Allis of Wooster former county commissioner H. D. Shannon of Orrville, T. C. Hunsicker of Dalton and other guests from the vicinity of Fredericksburg.

To properly inaugurate the evening's festivities, the ladies of Fredericksburg, assisted by the high school domestic science department, prepared and served a Thanksgiving day turkey dinner. There was an abundance of turkey for each guest and there was more than an abundance of the trimmings and delicacies, which the ladies had carefully prepared.

At the close of the dinner, addresses were made by Mr. Hunsicker, the chief speaker of the evening, and by several others, including the county commissioners. The range of subjects discussed was as broad as the number of speakers. The board of trade members desired to have a community gathering and their most ardent desires were fulfilled.

Before the banquetters left the high school auditorium, where the meeting was held, the men very profusely thanked the women and the high school class for their untiring efforts and abundant success with the banquet.
