THAT BOYS CLOTHES.

The growing boy is voracious con-
sumer of clothes-he goes through
them so fast ordinarily that the ever
present family problem is, how to keep
Tom, or Dick, or Harry inside his
clothes in a respectable condition.
Meigs & Co. suggest that parents put
all their worries in this regard on the
broad shoulders of their boys clothing
department.. They say it is their bus
mess to do the worrying, not the boys
parents. They also invite you to bring
your boy to the store and let them try
on the new things in SUITS, to give
you an idea Of how handsome boys
clothes are this season. Blouse suits,
both Russian and sailor, and Norfolk
suits are the season leaders, and they
come in many handsome styles: Meigss
& Co. have such complete lines Of
wearables for boys that 1t is a pleasure
to shop there, such little time being
required to find just what is wanted
and in the right size. Meigs & 60. g
store is a good place to clothe your boy,
because they keep everything the boy
wears, from hat to stockings, and at
prices you can afford.

MEMORIAL DAY oBsERvANCEs.

Editor The NEwTowN BEE: What
few old soldiers there are left here In
tend to celebrate Memorial day, May
80, in as near as may be the same man
ner as.in former years. 1t will probably
be merely visiting the cemeteries and
placing flags and flowers on the graves,
starting as usual at l p. M, or In some
cases decorating by committees earlier
in the day. Anyone wishing to give
flowers for the purpose can leave them
with any of the old soldiers or at my
Office at Sandy Hook.1[W. B. Sniffen.
1t is hoped the citizens generally will re-
spond to the invitation Of Mr. Sniffen by con-
tributing flowers and assisting in other ways
to honor the memory of the soldier dead. In
this part OF the town flowers have generally
been left at the Grand Central hotel, and we
dare say Landlord Houlihan will extend the
soldiers the same courtesy, this year.
A service in honor Of Memorial day,
with special sermon by Rev O. 0.
Wright, will be held at St Johns
church on Sunday evening next.

TOWN TOPICS.
ST ROSES.
A FINE ENTERTAINMENT ASSURED

A FINE ENTERTAINMENT ASSURED.
The young people OF St Roses, assist
ed by the Lyric Mandolin club of New
Haven, and other out-of-town talent,
will give an entertainment and So
ciable for the benefit OF the church at
the Town hall on the evening of Memo
rial day. AS the holiday will bring
home many of Newtown's former resi-
dents, now away, doubtless a large
crowd of the townspeople will take
this opportunity to meet their friends,
as we'll as enjoy the unique program
of pleasures to be printed. Some Of
the features of interest will be mill
tary drill by 16 misses, who will exem-
plify some very clever movements, and
do honor to the flag; recitations both
patriotic and humorous by well-knOwn
favorites; solos and choruses by local
talent, and the never-failing mirth-
producing Mrs Jarley's Wax Works, In
which many well-known tOwnspeople
will lose their identity and look ridic-
ulous in a good cause. A feature for
music lovers will be the rendition by
the Mandolin club Of the new march
and two-step, "The Military Man, "
composed by Frank Williams Of New
Haven, a member of the club. The
entertainment will begin promptly at
8 D. m. The dancing, which will fol-
low, will be free, and cordial invita-
tion is extended to all to participate.
Light refreshments will be served.
The Mandolin club and out-of-town
talent, who have so generously offered
their services, will be the guests of Mr.
and Mrs T. J. Corbett of Queen street
during their stay in town. The tickets
will be 25c each, and few seats will
be reserved for an extra charge Of 1Cc.
The promoters promise an enjoyable
time to all who attend, and they look
forward to the generous patronage OF
the townspeople generally.
