X FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION.
 We trust all in this vicinity will know and remember that the members of the W. C. T. U. of this and New Preston Hill society expect to furnish an entertain ment at their rooms on New Preston Hill, and outside, on July 4, commencing at II o'clock a. m., which will be pleasing, instructive and thoroughly satisfactory to attend, for the ladies will manage it. Dinner will be served from II a. m. to 3 D. m, at a very nominal price. Ice cream and lemonade will be sold separately from the dinner from l 1 o'clock till night. At D. m.,a sale of useful and ornamen- tai articles will take place in the unions rooms. At ?. m, an address will be given by Mrs Rice of Boston, Mass. At 6 D. n., an address by Rev Mir Ludding- ton of Worthwhile will be given and short speeches from others present will be made. In the evening John A. Hatch, with sufficient corps of assistants, will give an exhibition of fireworks purchased for the occasion. Distinguished gentle men from abroad have consented to favor the people assembled with appropriate remarks. Prominent among them will be Bernard Peters, editor of the Brook lyn Times, Brooklyn, N. Y. Altogether we believe it will be grand day spent on New Preston Hill and we hope such crowd will be seen there as has not been before in many years.
