The Quality of Thoroughness.

One 1 qualification a business girl should cultivate, if she Wants to give satisfaction and ‘ to be sure always of a position, is thoroughness. The girl who does things thoroughly is a joy to her employer. Let her have that reputation and a business man will bolt the office door for fear she will escape before he can engage her. The girl who half does her work is everywhere. The girl who is thorough is rare. And, like all rare things, she is prised.

"Presbyterian Ladles’ Bazaar Was a Splendid Success.

The annual bazaar which the Presbyterian ladies hold each year was held this year in the dining room of the thu-eb Thursday and Friday afternoons and was the usual successful - affair that it has been for many years. The artistic and cheerful room was gaily decorated with Xmas green and red and the table filled with blooming plants which J. tH. Holden had for sale for the cemetery board, added to the attractiveness of the room. The candy table in charge of Mesdames Ray Wood, Zern Wright and John Horton did a flourishing business. The ladk of room made it necessary to limit the invitations to supper both evenings, to members and supporters of the church. The supper was in charge of Mrs. J. W. Horton and was admirably managed, so that in spite of close quarters the. large crowd present were excellently fed at a very reasonable price. The ladies who assisted in the service deserve much praise. Tea was served each 'afternoon by Miss Marceline Roberts and her Sundiay school class, which added a note of hospitality to the affair. The Ladies’ Literary had a representative present who sold the Red Cross stamps.

Mrs. John Eger, who is president of the Industrial, is the ope on Whom the responsibility of these yearly affairs reSts very 'largely and the members of the society 'have a just pride in the capable management. Next year it will be held much earlier in orddr that all may secure Xmas gifts in ample time.
