LIBERTY r. is presumed that this little
town is keeping pace with other parts of the
universe in this Immediate vicinity. The
dry weather is bad for the crops, but good
for the haymakers; so that whatever else
may fail US we have secured and are secur-
ing very large harvest of very fine hay.
The quadrupeds are thus well provided for,
if we bpeds are compelled to get along
without apples the coming winter. as most
of Us did the last. Though the caterpilars
stripped our apple trees of all their foliage,
thereby blighting ALL or nearly all, the fruit,
nature and natures God has restored all the
foliage more beautiful than before. Every
tree has leaved out again, and in some few
instances the trees have re-bossomed. We
learn that such is the case in the orchard of
John Fuller, and j. l.. Knowiton has tree
on one limb of which there is one large ap-
pie and several blossoms. The Sunday
evening lectures Of Mrs. Mary Kent Dayey
at the church have been very interesting
and instructive, but not as well attended as
they should have been. The last lecture of
the coulse will be next Sunday evening
subject Travels in Russia. 90. The event of
the week was the concert given at Hall St.
George by the young people. The talent
was made up of sojourners from abroad ard
residents of the village in about equal parts,
and the concert was pronounced by all to be
very fine indeed. There We're no professions
ais among the singers, but Mss Leila La
tetra OF New York is a professional teacher
of voice culture. Charles Pulcter also of
New York. is teacher of instrumental
music ana hue aCCompanlSt. The others
from abroad, who took part, We're Miss Edna
Dean Pulcifer and Miss Mabel Carpenter of
New York, Mrs Lillian Edgley of St. Paul.
Mimi, and Mr.. Ned Taylor OF Detroit.
Mich. The local talent was Walter y. Car
glll a member of the Glee Club at the Uni
Verslty Of Maine (who took the leading part
IN the cantata entitled The Frogs Of Wind
ham" at Old Town last winter and received
many compliments from all who heard lt),
Ralph /, Morse, member of the Glee Club
at Bates College, Willie l., Cargill, who is
member OF the choir of the Universaist
church at Pittstield during the term of NJ. G.
l. at that place where he is student, and
John Sanford of this village, a rising young
singer much thought of here and one who
will be heard from in larger musical circles
later. He has d pleasing voice and has a
graceful, easy manner and has sung III the
choir here for the past two years. And last,
but not least Mrs. Emma j. Cargill, who is so
we'll and favoraby known here and through
out the western portion Of this county as a
me singer to need no encOmiumS from any
one. With this array of talent the concert
conld not help being first class. They were
also assisted by Miss Alfaretta Schenk,
fine elocutionist from New York. The credit
for the fine entertainment we enjoyed last
