THE FOURTH was pleasantly ceie-
brated at the Country club. A
large representation of the MEM
II bership enjoyed the breezes
among the pines, after the breath
less and murky heat of the afternoon.
The golf match was won by Mr.. w.
j. Torreys team. Mr.. James Linen
was first, Mr.. r. r. Brooks second.
The fireworks were remarkably fine
and went off most successfully and
hastily, because of the impending
thunder storm, but were none the less
enjoyed. 1t was better to have them
expend themselves in swift and fiery
succession than to see them spluttCr
and fizzle beneath the drenchng rain,
which soon swept down the valley. As
1t was, they leave a bright memory In
their wake, and the committee is still
receiving congratulations.
Bauer's band gave a fine concert, anu

The last of the early summer scenes
of golf events was concluded on Sat
urday. There is no scheduled plan for
today, but it is probable that a mixed
handicap will be made up from the
large number of persons who are sure
to be on the links. The Country club
has never been so popular as this sum-
mer.
1t has been suggested that a base
ball game might be played this after
noon, between the married and single
men, at the club. Whether or not this
exciting event will come off will prob
ably depend on the energy of the ther-
mometer.

many changes in the interior, chief of
which may be found in the dining

china cabinets have been built The
room is unique, however in its hang

by tapestry, and paintings of hunting
scenes. The work was done by n we'll

plcte in interest both from the beauty
Of execution and the excellence of sub
jCCt. Several of the pictures are the
snirited clever ones by Frost. The
landscape effects, the dogs and birds,
and the listening figures with guns,
form an endless source OF pleasure.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vandling are also the
pOssessOrs of some exceptional pieces
of furniture, of rare old design and
rich carving. A rd-nOor room, which
Mr.. Nandling has fitted up as a den
for himself, contains some fine speci-

The pet piece of furniture, according
to his views, is n Mauser rifle, probably
the only one to be found in this region.

Professor Hugo Munsterberg. A sec
ond factor. which is hardly less i'm
portant. stands clear before my mind
too: the help which our school found
in our homes. ! do not mean that we
were helped in our work. but the
teachers were silently helped by the
spirit which prevailed in our homes
with regard to the school work. The
school had the right OF way. our par
ents reinforced our belief in the work
and our respect for the teachers; a
reprimand in the school was a
shadow on our home life; word OF
praise in the school was a ray of sun
shine for the household. The excel
lent school books. the wise plans for
the upbuilding of the ten years
course. the hygienic care. the external
stimulations. have all. of course, help
ed toward the results: and yet | am
convinced that their effect was en-
tirely secondary compared with those
two features. the scholarly enthusiasm
of our teachers. and the respect for
the school on the part OF our parents.
