February has been decidedly the most
wintrish of the winter months, and for
nearly three weeks did not give us a |
thaw such as we have come to expect
every few days this season. The thaw |
got along all right last week, and teams |
from Paris Hill showed up on wheels |
Friday morning. Since then it has been |
about all thaw, and runners have pretty !
nearly disappeared. It's queer winter.
On Thursday, which, being Washing
toms birthday, was holiday for carriers

the party took dinner at the Andrews
House. The purposes of the aSsocia-
ton are purely social. There are now
twenty-six of these routes in Oxford
County. The next meeting of the asso-
citation will be held at Bethel May 3Oth.

President-J. 4. King. South Paris.
Observation-Disclosures Cole, Bryants

secretary-J 5. Hutchins, Bethel.
Treasurer-A. L. Holmes. South Paris
The supper of the Congregational Cir
Gle Thursday evening was something
out of the ordinary. 1t was in general
charge of a caterer from the Natural
Food Co, who, as was to be expected,
was serving and incidentally or more so
advertising the products of the company.
In addition to the shredded wheat bis
cult and triscuit made by the company,
he also included several other standard
food preparations. Salads, cold ham
and pastry were contributed by the
ladies' While considerably different
from the usual supper, it was thorough
ly enjoyed by the large number present.
The yestry was decorated with flags, and
the entertainment which followed the
supper was appropriate to Washington's
birthday.
As the next issue of the Democrat will
be printed on town meeting day, it is
probable that the usual custom will be
followed of printing two editions. The
first will contain the doings of the Paris
town meeting up to the time of adjourn
