GIVE TEACHER AND
FRIEND A SURPRISE
E. H. Wescott "Victim" of Gentle
Conspiracy Last Evening at
''Sunnyside."
From Wednesdays Daily.
Since the organization of the
Young Men's Bible class of the
Methodist church sixteen years ago,
E. H. Wescott has officiated as the
teacher and to the members of his
class he has been both a leader in
the class work and a close and high
ly esteemed friend and comrade, and
to the members of the class and the
teachers the meetings have been fill
ed with pleasure as well as inspira
tional thought.
Last evening being the regular
meeting of the class. Mr. Wescott re
paired to the church building at 7:30
to assist in the "sing" and the regu
lar meeting and was rather surpris
ed to find but one or two of the
young men in attendance and these
seemed rather in favor of calling the
meeting off and going on back'liome.
After some discussion it was decided
that the class members must have
decided to seek a cooler spot and Mr.
and Mrs. Wescott, the latter being
the musical director of the class, de
cided to go on home.
On drawing near "Sunnyside,"
Mr. Wescott noticed several cars in
the vicinity of the house but was as
sured that tho neighbors were hav
ing guests and it was not until he
started to enter the home that he
was "wise" to the plans of the mem
bers of his family and friend3 as the
jolly crowd rushed forth and gave
him a hearty greeting and more than
carried out their plans of a surprise.
The evening was spent on the
lawn of the home which was most
attractive after the heat of the day
an dMr. Wescott, whose birthday
was being observed, was the center
of attraction from the crowd of
young men, some thirty in number.
A poll of the crowd developed the
fact that the aggregate weight of the
class was 4,500 pounds and the ag
gregate age of the "bunch" as 91fr
years, so the Y. M. B. C. is some large
and healthy organization.
To add to the enjoyment of the
crowd Miss Edith Mays of Wahoo, a
guest of Rev. and Mrs. Pfoutz, gave
two most charming vocal numbers
while Mrs. Wescott at the strenuous
urging of the class also gave two of
her always delightful selections, the
guest of honor presiding at the
piano.
Refreshments of rich, red. Juicy
watermelons was served during the
evening and the members did -their
full justice to the treat prepared by.
the family.
During the remainder of the even
ing the time was spent in social con
versation and the singing of a num
ber of the old familiar songs and last
but by no means least, at the home
going hour the guest of honor was
given a thorough roughing so that
he would appreciate the passing of
his birthday.
