FIRST ML
Banquet. 2 Held Last Nght Is a
Thoroughly Successful and
Most Enjoyable Affair
The first annual banquet of the
Sayre Business Men's Association,
which is a few weeks less than a
year old, was held last night in
John R. Casper’s handsome ani
well appointed dining hall at No
226 Desmond street, and it can be
unhesitatingly and truthfully as-
serted that“few, if any, of the sim.
ilar events given in this place in
recent years, will equal it in the
outburst of good fellowship and
perfect harmony which prevailed
throughout the-entire evening.
There was not a single hitch.
All the details had been carefully
attended to by the various commit
tees, and when the organization
and their invited guests sat down
by Caterer Kasper there was not a
single thing missing which would
in any way mar the pleasure of the
event.
Twenty-seven puests had been
invited and nearly all were present,
including President Lawrence of
the village of Waverly, Secretary
Decker of the Athens Business
Men's Assoclation, Hon. L.T. Hoyt
member of the assembly from this
county, Dr. Charles H. Ott of the
Packer hospital, Jos. W. Beaman,
Esq, of Athens, and other repre-
sentative business and professional
men of the three valley towns
Covers hid been laid tor go and
nearly every place at the tables was
occupied. A collation prepared
under the direction of John R
Casper, Sayre's well known res
tauranteur, was served with neat
ness and despatch, while the iaspir-
ing strains of McGuffic's string
orchestra added greatly to the
enjoyment of the diners. Every
business interest in the banner
town of the valley was represented,
and when the guests and members
of the organization departed for
their homes there was a unanimous
sentiment that the four or more
hours which had been speat in
feasting and speech making were
hours well spent and that the
results therefrom will be of inesti-
mable benefit to not only those
who were present but to the citi
zens of Sayre generally.
Those who responded to toasts
cannot be complimegged too highly.
The toast list contained seven
numbers, and while it would take
too much space to, give even a
short synopsis of the address of
each speaker, it is an admitted fact
that each subject was most appro-
priate to the occasion and was
handled in every instance in an
intelligent and forceful manner,
The immediate needs ol the bor-
-|ough were brought to the attention
of those present by logic traveling
hand in lind with eloquence, while
excellent suggestions for the ad-
vancement of the association were
received with much enthusiasm
Dr. C. J. Cummings occupied
the toastmaster’s chair and acquit
ted himself in a most creditable
manner, his introduction of the
various speakers being punctuated
with many sallies of wit, which at
times brought down the house.
Those who responded to toasts are
as follows : “Organization, the
Watchword of the Times and Age,"
C. C. West; Organizatiod and As
sociation,” M. H. Sawtelle : “The
Benefits of Organization,” D. Clar
ey; "Municipal Improvements,” |
A. Samuels ; “Opposition and Com
petition,” T. J. Leahey; “Cash
Versus Credit,” A. P. Wieland ;
“The Retail Merchant,” Frid E
Seager; “Equal Taxation,” Wm
M. Cross.
After the regular toast list had
been concluded several were call. d
upon who made ringing speeches
of an impromptu nature which
were well received and highly
“NPORTANT QUESTION
Banquet Speakers Were United
in Supporting Plans for a
Sewer for the Borough
Among the speakers at the ban-
quet last night who tpuched upon
the subject at all it was the consen-
sus of opinion that the sewer pro-
ject is the most important question
which confronts the citizens of
Sayre at the present time. The
question was referred to by several
of the principal speakers and in
each instance the Business Men's
Association was urged to give the
project its undivided support. The
suggestion was made that the
association should appoint a com
mittee to wait on the borough
council in an advisory capacity, and
urge such legislation as is deemed
indispensable to this municipality.
Rev. J. L. Shanley, of the Church
of the Epiphany, in a brief address
touched the keynote of the quess
tion when he said that timidity
should give way to boldness and
that public improvements should
be installed in the borough and the
town bonded in such a manner that
posterity would be compelled to
pay at least a part of the cost. The
suggestion is an excellent one for
the council to give its attention. A
little more of that quality which
makes the successful speculator on
the part of those in authority
would give to this borough many
things which at the present time it
