Flower Mission Day.

The w. c. T. L. observed their annual
flower mission day on last week Tues
day at the home of their president, Mrs.
II. n. Turner. Each year on some day
in June the Union collects flowers and
distributes them among the sick. The
day is observed in memory of Miss Jen-
ME Cassidy, a society girl of Louisville
who became a hopeless invalid. Won
dering what she could do to make lite
brighter for other shut-ins, she conceived
the idea of sending flowers to the sick.
at one time Miss Frances Willard visited
her and became so impressed with the
helpfulness of the work she was doing
that she decided, then and there. to add
flower department to the work of the
Union and asked Miss Cassidy to become
superintendent. Every year the Unions
observe Miss Cassidy's birthday in this
way.
The program given consisted of devo-
tional exercises led by Mrs. Turner and
Rev. A. H. Gage; a sketch of the origin
OF the mission by Mrs. Turner; remarks
by Mr.. Gage in which he related personal
experiences in settlement work and ex-
planned the work of the fruit and flower
mission; and musical selections by Mrs
Don c. Stiles, the Donna orchestra, and
Mrs Ida 7. Brooks. Mr.. Turner gave a
short talk in which he told of the pres
sure which has recently been brought to
bear upon the Fairbanks corporation in
one OF the states OF the union by the
liquor league. The league demanded an
assessment of $50 from the corporation
to assist them in their work. In reply
Mr.. TUNER wrote that never while he Is
manager shall the Fairbanks corpor-
alton do anything to advance the inter
ests of the liquor power. He sent the
letter to Samuel n Brown, president of
the corporation, who upheld MIR. Turner
in all he had said.
Refreshments were served and de-
lightful social time enjoyed. The house
was decorated with flowers and Miss
Wizards picture was surmounted by a
large bunch OF syringas. After the meet
ing the flowers were sent to the hos
pitfalls.

MIR. Kingsley Resigns. :

Edward A. Kingsley, for three years
teacher of music in the public schools
and Academy has resigned the position
and has gone to Westhampton, Mass,
where he and his family will spend the
summer. Next year he plans to open a
studio in Steinert hall, Boston, for pri-
vate work and will teach three days
week in the public schools of Lexington
and Belmont.
Mr.. Kingsley's departure is real loss
to the musical interests of the town.
His school work has been of high
order and the stand he has always taken
in presenting only high class music has
developed love for what is really good
among his pupils and audiences. In adj
dition to his school work he has had
large number of private pupils who have
only words of regret for his decision to
go back to a great musical centre.
