After supper devotionals were lead by Mrs. Seacrist, and a program was opened with a piano solo by Mrs. Shaffer.

Refreshments of ice cream and cake was served after the program. "Little Opal" Wins Race Excitement ran high on the horse race last evening held at the Y. M. C.

Baseball games featured the outdoor sports, and indoor games followed. Ice cream and wafers were served near the close of activities for the evening.
