of a business nature and chief among
the matters discussed was the pro-
poal to have the West Sisters string

and which will be open to the public.
The WTest sisters are well known here
and are among the most talented mu

noon was the piano and flute solos
given by Mrs. Elbert Wiles and
which were artistic and very pleas
ing to the ladies present.
The hostesses served very dainty
and delicious refreshments at a suit
able hour which completed a most
profitable and pleasant afternoon.
