Miss Loomis. (holding up paper). O here they are! I’ll read them!
Miss Loomis. The regular meeting of the Ladies’ Aid Society was held on November tenth at the residence of Mrs. Winter, seven members present, and the President, Mrs. Jenkins, being in the chair. Minutes of last meeting read and approved. Report of supper committee read and approved. Proceeds of harvest supper, seven dollars and thirty-five cents.
Mrs. Winter. We charged too much for that supper, or we’d have made more money.
Mrs. Hodges. (sharply). I don’t think we charged too much considering the terrible price of food.
Mrs. Winter. (irritably). Well, I don’t like to work my feet off for a measly seven dollars.
President. (rapping). Ladies, will you please come to order. Miss Loomis, continue with your report.
Miss Loomis. (nervously). I lost my place. Let’s see—
President. (to help her). You were reading about the harvest supper.
Miss Loomis. O yes. It was voted to send a box to Mrs. David Brown, committee to meet at the home of Mrs. Banks, chairlady of the committee.
Mrs. Banks. There were only two of the society there.
