NORTH CHURCH PARISH SUPPER. The
March parish supper and social held at the
North Congregational church Wednesday
evening, March 4th, was one of the most
successful of the seasons series. AS usual
supper was served at o'clock, and was a
delicious one. Mrs. Amos Clement, who
was to have had charge. was prevented from
being present by illness and her place at
the head of the supper committee was taken
by Miss Carrie NJ Cutter. The supper
tables were filled and several were oollged
to wait for the second table. After supper
an entertainment arranged for by COM
mittee from the Mems Club consisting OF
Messrs. c. O. Poor, Calvin A. Hubbard,
Charles NJ. Craig, R. f. Dunton ana Charies

Hearty applause greeted each NUMBER on
the program, each of which was rendered
admirably. The piano trio was an unusual
and most artistically played number.
Mrs. E. P. Frost's trained soprano voice IS
always heard with great pleasure, anu IL
was treat to hear Miss Hatch's rich con-
tralto in solo work. Mr.. r. F. Dunton's
address was one of the features of the
program and was thoroughly enjoyed
by old and young. Mr.. Dunton had pre-
pared map of Maine showing the location
of the timber lands and gave most
instructive talk upon their general char-
acter and appearance. Following MS
remarks the rooms were darkened and
a number of slides were shown by
stereopticon, depicting the forests and their
inhabitants, as well as the futile heids ana
prosperous homes in Northern Name. The
slides were loaned by the b. u A. X. K. Co.
and were most interesting. Mr.. Dunfon
continued his talk with a description OF the
locality yearly visited by the Belfast party
of which he has been a member for num-
Der of wears. For ten years Mr.. c. F.
Hazeltine, Judge George E. johnson and
Mr. Dunton have hunted in the vicinity OF
Stacyvile and Mr.. Dunton gave most
realistic glimpSes of camp life, incidentally
bringing out some of the personal character
istics of the individual members of the
party, much to the amusement of the audi
ence. The story of how Mr. Hazeltlne shot
and brought into camp the moose whose
head makes so imposing an ornament III the
probate court room was followed with
much interest, as was also the tale OF now
| Mr.. Dunton got "Brer Bar last fall. This
recital was accompanied by two inmitable
sketches by our local artist, Mr.. P. A. San
| born, illustrating the triumphal procession
which brought the bear into camp, and the
scene at the camp upon their arrival. The
male quartette followed Mr.. DuntOn and
gave as an encore the popular old melody
"Nellie was Lady" MIR. Parker's solo
was finely rendered, and one of the hits OF
the evening was made when, in response to
the applause given him, his little son Bonnie
, came forward and sang, in his sweet little
voice, "A Little Child Shall Lead Them"
MIR. Parker was obliged to respond again
and gave "Who Shall be King" Mrs. S. A.
Parker gave taking little reading, and her
encore was a dialogue given by her little
four-year-old son, Carroll, and herself, that
completely captured the .audience. The
| final number was selection on the piano
player which Mr.. Pitcher operates SO skill
| fully. The program was highly enjoyed
