This article comes from the Jan. 19, 1922 edition of the Waterville Empire Press. It caught my eye because while social groups are not as common now, it wasn’t too long ago that they were common place and a big deal to belong to. As a child, I remember my parents belonging to some and attending events held by these social groups was a big deal. This particular event sounds like quite the gathering. I also like this article because it names a lot of members of our community from a century ago. I think this helps us think about family members who have long since left us as more than pictures on a wall.

Joint installation is a social event
