. SKY FARM. Kidder's new play, "Sky
Farm which ran in New York, also in
, Boston, for nearly half of the last season,
and is to be seen at the Belfast Opera House
Saturday evening, Nov. Goth, excels in its
quality what maybe called ''lighter vein, -
with only just enough of villainy to add the
, essential contrast and interest to the plot.
Its stage pictures are positive delight to
see 1t is worth while going to the play
just to look upon the sun-kissed valley be-
low "Sky Farm" and let the eyes wander
through the autumnal forest of the Maple
Maze, the third in the third act. Both pic
lures are regarded as wonderful examples
of fidelity as to color and detail.
"GHosT CLUB" PARTY. One of the
most successful children's parties of the
season was given at the home of Miss Ham,
iltOn last Monday evening, November 7th.
The guests were members of the newly
formed "Ghost Club" Each one brought
her doll, who seemed to enjoy the feast as
well as did its proud owner. The dining
room was very tastefully decorated and
many were the exclamatons ofwonder and
delight as the children were brought out to
supper. The long, low table sn one side,
loaded with good things, was of course the
center of attraction. Evergreens were the
prevailing decoration, while in one corner
was a miniature Kirby Lake where all
were allowed to sail walnut-shell boats
!: after supper was over. The ceiling was
festooned with red, white and blue, and
the patriotic note was repeated in the flags
which formed the place cards. The only
lights were those furnished by numerous
jack -o-lanterns and by roaring fire in the
open fireplace. Flashlights were taken
| during the evening, which the guests will
; treasure as souvenirs of one of the most en-
joyable evenings of their lives.
