Also Enjoys Very Interesting Talk
on South America by George
L. Kerr, of New York.
From Friday's Daily
Last evening the Philathea class
of the Methodist Sunday school, com
posed -of the adult ladies, had a very
pleasant gathering at the home of
their teacher, Mr. C. C. Wescott. it
being the regular business meeting
of the month and the attendance at
the meeting embraced the larger part
of the class.
The ladies held their regular elec
tion of officers for the ensuing year
and selected as the leaders in the
class work, Mrs. V. R. Holmes as
president, Mrs. Will Heinrich as vice
president, Mrs. Lawrence Sprecher as
secretary and Mrs. Herman Hough
as treasurer. As the teacher of the
class, the ladies unanimously re
elected Mr. Wescott, wl:rt ha-, been
their Instructor since the organiza
tion of the class.
The outgoing president, Mrs. A.
Ghrist, was tendered a rising vote
of thanks by the members as she has
performed some very splendid work
in the past year toward the up
building of the organization and her
efforts have contributed largely to
the increase in the membership of the
class.
One of the pleasant features of the
meeting was the Informal address of
Mr. George L. Kerr, of Olean, New
York, on "South America." Mr. Kerr
spent a number of years in the south
ern hemisphere, where he was en
gaged in research work in Ecuador
and his delightful accounts of the
character of the country, the habits
of the people and the descriptions of
the tropical wealth of beauty as well
as the wildness of the mountainous
part of the country proved very in
teresting and held the closest atten
tion of his hearers. The speaker had
with him a number of photographs
of the southern republic that proved
a real treat to the ladies and his ad
dress was also fully appreciated by
all the members of the class.
