Academy Notes.
'O7 Reception.

Friday evening, for the second time in
it's history, the OF class OF St. J. A. gave
a reception in the Academy chapel. Like
its first attempt in social way, its
second deserves the highest praise. All
the members OF the class co-operated to
give every one a good time. and seldom
has the introduction committee been
more active.
At the door the guests were received
by Misses Elizabeth Laird. Emma Hal
let, and Caddie Hambet, Earl Richard
son, Arthur Liberty and Ddles Nolan.
1t is to this able reception committee, by
the way, that the success of the whole
affair was largely due.
The programs, printed and cut to re-
semble moccaslns, were unusually odd.
Each member OF the class carried a
wreath of dark green ivy. The boys
wore Scotch bonnets of the class colors,
black and orange, while the girls had
caps of the same colors. The decora-
tions, also, were worthy OF notice. They
consisted, in the main, of strips of black
and orange bunting, radiating from a
large Japanese paraso in the center of
| the room.
During the evening there were several
marches, tor which excellent music was
provided. The speech OF greeting, de-
livered by Harold Frost, the class presi-
dent, was one of the best ever heard at a
st. ] A. reception. A short but enter
tanning and well executed program was
given in the form of play, "While
Brother Phil was Walking" The parts
were cleverly taken by Miss Hortense
Peters as Marion Marsden, Claude Good.
rich as Jack Creeham, an unwilling bur.
glar, Earl Richardson as Phil Marsdep
and Miss Helen Gray as Mrs. Marsden
The students were glad to see that
aside from the members of the school
several friends OF the institution were
present. The invitation to such affair:
is always general one for those inter
ested in the Academy, but too few tax,
advantage of it.

In the Interests of Temperance.

Editor CALIFORNIAN:
The vote on license here on the 8th
shows apparently that we are temper
ate community and large majority OF
citizens by their vote are on record as
hostile to the public sale of liquors in St.
Johnsbury. But are we as temperate as
it appears? Have we no places in the
village where young lads and boys are
exposed to and inveigled into the ways
of intemperance? There are eight
places in the village where beer is sold
from one per cent up. A regular licensed
saloon would serve tie cause of temper
ance better. In the case Of a licensed
saloon all drinking would be in veiw OF
the public--closed at specified hour. and
under the rigor OF the law. But these
dives are under no law; they sell what
they have mind to. They dare not ex-
pose their acts to the public gaze. All is
done with closed curtains. Can nothing
be done to eradicate this evil? Is there
not enough public sentiment for good
here to regulate these dives-nay. even to
suppress them, il necessary? CITIZEN.

NO one can appreciate the great
value OF the devices for
applying heat to the body
without having used them. The
electric heating pads are soft, very
light and flexible, with a remov-
able covering of eiderdown, and
unlike the hot water bottle they
maintain perfectly even tempera-
ture. In cases OF rheumatism,
pleurisy, neuralgia, etc., it is a
most perfect remedy. They can be
attached to any socket or recep-
