UNIQUE FLAG RAISING.
At the Residence of Captain Henry
 W. Penney.

There gathered at the home of Cap tain Henry W. Tenney,13 North street, last evening q happy crowd of shop mates of the captain, who were pres- ent to assist him in raising a maiirs moth pole that will be useful in the years .o come as we'll as ornamental. As It is so near Memorial day and the captain bears his title modestly it was suggested that the stars and stripes could appropriately float from the top of the pole and the suggestion was acted upon speedily. It was not the largest flag in the world but 1t was futterIng to the breeze just as gaily this morning as the costliest silkeu banner that graces any flag pole. True In the days to come there will be ofll- CT eolors fiuttering and waving to the winds. but none more proudly than the little bit of bunting with tue stars and stripes. As soon as the work was completed to the satisfaction of chief pole raiser Charley Beck ad- journment was taken to the interior of Captain Tenney's home where Mrs. Penney welcomed her guests and made a charming hostess That the as- semblage did full honor to her sp- petizing spread was not disputed by even The Goat" from Naugatuek. As toastmaster John Dillon provided the wit of the occasion while Frank Kreger and the others joined fin the general festivities with hearty good will.

The evening passed pleasantly and all hoped on leaving that they could enjoy the hospitality once more of Captain and Mrs TeI- ney.

PUPILS ENTERTAINED.
Many Enjoyed the Program at the
 MuIcahy School.

The program of the entertainment at the Mulcahy school was carried out last evening, the hall on the upper floor being packed. Without exaggerating it can be said that the work of the pupils last evening was not only a credit to themselves, but also to their instructors. for it was one of the best entertainments ever presented by the pupils of the upper grades of any of the grammar schools of the city. A number not down on the program was the ad- dress of I. A. Spencer. member of the c. A. R., who gave brief but interesting talk on Memorial day. The program rendered last evening was repeated this afternoon. and will be given again this evening.

ments of Thanksgiving evening was
that at which Miss Estelle Walker

at $50 North Fifth street. The

number and for three hours merri-
ment reigned.
Red and white were the colors and
the rooms were very tastefully ar
ranged.
At s o'clock the guests repaired to
the dining room, where a regular
Thanksgiving dinner was served. The
tables formed a most enchanting and
tempting picture. The color scheme
was very successfully carried out.
The place cards were unique and
suggestive of the occasion and the
day. pretty pen-sketch of tur-
key appeared on one side of each
card and each sketch was different
from every other, and each was an
excellent likeness of his gobblership.
On the opposite side of the place
card appeared the following parody
on the first verse of America:
MY turkey, it's of thee,
Sweet bird of cranberry,
OF thee / sing:
love thy breast and wings,
Legs, back and other things
| love thy good stufiings,
o, luscious bird"
Just as they were seated at the
tables the guests sang this tribute
to the national bird of Thanksgiving
The dinner was served in four
courses.
During the latter part of the ev-
ening the guests engaged in an in
teresting "box" contest in which Miss
Carrie Hosmer was the winner of the
favor-a box of candies.
Music and pleasant chat added tc
the pleasure of the after dinner sea
S n.
1t was a very merry evening fol
the congenial company.

CHANGE is MADE IN
THE MEMORIAL SERVICE
Mesa County Bar Association Will
Hold the Exercises at the Con-
gregational Church.-NIany
Will Attend.

Owing to the fact that SO many
people have expressed the desire to
be in attendance at the services, the
committee having in charge the de-
tails and arrangements for the Cas-
well-Brown memorial, have decided
to hold these services at the Congre-
at 2 O'Clock promptly. instead of at
the court house at the hour of

The change will be most accept
able to all as the seating capacity is
so much greater at the church than
at the court house.

lie and all are invited to attend.

changes have been made in the pro-
gram as first announced by The Sem
