Yet the genial host received all with a
hearty welcome. At about o'clock in

letting his whole load Of potatoes scatter
upon the ground, he was VIGOROUSLY
profane, but exclaimed in despair, clam
guage is inadequate to describe" the great
variety and the exquisite taste displayed
in the arrangement aud variety upon the
table But it is sufficient to say that it
was as only East Middlebury ladies
know how to do it. After all we're filled,
these was a general mixing up Of
young aud old, grave and gay. The
younger portion to play "striug," and
pay the delicious penalty for guessing

used to do twenty years ago" Great
credit is due to both male and female

the party, aud seeing to the wants Of so
large crowd The familiar faces Of
many who are always found ready to take
mold and make those around them happy
were in their accustomed places.
