Chapter X Elects Officers
The annual meeting of Chapter X P
E Oi for election and installation of
Olivers was held at the homo of Misses
Laura and Maudo McMillen last Satur
day evening In former years election
night has seemed rather a bore thau
otherwise since no one wished to take
any office The Misses McMillen art
fully changed all that by sanding out
invitations to the members for a seven
oclock dinner and of course no one
would absent herself from an event like
that
Fortunately for Chapter X tho hos
tesses had a reputation to sustain as
proveditors of excellent dinners and
this one was equal to the best served in
four courses in approved style as evi
denced by the satisfaction of the guests
Between the serving of the last two
courses the electric lights went out giv
iog the company an opportunity to
lighten the rooms with brilliant con
versation
It is a fact that women as well as
men are on the best of terms with
themselves and the world after having
been well dined so the election wont off
in the best of humor resulting as fol
lows President Mrs Wilcox vice
president Mrs Ebert recording secre
tary Miss Powers corresponding secre
