Attention is again called to the fact
that the Old Maids Convention to be
given at Turner theatre Friday evening
by the Women's Literary Club is for the
benefit of the public library. All friends
of that institution are requested to make
an especial effort to get out as large an
audience as possible.

est. Paul the APOSTLE is the special
topic at the Congregational church next
Sunday morning. The first sermon in a
series of three to be given on the sub
ject OF the "Apostle to the Gentiles,''
by the Rev. S. q. Tpdyke. The b1ogra-
ply OF st. Paul is confessedly the most
picturesque and stately portion of scrip
ture, it is expected therefore that his
personality as an introduction to his
work will prove kindling theme. You
will doubtless miss it, therefore, if Won
miss the sermon next Sunday morning.
