HOlO Eull sway
The past week was not equal to the pre-
viOus one in the number of its social and
other gatherings, yet it was by no means a
blank. On Tuesday evening Mrs. Stella
Baker gave a musicale in the Universalist
church in which some twenty-five of her
pupils took part. Some Of them were so
little they could hardly reach the piano, yet
the efforts they made showed Mrs. Bakers
skill as teacher Some of the older pu-
pills, especially Miss Drawer, showed finish
of touch in ''Old Folks at Home" which
drew forth well-merited applause. Little
Mamie Clark did SO well that she wen
home with basket of flowers she could
hardly carry. The duet by Margie Leh-
micke and Jimmie Spencer called for an
encore. All did well, and the entertain
ment was thoroughly enjoyed.
On Thursday evening, at the Methodist
church, an especially, pleasant time was
had. The church was filled with an appre-
ciative audience to listen to choice pro-
gram. Rev. Dr.. Dunn, Mr.. Rhodes and
Mr.. Mills gave couple of trios in excellent
time. Miss Agnes Greene gave couple of
recitals which were equal to any of her
former efforts. Miss Dexter maintained
her reputation as a vocalist. Prof. Hayner
and DR.. Van Waters, on the viola and vio-
lin, and Miss WEIGH and Prof. Hayner did
finely, and were applauded; and a piano
solo by Mrs. Belle Stanley was nicely rem
dered. But the musical colloquy, called
Mortgage the Farm" in which Mr..
Rhodes Misses Annie, Lottie and Fannie
MoOrhead and Miss Dell Lanphear and
Messrs. Rogers, Geiser and Mills took part
delighted the audience, and was received
with thunders Of applause.
On Thursday evening also, the ladies of
the French Catholic church gave a supper
at the roller skating rink, which had been
specially prepared for the occasion. The
sprightly French ladies and gentlemen made
it pleasant for those who were present, and
Mr. Frank Chartrand was power to keep
things moving. Among the ladies who took
an active part were Mesdames John B.
Pratt, LeMay, DeMers, Roche, LaviOlette,
Jourdain, Lamoine, Lupin, Billedo, all at
the supper tables; Mesdames Chartrand,
LeFleur, DeCosse and Valiquette at the
ice-cream and strawberry tables, and Misses
A. Fourier and A. and D. Pavant at the
lemonade stand. Peter Jourdain is presi-
dent of the society and Frank Chartrand
secretary.
There were some other social parties Of a
private character, in which those present
had delightful time. The coming week
will be taken up, the latter part of it, by
the State Total Abstinence convention and
the fair of ST. Michaeps church, when an
effort, and it is hoped successful one, will
be made to raise the cash to build new
school building for the Sisters of st. Joseph.
Also ON the same evening the temperance
rally at the hall at st. Michael's church,
was grand success. The speeches and
songs were equal to any that had previously
been given, while the drum corps, under
Maj. Foster, blew their flies and tapped
their drums with more than customary zest
