The next Thursday at prayer meeting the minister announced the glad news to the faithful. Then all began to get ready. The gazelles blew about $82.00 for finery to wear at the big doings, while the older sisters used up $27.00 worth of complexion and $19.00 worth of groceries fixing up cakes, candy, etc. The deacon and the special committee put in $12.00 worth of time decorating the parlors, and the table decorations cost just $20.00. Some of the spenders brought their girls in taxicabs. It cost them $2.00 each, but they were willing to help the church. Lucy Wilkens rented a Gypsy costume for $6.00 and told fortunes. She took in $2.70. At 10 P.M. much of the refreshments were unsold, so the kids were given a free hack at it. The expenses of the affair amounted to $250.00. When the sisters found that they had taken in $46.80 they agreed that the festival had been a great success. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
