most lovely evenings of the season and the
people of Clarendon, old and young, did
not fail to improve the opportunity of
having a fine sleigh ride and a good social
time. Notice being given out that our
mite society would hold their next meet
ing at the house of Mrs. l.. II. Crossman
on that evening. Clarendon people all
knew that to go to her house was just the
place to have pleasant visit and sump-
tuous feast, turned out at an early hour to
the number of 1913. They were received
with hearty welcome by Mr.. II. Patter-
son and by Mrs. Crossman and daughter.
| This was the largest and one of the most
cheerful gatherings of the season.
The meeting was called to order by vice
president. Miss Ellen Crossman, who APP
pointed Miss Nina Smith, MIR. HarlOn
| Weeks, Miss Jennie Holden and Mr.. @. G.
| Pierce collectors for the evening, who paid
over to the treasurer fifteen dollars as the
result of their labors. A little past 8 it
was announced that refreshments would be

forget those who assisted in dispensing to
them. She at once ordered the board set

LUDLOW.
Sunday, the 9Th inst, saw no less than
five different congregations gathered for
| religious worship at this place. Truly
! goodly number for place of this size.
Our Catholic friends, we learn, have
secured the spacious and well appointed
room known as Ludlow hall, owned by our
well known townsmen, Messrs WhitcOmb
and Anterior, in which, at least for the
present, they will hold regular religious
services. A priest of their order, young
man from Brandon, conducted services
Sabbath. morning, afternoon and evening,
and very soon will take up his residence
here, and will have the parish, with all it's
interests, under his personal oversight.
| The tendency of his labOrs will undoubtedly
he to unite the parish, doing away with any
| seeming divisions which may have retarded
! lis Efforts in the past. We shall be sur
prised if in due time the present effort, SO
auspiciOusly begun, does not result in adj
| ding another church TO the four which
already grace our picturesque and pleasant
village
Those who have had good opportunities
/ of knowing the effect of Catholic church
| in the midst of Catholic population ms
numerous as in this community, do not
hesitate to pronounce 1t wholly beneficial,
more especially upon the younger portion
Of such population, over which other
| churches cannot pect To exert much, if
any influence II is safe to look with favor
upon any enterprise that shall by any
means suDscrve good order upon the Sab
bath and encourage loyalty to the whole
some laws of the land, and we sincerely
trust such will be the legitimate outcome
of the efforts of our Catholic friends in this
| place.
