heat and all sorts of coniectures are
made as to what tomorrow will bring
forth.
For the past day or so there have
been all sorts of rumors of destroyed
ballots and lost ballot boxes, but when
traced down, these reports have been
found to be without foundation.
The meeting tomorrow promises to
be sensational, there being some pre-

same as on the last trip, my pslns es-

the lessons OF that last trip. The last

This time we shall go farther west

benefit of the easterly drift of the ice.

last expedition
Another change is that will have a
stronger advance party than on the
last trip. so that when we get ready

and sledges enough. The last time
there were not enough to load five
sledges."

The Feast of Pumpkins.

A pretty variation on the regular
harvest home" festival was made
last year by the young people of a
church in one of our smaller cities.
They called it "The Feast of Pump
kins," and that useful and cheerful
vegetable formed the basis of the
whole affair. The hall was decorated
with two shades of yellow bunting
the deep orange-yellow Of the pump
kin and the lighter yellow of the
Hubbard squash. Where the bunt-
ing was festooned it was caught up
with punches of corn. The husks
were torn open or turned back, show
ing the yellow grain on the cob. The
mattresses were all dressed in yellow,
with a conventionalized squash flower
made of tissue paper in their hair
instead of cap. At intervals were
great "Jack-o lanterns" made of the
pumpkins with electric lights inside
instead of the traditional candle. The
tables were ornamented with pump
kins followed out so as to form great
bowls. These were filled with autumn
leaves and flowers. The water for
these decorations was put in bowl
which was placed inside the pumpkin
The menu included (beside the regu-
lar harvest supper fare) such delica-
cies as baked pumpkin, pumpkin pud.
ding, pumpkin bread and pumpkin
ice! The last named was very yel-
low orange ice frozen in individual
pumpkin moulds. At the table where
were sold the fancy articles and
souvenirs of the occasion, there were
pretty little pincushions made to i'm
itate pumpkins, and bonbonnieres
which were china "Jack-o' Lanterns
filled with yellow candies.-Harper's
