CHURCH SOCIAL WITH ,
BIG SURPRISE FOR ALL
Electric Light*: Brought About a
Regular Transformation.
The most memorable church supper
ind social that has occurred in rears
n a certain town In the middle west
ook place last winter. The town Is a
ural community in the center of a
arming territory of considerable ex
ent.
Because of the scattered population
he church supper la one of the annual
urcaslon* when everybody meets everybody
else and a whole year's sup
ply of gossip :? exchanged In the
rottrse of a single evening. More *han
th.it. however, the supper enjoys a big
reputation. And when the last one
ivas aanouaced the whole countryside
planned to be on hand
When the farmers began driving In
ihoitlv after dark, they were amazed
apon coming in sight of the church to
perceive a blaze of light pouring out of
pvery window. Out In one corner of
the churchyard a little gasoline eu
glne was chugging away, and Inside,
suspended from various points about
the building, were a number of gleaming
electric lights, replacing the battery
of kerosene lamps with whloii the
churcji had previously been lighted.
The curious farm folk soon discnv*
ered tha "system"- a self-contain* d
farm electric light and power plant,
consisting of the gasoline engine, an
electric generator, the necessary wir
ing and the Mazda lamps. It was a
contribu'ion to the success of the so
clal by the town's electrical supply
agent, and it certainly made a hit
The whole church was filled with the
brightness of the lights, and the so
clal atmosphere was greatly lnc reased
thereby
