Monkton, N. @. r. R.-The residents OF
Ny Lady's Manor were much interested IN tns
exciting chases after sly reynard BY theeeverai
fox hunting clubsthat were entertained by Mr..
and Mrs. John Rush STREET., at their beautIIni
country home, "Farmington," in Harioro
county, for weeks hunting. On Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday the clubs with nu-
merous additions from the Manor Club: nun
ted over the hills and valleys OF the Manor
and were much pleased by the fine sport al
forded them also with the hospitality extern
ded them. The visitors were beautifully
mounted on spirited steeds. The RED COATS
worn by the men gave pleasing tone OF colo5
dale at furious gallop, while the music mace
by the swiftly running dogs was much enjoyed
by true lovers of the sport. Mrs. Harry 1.
Pearce entertained the hunters at luncheon on
Thursday, while Mr.. and Mrs. 7. Melville
Pearce enjoyed that pleasure on Friday.
Mrs. Jacob M. Pearce, who was quite Ill Tor
several weeks, is slowly improving.
Mr.. Daniel Wilhelm is having the buildings
painted and renovated on the farm he pur-
chased about one year ago. It was formerly
owned by the late Col M. W. Offutt. The re-
pairs have made quite an improvement IN the
appearance of the farm.
The monthly meeting of the w. c. I. U:
was held November 18th, at the residence OF
Mrs. Thomas Kaufman, at Monkton. Inc
president, Mrs. Everhart, presided. Reports
of the different departments of work were
given by the superintendents present.
Two evangelists have been holding religious
meetings in Monkton Hall for the past two
weeks. A report was circulated that they were
Mormons, which they deny. They simply
claim to be preaching the gospel for the love
of the work. IT'S rather refreshing to meet
such unselfish Christians in this sordid age
Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. T. Bosley, who were
lately married, are now occupying their house
on the Manor.
Mr.. George Wolfslager and wife removed
this week to the house they have rented from
Mr. O.. M. Hutchins.
The Guild of st. James Parish convened
on Thursday, November 22d, at the residence
of Mrs. Henry G. Hutchins.
The Sweet Air Lyceum has again reopened.
As the society is famous for its fire debators
would suggest that they debate the question
How to make farm life SO attractive that the
young men will remain on the farm. instead
of overcrowding the professions, where many
of them will never make brilliant successes"
The question of help to the average farmer
has become serious problem. The corpora
tions and railroads are raising the salaries
ing their prices or freight rates for the ben
eft of the farmer. How can the farmers
afford to pay as much salary as the corpo.
rations and work as short hours? And will
they be able to get help if they don't? are Just
now interesting questions, and if by unjust
discrimination the farmers are driven out OF
business, can the world manage without their
products?
Mrs. Carrie Pearce, who had been visiting
friends and relatives in Baltimore, is again at
home. ii.

farmers getting in their corn and fodder. The
latter shows more damage than usual. The
earth has been in good condition for blowing
and yet but little of this work has been done
by farmers generally. Mr.. William ID. Wight
