TREE AT
LIBERTY
Fish LOthrOp Presided and
Delivered the Opening
Address

On Christmas Eve the residents of
Liberty held their Christmas tree ex-
e~rcises at the school house. Nearly 300
people attended and listened to an ex-
cellent program rendered by the young
people of that community. The pro-
gram consisted Of songs, stories, reel
tations and a dialogue. Mr.. Al Ward
and Miss Katie Butt rendered several
excellent instrumental selections. The
fine new piano was furnished by the
Anen-G Ramaker company of
Salem.
Mr.. Fish Lathrop gave the opening
address, and his remarks were well re-
ceived. Mr.. Robert Dorman acted as
Santa Claus, and he distributed the
presents from two trees, both of which
we're loaded with many useful and
beautiful articles for young and old.
Every one was well pleased, and all
voted that it was the only way to have
q first class time. 1t was one of those
old-fashioned, everybody's tree, and
there was no sect or creed represented.
Everybody in the neighborhood was
invited, and there was a present for
each child.

This is not a lecture about Parsifali

Baken's dramatic genius the hearers
imagination is quickened and illumined

becomes a present, living force. "Par-

Wholesale Larceny.

Early last month young couple were
married here, but did not take any we'd
ding tour. They decided last week it
was time for this event and also felt that
fine raiment was essential tor the success
of the trip. Thoroughly imbued with
this idea both parties started out to Sc
cure the fine apparel. The bride first
visited the Berry-Ball store and gave her
name as Mrs. Frank Johnston and said
she wanted suit for her sister who
lived at II Railroad street. She took
the suit on approval promising to return
the same or bring in the money. She de-
parted with a $3.50 suit and neither
she nor the suit has been seen since. Of
course there is no such person and the
Railroad street address was also blind.
Then she secured a suit of clothes OF
Asselin Brothers in the same manner, the
name being given there as Mrs. W.
White and the address 80 Eastern
avenue. c. E. Simanton contributed a
pair of glasses and one of the milliners
added dream Of a hat to the collection.
E. N. Randall is out pair of gloves, F.
@. Bundy has two pair of shoes on the
wrong side of his profit and loss account.
and probably several other merchants
were caught.
The couple finely bedecked in their new
clothes started for Sherbrooke Saturday
Sheriff Sulloway was soon notified of
the thefts and telephoned High Consta-
BILE Hiram Moe at Sherbrooke. who
located the couple at Bury, 80 miles
awav. The entIre matter will proba bly,
be satisfactorily settled, but the local
dealers are wondering whether they will
have to give trading stamps with the
goods.
