THE MARLIN DEMOCRAT
Eighteenth Year - Number 41
Marlin, Texas, Saturday, October 12, 1907
-----
Weekly Meet of the Social Club.
-----

       The Wednesday Social club held the regular weekly meeting with Mrs. Mollie Bartlett Wednesday afternoon.  The members looked forward to this meeting, expecting nothing less than a most excellent time, and none were in the least disappointed.

       Sixteen members responded to roll call with current news.

       A destitute family was reported and the charity committee instructed to render assistance.

       Other interesting matters were given proper attention, after which the social feature was ushered in and reigned most pleasantly.  The popular game of 42 was indulged in.  Mrs. E. P. Hutchings' talley card registered the largest number of punches and her success was rewarded with a beautiful stick pin, Mrs. Geo. Frank taking the consolation prize, a china hat pin holder.

       Guests were Mesdames Branson, Finks and J. W. Bartlett.

       Delightful refreshments were served and enjoyed by all.

       After thanking the hostess for a pleasant afternoon the club adjourned to meet next with Mrs. W. O. Bunch.
