WOMEN'S MISSIONARY SOCIETY

The Women's Foreign Missionary Society of Fairfield met on Friday afternoon with Mrs. Horace Ward, east of town, the president in charge.

After singing "I Love to Tell the Story," prayers were offered by Mrs. Snider and Mrs. Barbour. The hostess read the devotional lesson from "The Rose Jar." After the business, Mrs. Geo. Jinks read a paper on the last chapter of "Moslem Women," with Mrs. Herbert Ward and Mrs. Herbert Jinks each taking a part.

Mrs. Herbert Ward read a leaflet "Lydia" and Mrs. H. Jinks read a letter from a missionary. 

Several are planning to attend the group meeting at Liberty, and Mrs. Alma Himelick will go as delegates. Mrs. Mary Pinkerton read the benediction.

The hostess served fruit salad, little cakes and coffee.

14 members were present. Mrs. Herbert Sherwood and Mrs. Dimmitt Butcher and daughter Marjorie were guests. 

The meeting was much enjoyed by all.

NOTE: As of April 1, 2025, I am still living and I actually KNEW many of these women. Of course, in 1927, they weren't quite as old as they were when I knew them. -- John
