Among the ladies from the Fifth

Mrs. A. B. Cleverly. ward leader: Mrs.
E. H. Every, Mrs. W. F. Ambler. Mrs.
Edgar L. Raymond and Mrs. Ira H.
Rig-gins. The ladies found the hear-

The Civic Association of Rowayton
will .hold the regular'monthly ureet-
ing in the Hose House on Monday
evening. April 18th, at 8 o'clock. The
meetings are interesting and the mem-
bership is increasing slowly but sure-
ly. All members who do not attend
regularly are urged to do so and all
who are not members are cordially
invited. to come to this meeting ano
join the Association. With fl large
membership and good attendance at
meetings there is no limit to the good
that might be accomplished.
The dance given at the Rowayton
Hose company on Wednesday evening
was well attended and it is safe ‘to say
that those present. or nearly all those
present. enjoyed the affair. VVellnitz's
orchestra furnished music. One re-
grettable fact is that the attendance
wa snot made up of folks of the com-
munity. It was for the community
that the dances were first started and
have been continued. for the past three
months. It is safe to say that half of
those present last evening were from
out of the village. There were several
young men from the neighboring
towns who came with Rowayton lad-
ies, these the committee were happy
to have present. but there were many
others who had no interest in the at-
fair aside from-the fact that there
was excellent music and the admis-
sion was only 25 cents. Consequently
they came. The three ladies who in-
stituted the idea in the beginning did
not .expect everybody with the neces-
sary admission to come but expected
it to be just a gathering of friends
there for a good time. The first two
or three dances weer most enjoyable
the dance on Wednesday this could
not be said. I‘hder the circumstances
no more dances under the original
idea will be given. as the original pur—
pose of them sccms to have been lost
sight of.
