spencer, Jan. 1.-OrganiSt j. S r.
Coy of the First Congregational church
says that before Easter Sunday there
will be a new organ placed in the
church. The organ may not be en-
tirely new, but there will be such rad
ical changes made in the old one if
new organ is not put in, that the old
organ viii be practically as good as
new.
c. N. Prouty is at the head of the
new organ scheme, and is assisted by
many other interested members of the
church, who, together, will no doubt
see that fine organ is secured. Mon
day afternoon a representative of the
Howard Organ Company of Westfeld
was in town, and made thorough ex-
animation of the old organ. Measure
menis We're also taken. and d general
plan of what the interested people
wished for an organ was drawn up.
The organ representative gave expert
advice as to the cost of a new organ
or of the proposed changes in the old
one, as they were outlined to him.
If it is decided not to purchase a new
organ. the following changes will be
made in the old one: To have the air
pump run by a water motor; to bring
the keyboard (Which will probably be
electric), out in front of the choir, and
besides, the whole inside of the organ
will be repaired. so that the old organ
after being fixed up will be nearly as
good as new.
Organist Coy, however, is determined
10 have a new organ, as he is greatly
handicapped in his musical work by
ENgal,., l.,
under Mr.. Coy's direction, great pro-
gress has been made, and now, with
the fine singing which is being enjoyed,
the members think that it is time
new organ should be had, and. what is
more. they are bound to have it, and at
no distant date
Cupid dart flew thick and fast in
Spencer today, and at $50 o'clock this
afternoon had pierced the hearts of
four young Spencer people. The first
two to become man and wife were Mel
son Plouffet of Hillsville, and Miss De
lima Pereault of Mechanic street The

Rev. A. A. Lamy, in 81. Mary's church.
The wedding was very simple but eX-
ceedingly pretty, there being no music
whatever.
The bride was very becomingly dress
ed in a travelling gown of green broad
cloth with white lace trimmings, while
the bridesmaid, Miss Edna Coneault,
was dressed exactly like the bride, with
the exception of the trimmings, which
were pink lace instead of white The
best man was Tref1e Bose, an init
| mate friend of the groom. After the
wedding ceremonies, a wedding dinner
| and reception was given at the home of
the groom in Hillsville. The newly mar

in matrimony this afternoon were Sar-

wife. Arthur Cloutier, brother of the
