Ladies Are Honored
By Kiwaniaits With
A Lovely Banquet
In an appropriate . Thanksgiving
setting the twenty-first annual “ladies
night” celebration of the Clinton
Kiwanis club took place last Friday
evening in the Bush River school-
house near here, The party is given
annually during the pre-Christmas
season to honor the “Kiweens” and
invited guests. The entertainment,
because of the war, was informal and
somewhat “streamlined.” /
Frank M. Boland, the retiring pres
ident, presided as master of ceremo
nies and welcomed the guests.
An elegant four-course turkey din
ner was furnished by the ladies of
the School Improvement association,
with the girls of the home economics
class serving.' Both the food and ser
vice were excellent.
At the conclusion of the dinner the
group assembled in the auditorium
where singing was led by John G.
Barden and several humorous selec
tions given by J. H. Hunter, Haynie
G. Prince and Julian Bolick. In a
contest in which several members
were dressed as ladies, Robert D.
Lynn was selected by the judges as
winner.
The party was kttended. by more
than 120 Kiwanigns, their wives and
guests. f
During the evening Rev. and Mrs.
J. LeGrande Mayer were called to
the rostrum and presented a lovely
pair of wool blankets as a gift from
the club since they left Monday for
Charleston where they will make
their future home. The newly elected
president in presenting the gift to
the Kiwanian Mayers said:
“Tonight we pause in our program
of joy and fun to honor one of our
members who is about to leave our
community. Kiwanian J. LeGrande
Mayer, pastor of St John’s Lutheran
church, became a member of the
Clinton Kiwanis club in June 1939.
Since that time he has proved that
he is a true Kiwanian through his
support of the program of the Clin
ton club and of” Kiwanis Interna
tional. For the past two years he has
served most effectively as the club’s
secretary and treasurer. His work in
this capacity has received commen
dation and high praise from the dis
trict lieutenant governor and secre
tary. He has given of his time and
efforts unceasingly to make sure that
the work of his office was weQ done.
“We deeply regret that LeGrande
and his family have been called from
our community. We have learned to
love them, and their going will leave
an empty place in our circle of
friends. We cannot refrain from say
ing that we envy Charleston the
privilege of hMdnf the Mayers as Its
citizens. —
“We kntwTCt LeGrande—and we
like that nSme—is a good man, a
good Kiwanian, and a good secretary-
treasurer. We also know that Mrs.
Mayer is largely responsible for his
being what he is. We would like for
them to come forward together and
receive this token of our esteem and
friendship, and we hope that it will
help them to keep a warm spot in
their hearts for Clinton, especially
the Clinton Kiwanis club.”
