The southwestern sky is particularly
brilliant just now, during the first two
or three hours after sunset. Four plan
cts, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Mars, L
are quite closely grouped, and this week |,
will add crescent moon TO the display.
On the evening of the 18th the moon Ii
and Venus, Jupiter and Saturn will be
quite close, forming group such as is
seen only at long intervals. s
The winter schedule on the Grand /
Trunk went into effect Nov. I'd so quiet '
" that but few knew it until some days
after-in fact, few knew that the winter
schedule was not already in effect.
Only two trains are changed, the after
noon train down, popularity known as
"the express" being now due at 4:44 in
stead of ago, and the Sunday paper
train at 916 A. NJ. instead OF 1922 as

Mrs. Lucy Ann (HalD Barrows died
on Monday of last week at her home on
Gothic Street. Mrs. Barrows, who was
y wears of age, was the daughter of
Mai. Cyprian and Lucy (Brett) Hall, and

Death was due to paralysis. She leaves {
two sons, Oscar Z. Barrows of this viii i
lage, and Edgar F. Barrows of the ly
Porter neighborhood, also an adopted I
daughter. Mrs. Albert p. Abbott, with
whom she made her home. The funeral
on Wednesday was attended by Rev.
DIR. Brooks of the Congregational /,
Of the oldest members. II
The leaving time of trains, as given at
the head of this column, is correct, &C
cording to the latest reports. Whether
il will be correct another week is an l
other question. 1t is pretty hard keeping
up with the changes made by the rail- !
road. of which there have been no less
than three in six weeks. The changes are =.
made faster than the new timetables can
be printed, so that Out-of-date ones have
to be left hanging in the stations. The a
Democrat office last week got out new l
time card, which was supposed to be v
correct, but it was later discovered that 7
the forenoon train had been changed {
from 9:35 to $50. A card which is 5
correct may now be had by calling at n
this office.
The second meeting of the Universalist
Good Cheer Society was held with Mrs. v
J. ID. HAYNES last Wednesday afternoon g
with thirty-six present and very enjoy j
able afternoon was spent. The next I
meeting will be held Wednesday after s
noon of this week at o'clock with Mrs. {
A. d. Park and it is hoped all interested S
will be present 1t is the purpose of 4
this society to take in sewing to do, and I
If any have any which they wish to hire
done they will find this society glad to
do il and perfect satisfaction guaran- !
teed. The first supper and entertain
ment of the society will be held Thurs +,
day, Nov. 81, at which time Rev. W. W. !
Hooper is expected to be present. Fuller q
particulars of the supper will be given
next week.
After two weeks of extreme suffering U
with Group and acute bronchitis Nelson $
Prentiss Maxim passed away Tuesday at
the age of Z years and IL months. Mel
son was the youngest son of Walter p. .
Maxim and by his exceptionally pleasant {
disposition, attractive and quiet manners :
he became general favorite of old and i,
young. His demise was shock to the =
community and enlists great sympathy J
of friends for the father who was nearly !
Frustrated by this sad and sudden be- .
reavement, and for all the relatives. The !
funeral occurred on Thursday and was
attended by a large concourse of people,
Rev. DIR. Brooks officiating. The casket !
was entirely covered with beautiful
floral offerings contributed by relatives
and friends.
For all the present day telephone ex-
element, we haven't all learned as yet
how much travel the telephone may
save us-as South Paris business man
found out the other day. He came
down town on business, and on opening
his mail found that it was necessary to
telephone to Portland at once. He &C
cordingly went to his office-about half
a mile-and did his telephOning, and
