which has been at the factory for a
complete overhauling.
c. w. Durham received his new

bout for one month.
Local motorists will be interested in
the new Massachusetts auto law which
was signed by the governor last week
Thursday. 1t allows greater freedom
in the way of speed, as the limit has
been raised to 20 miles on the highway,
u miles in cities and towns and eight
miles around curves and crossings
where the operator S view is obstruct-
ed. The law carries a provision that on
the highway ear shall be timed for
mt least one-fourth of a mile when
charged with overspeeding. This will
prevent traps a few hundred feet long
such as many officials have used.

Y. M. G. A. Notes.

The regular monthly meeting of the
directors of the Y. NJ. c. \. will be
held in the association parlor Monday
evening, June 4, at 5 p. M. This will
be the last meeting for the summer,
and full attendance is desired.
Arrangements are being made for
an inter-Y. NJ. G. A. athletic meet to
take place in Brattleboro the last of
July This promises to be great at
traction to all interested in outdoor
athletics Full particulars will appear
in these columns at a later date.
About 20 members of the Life Prob
lem club of the Y. NJ G. A. are plan
ming to attend the student conference
at Mortified in June. The young men
will camp out, and do their own cook
ing while there A delightful expert
ence is anticipated. George Perry and
Secretary Cunningham will be mem
bers of the party. A committee of four
on general arrangements is composed
of Alfred Jordan, Lyman Smith, Glen
Jones, and Weed Pierce.
The first open-air service of the sea-
son will take place Sunday afternoon
on the Common. The hour is set at 5
o clock, and this will hold good through
out all the services during the months
of June, July and August. Rev. Ar
thur Jones, D. D., L. L. D., professor of
Homiletics in Colgate university, has
been secured to deliver the address. He
has an international reputation as a
most interesting and forceful speaker.
Great emphasis is being placed on the
musical side of the services this year.
L. W. Hawley has made thorough ar
for the music, including a
large chorus and quartet of horns.
Mr.. Hawley will personally lead the
singing. A 15-minute musical program
will precede each meeting, and this will
be followed by a song service. A plat
form will be erected for the chorus and
speaker, instead of using the bandstand
for this purpose, as it is too far away
from the audience. In case of rain,
the service will be conducted in the
Congregational church.

Miss Edna Phelps was at home over sun

Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Miller of Greenfield
have visited at Dexter Bonds for few

Miss Flora Bennett had very interesting
exercises in the schoolhouse on Tuesday al
ternoon. REGULATIONS, songs and readings
were given and the children then decorated
the soldiers graves in the cemetery. A
number of the children's parents attended
the exercises.
The social in the Baptist church on Me-
mortal night, with the photographic concert
following was not largely attended, as no
notice of it could be given owing to the
wet weather of the preceding Sunday. Those
present were highly entertained for about
two hours by George Lee, who has fine
instrument and collection of records.
Mr.. and Mrs. F. E. Benefits driving
horse died Saturday morning. This causes
them great loss as the horse was perfectly
safe about automobiles and electric ears
and they have no other to take its place.
