VALLEY VILLAGES

A marty numbering nearly 80, including
many OF the young people OF Crompton
and vicinity left the village at about
O'Clock on Saturday night and went a.
rect TO East Greenwich, where a stop was
made at the Hotel tIpdike. Here hne
supper was I'm waiting for the party ana
they did themselves justice. After an
hour passed at tho table the guests ad-
iourned to the reception rooms or the
hotel where the remainder OF the evening
was pleasantly passed I'm dancing or In
playing games. and IL was well on toward
midnight before the guests gave
thought OF the return trip. The AFFAIR was
under the direction OF committee includ-
ing Miss Alice Wood. Miss Nellie Lyons
and Frank Turner.
c. T.. SOCIAL
At the home OF Mr.. and Mrs. John B.
Potter of Fiskville the Christian Endeav-
or society connected with the Tabernacle
church held an enjoyable social on sat
urday evening The affair was attended
by about half hundred people and the
evening passed away very pleasantly
The members had come prepared 10
have a good time and I'm that they were
successful. Games of all kinds were
played and the evening passed all too
quickly and the home going time came all
too soon. During the first part or the
evening the guests listened TO the rendi-
musical numbers. At it's conclusion the
guests busted themselves I'm playing
games and I'm other ways OF social inter-
course Before the conclusion OF the even
ing's festivities the guests were served
with refreshments and the AFFAIR broke up
I'm a seasonable hour.
THAT SUNDAY LIQUOR LAW
II is safe TO say that II is all off now
that is as far as the Sunday observance
OF the liquor law liz concerned. Yesterday
was the third Sunday since the special
liuuor complainants were instructed by
the council In Warwick To attend to their
duties and see TO it that the saloons were
kept closed There is no doubt that the
complainants were out. they have been
about each Sunday but somehow the sun
day selling has continued and probably
will continue. Had any one been out look
ing for evidence they ought not to have
any difficulty i'm finding plenty of It.
Whether the movement instigated by the
valley pastors is 10 end here is al present
| hard to say but by the general appear
| ances the scheme will result the same as
several other attempts have--in nothing.
