eight o’clock
Supper consisted of chicken salad , all kinds of sandwiches , cake , lemonade and ice cream . Just the sorts of things it 's fun to eat , sitting on the floor , picnic fashion . In spite of the big dinner , every one ate heartily . By eight o'clock the musical program was over . Edith Thornton 's little Irish Songs received their well merited applause . Two or three amusing recitations were given and then the fortune telling began . The younger children were sent into the History room to entangle the spider web of every color twine that wound in and out all over the room .
