tell the church-parade story.
''His men were drawn up for church

somewhat like the old-time "Conse-
quences," is very interesting and
amusing game. The players sit in a
circle, each one being provided with
a pencil and paper. The company is
then hidden to write the name of some
book which has been recently pub
lished. Each paper is then folded
over and passed to the player on the
left, who, without seeing the title of
the book, writes the name of some
living author. The papers are then
folded again and passed to the left,
and each one writes the opinion of
the press, signing it with the name
of some newspaper or magazine This
in turn is folded down and passed on
and another review added, and SO con-
tinued until each player has expressed

AT this time of the year, when every
one is busy selecting seeds and plants
for the years planting it is a good
time to vary the monotony by letting
each member of the family select a
flower or plant from the catalogue and
see how many and how funny tele-
grams he can make by using the let
tiers as they come in the name of the
flower, letting each letter begin some
word and all to make a telegram, as,
for example, take the word lily: Let
Ida leave Yokohama This shows how
they may be made. The players may
sign their own names or one formed
by using the last letters in the name
of the flower. This is a great deal of
fun. Try it some stormy day or in
the evening.

To Be Fittingly Observed
Next Wednesday,

The annual commemoration OF the
sufferings and brave deeds of our
patriotic dead is again at hand and
the recollection of all il has cost To
keep our starry banner floating over
land Of free homes and schools
makes our hearts tender and grateful
while we pause In our busy life to
strsw blossoms over "the low green
tent whose curtain never outward

The lessons Of the day inculcate a
deeper love and reverence for the
Union, a broader. more practical
altruism. The teachings Of Memorial
Day should reach deeper than to mere
ly remind US of the debt of gratitude
we owe the men who died for the
Union. Patriotism is an assembly Of
affinities making us discern beyond
the life Of the family grand and
broad common life in which we have a
part.

join in paylnga merited tribute Of
gratitude to our soldiers, both living
and dead, remembering that the time

veterans are so depleted by advancing

"What Women

AT Loveday Opera House
Tuesday Evening Next.

Is the title of Harry Jackson's s latest
and greatest play presented by the
Holden Brothers Company. In speak
ing Of the play the critics throughout
the country acknowledge that Mr..
Jackson has succeeded In getting
much Of the.color of Charles Dickens
great story, DaYid Coppertield, upon
the stage. The play Is not direct
dramatizatiOn of that novel, but
founded on the principal Incidents.
The action being placed about James
Steerforth, Rosa Dottle, Emily, Mic
awber, Peggotty, and Uriah Heep and
Hammond Peggotty, the rough young
fisherman, in love with Emily, the In
nocent young woman who forsakes
him for the promises Of Steerforth.
later TO he cast aside. The punish
.ment Of SteertOrth, when he Is drown
ed in hand to hand fight in storm
with Hammand Peggotty, with few
other scenes in which Mr.. Jackson
has deserted Dickens, gives the play a
true melodramatic flavor. The comedy
element is supplied by the Micawber
family. The scenic effects are excel
lent, the parts are well played, and
the success o: the play is demonstrated
by the applause and hearty laughter
at each performance. "What Women
VIII do" will be seen at the Leveday
Opera House on next Tuesday night.

ESCAPE PLOT FOILED.
Twenty five Inmates Of Railway Re.
.format0ry We're Suspected.

A bold plot of twenty-five of the
most desperate inmates of the Rah-
way Reformatory to break from that
institution Sunday, was foiled be-
cause another inmate heard of 1t and
gave a keeper a tip.
The plot was said to have been to
break away while the men were being
taken to the chapel and get through
a window in the corridor. The men
are under light guard while being
taken through this corridor, and
there are no guards outside.
When the officers heard that there
vas something up they put an ex-
ira guard on the men and stationed a
platoon of armed guards outside the
building. Anyone trying to get away
would have to face a line of rifles.
The men were able to see this ar
rangement and consequently made no
Fattempt to carry out their plans.

A PLAY THIS SEASON
Plans Discussed at Last Nights
Meeting of Perth Amboy
Lodge, B. P. O. E.

At the regular meeting Of Perth
Amboy Lodge, B. P. o. Elks, last
night, it was decided to hold Il social
session and an entertainment this
winter. Committees will be appoint
ed at once by Exalted Ruler John X.
Sheehy and the arrangements will be
completed rapidly. The entertain
ment will be a drama or a musical
comedy, although a comic opera was
discussed a short time ago. In past
years the Elks have always held min
strel shows, which were huge sue
cesses, but the members declare that
the entertainment this winter will
eclipse all previous affairs.
On December 29 the local lodge
will go to Stapleton, S. L., to attend
the dedication ceremonies of the
Elks' home of that place, which has
just been completed. A committee
was appointed to complete the ar
rangements for the trip. About

dates will be properly received at the
next session of the lodge.
