CORINTH.

Loren Emery and wife have re-
turned from an extended visit with
relatives at Barton Landing.
Mrs. Lulu S. Upham, who has
been spending the past two weeks
at her uncle's, Mr.. Granville Powers,
returned to her home at Newton,
Mass, on Thursday. Mr.. Powers
S5th birthday was quietly cele-
brated on Tuesday. Quite a num-
Der Of old friends called and wished
him and his estimable spouse
"many happy returns" of the day.
Grace Harding, teacher of the
Academy primary school, received
notice few days ago that she had
the appointment to a scholarship
in the State University. AS it was
imperative that the same be accept
ed at once she was allowed to leave
here on Monday. 1t is expected
thta another teacher will be secured
in a very short time We dislike
very much to have Miss Harding
leave us, but at the same time
heartily congratulate her on the
coveted opportunity.
A called meeting of the stock
holders in Corinth Creamery was
held at Town Hall on Monday to
listen to a proposition from Mr.. F.
H. Bickford of Bradford, to pur-
chase the stock, fixtures, etc., of the
Company. All those present rep
resenting a majority of the stock,
voted unanimously to accept the
offer of par value, the purshaser
to assume all liabilities.
Mrs. Anna L. Hodge was elected
agent to transfer the stock and it is
hoped that all who were not present
at the meeting will call on her at once
or send her their stock properly
endorsed, when they will receive
immediate payment. 1t seems to
be the concensus Of opinion that the
sale is a good thing for both parties
and it is confidently expected that
the new arrangement will infuse new
life into the business and that it
will rebound to the benefit of all
concerned. Full possession will be
taken on the LIST prox if the stock
holders act promptly.
Geo. NJ. Deaborn and wife of
Newport are visiting relatives and
other friends in town. "Bruin"
looks a trife older than he did in the
COS but is hale and hearty still.
Rev. T. D. Davies is attending
the State Sunday School convention
at Randolph this week and will
doubtless have something good to
tell us about it next Sunday. We
are pleased to learn that Mr.. Davies
is almost certain to continue in the
pastorate here.
Rev. w. F. Harding will conduct
services at Academy Hall next
Sunday evening at 100
Mrs. M. c. Munson, Frank Hut
ton, Clinton Cooke, and B. B. Serb
ner represent Cookeville at the Hub
this week.
There are rumors of several real
estate transactions in this village
and vicinity, but the deeds have
thus far failed to materialize at the
Town Clerks office.
The old telephone poles between
West Corinth and Cookeville are
being replaced by new ones. Better
keep doing so in some other sections
and also make an effort to keep the
Waits River and Washington line
from being tangled up at least half of
the time.
A. j. Macdonald, who has done
blacksmithing here for the past year,
left town somewhat suddenly last
week without announcing his des-
tination.
Geo. McCrillis has finished work
at Pike Hill and gone to Montreal
for the winter.
Robert Proctor's little daughter
Jennie is very i'll. A council of ply
sicians was held Tuesday and it is
hoped she may recover.
Quite a number of our young men
are taking jobs at Pike Hill. Aaron
Eastman and Ben Willis are among
the latest of the new recruits.
If any one is inclined to growl at
the paucity of items this week, they
will please remember that the reg
ular correspondent is gone visitin'
and the unlucky substitute has
received nary a contribution from
the outside world.
