February 17 Society Meeting

Well, Margaret and I had a nice meeting. The fact of my poor planning, Wednesday was Ash Wednesday, probably didn't help attendance. While we were waiting to see if anyone else was going to show up, Margaret got a little more work done on the Barbershop arrangement of the song the "Chestertones" Quartet hopes to sing at this year's Conference. While Margaret worked, I read a few pages from What's Wrong With The World. When we realized no one else was going to show up, we talked a bit about Margaret's recent appearance (as the lead) in a locally written and produced play, The Fall Collection. The play was presented at Ohio University, Chillicothe (OU-C). The OU-C theater is a very nice venue. (Just a thought now, maybe we could get them to present Chesterton's The Surprise.) We finished up taking turns reading from Dave Armstrong's new book The Wisdom of Mr. Chesterton: The Very Best Quotes, Quips, and Cracks from the Pen of G.K. Chesterton.
