amusements.

The Willing Workers Club met Thursday with MRS. LIZZIE PENICK. The day was
spent in needle work and in a social way. A sumptuous dinner was served.

We failed to mention last week the banquet given by the Eagles, in honor of
their second anniversary. The club rooms were tastefully decorated and a
most pleasant evening was spent. The banquet was served by EMERY FARLIN.

THOMAS PATON was 73 years of age Wednesday, and his friends gave him a post
card shower. He has been confined to his bed for nearly two years with
paralysis, and the presence of friends and their kindly remembrance for him
was greatly appreciated.

The Juniors of the Chariton High School gave a literary and musical
entertainment at the High School building Friday evening. It was first class
in every respect and enjoyed by a fair sized audience.

The Z.E.X. Club was entertained at the home of MRS. VERNE JAMES, Monday
afternoon.

The Easter Stars had a very pleasant meeting Tuesday evening. There were
two candidates for initiation, after which lunch was served and a social
hour spent.
