ment, the cello, is a whole concert in

line voice, charming personality and is
sure TO make a great name for herself
Mr.. Chapman will appear i'll q double
role rs pianist and conductor. The pro-
gram will be of the most interest :
ing ana popular character. One can
hardly realize that the concert is only
about ten days Off. and all should pro-
cure their seats at once. \ great nov
city in the closing of the High school
children's program will be the songs
/ of all nations with the flags of their
respected countries.

kinds including apples. slightly aged

it winds from the front, like a clock.

A rumor was current on the street
Tuesday that the ice had left Cob
bosseecOntec, and while it hardly
seemed possible that such was the case
a party Of local fishermen was so i'm
pressed with the report that they
boarded car and made trip out to
the lake, only to find the ice apparent
" as solid as it was in January. On
inquiry being made as to the origin of
the report it was found to have been
due to an optical illusion, probably
brought about by atmospheric condi-
tions. The man who circulated the
report received a telephone call from
n party at the lake early in the morn
ing which stated that the ice had dis
appeared in the middle of the lake and
.left a great open place." which was
seen by several in that vicinity, but
when the sun got higher the erect OF
omen water had disappeared, and the
ice is still there. Cobbosseecontee IS
a lake of moods, but the open water et-
feet in solid ice is something new. 1t
&c thought by some that the lake will
bc free of ice about the first of May.
