when they met at her home Tues
day evening, 10y serving dainty re-
freshments in honor of Mrs. e. M.

two active workers, who met with
the Society for the last time this
winter, as both will leave Laporte

Preparations for moving are rap

pect to leave Lap for Sayre the

ham has already established good

been located the past summer. The
people of Laporte will generally re-
gret the departure of Mrs. Dun

been exceedingly popular in social
circles, and in all that pertained to
the progressiveness of our village.
Mrs. Durham was Secretary of the

Pupils have no right to absent
themselves from the school when
the Bible is read, according to an
opinion by Judge kunkel, handed
down in the Dauphin county court
Monday, refusing mandamus
against the school directors of Will
Jamestown in which citizens of the
borough objected to the directors re-
tusing to allow pupils to enter the
schools after the Bible was read in
the morning. The Bible, it is said,
is read by direction of the school
board, and in the petition it is stated
that some of the scholars refused to
attend during that period. Judge
Kunlei holds that the court has no
power to compel the school board to
permit some scholars to attend school
at different time from that pre-
scribed by the board.

A Charitable Euterpriss..

Good VIII farm Is known by every
Patron in the state of Maine. 1t Is
supported by benevOence and Is a
home for about 115 boys and 80 girls
at the present time. The Patrons of
Maine erected what is known as
Grange cottage" on this farm, which
accommodates about fifteen girls.
Maine Patrons are raising scholar
ship valued at $4,000, the proceeds of
which are to be applied to pay ex-
penses of the girls WHO occupy Grange
cottage" The money thus contributed
not only feeds, clothes and educates
one girl. but many, for as soon as one
leaves another takes her place. This
certainly l.. a most worthy charity and
one that can well engage the attention
and enlist the sympathy Of Maine Pa
irons.

A Question and an Answer.

When demit card becomes void what
must be done for the holder of the demit
to get into another grange? Is a person
who holds a demit prevented from join
ing grange?
When demit becomes void, as Il
does after one year, the party seeking
admission to another grange would
have to join as new member. A
lapsed demit is worthless. The differ
ence between demit and withdrawal
card is that demit sewers ones rela.
ton from the grange where he be-
longed, while a withdrawal card sewers
his relation from the Order; but a
lapsed demit and withdrawal card
are on the same plane, and in either
case Il person seeking to join another
grange would have to join as new
member.
