After the sweets of the menu had

sical skit was presented by several
members of the club under the direc
tion of Mr. and .Mrs. H. F. Harris
and Miss Nancy Owens, Mr. Harris
being chairman of the evening’s pro
gram committee. Miss Dorothy Ha
gan of Goldville, always a favorite
with the club, gave two violin selec
tions which were enthusia.stically re
ceived. An accordian .selection by
LeRoy Sanders also added to the pro
gram.
The club had as special out-of-town
guests, the Sigma Tau Alpha quar-
-tet, a unit of the Wofford college glee
club, accompanied by George With
ers, Jr., ^kit man. The program given
by the Wofford group consisted of a
group of popular musical seketions
and a comedy skit by Withers, who
scored a big hit with the audience.
The talented musicians were enthusi
astically applauded with each rendi
tion. Their program, whidh was one
of the features of the evening, fol
lows:
“A History of the Ockrina”—half-
hour skit by George Withers, Jr.
A group of selections by the quar

“Brahm’s Lullaby,” “Stout Hearted

Tnakmg-favors and edbfetti were irfaa
at each plate. The inimitable Johm
Holland Hunter, in the role of Santa
Claus in his time-honored costume,
conducted a drawing in which be pre
sented to each lady a present with
the club’s Christmas greetings. To
each lady there also went a club fa
vor, a pretty vase bearing the Ki
wanis emblem. Mrs. Wm. Brooks Ow
ens, the club’s highlj^ — esteemed
pianist, was presented a money gift
in behalf of the members'hip as a
Christmas remembrance.
The Kiwanis skit, musical selec
tions, the quartet, the presentation of
gifts to the honor gruests, and the
i evening’s fun and merriment, made
the occasion a very happy and gala
one, up to the high .standard main
