The only patriarch" that has any, got it in West Cornwall, and in regard to the missionaries we would say, charity be- gins at home The far famed Dibble Hill seems to be the Mecca toward which all cider pilgrims turn their steps. Their returning steps are not exactly in accordance with 'plumb line and rule," but look more as if they were trying to mark out pattern for crazy bed quilt on large scale.
 There is to be an oyster supper Dec. 25, at George c. Harrison's residence, for the benefit of the M. E. church at Cornwall Center. All are invited.
