five cents one could receive letter
from far-off friend. The contents of
these missives pleased the receivers and
brought forth many laughs. This was
kept by Florence Skinner and Lizzie
Palmer. The lemonade booth was well
patfonized. Perhaps the dry wit of
the entertainer was the cause. This
was presided over by Miriam Howard,
Mary Austin and Ada johnson. The
food table contained a feast to the eyes
of the housekeeper Those who con.
tributed TO this showed that they did
not need to attend a school of domestic
science to complete their education in
practical housekeeping. 1t is under
stood that those who had the oversight
of this booth will be kept in mind by
young men who hope to maintain some
time household where good cooking is
a feature. Charlena Hall, Dorothy Nor

mittee in charge.

HOT AIR IN PLENTY.
st. Johnsbury Papers Have Much to
Say About Basketball Series.

Both st, ,Johnsbury papers are filed
with furious fulminations this week on
the outcome of the basketball series
between that town and Brattleboro.
Under a group picture of the Company
d team in the Republican appears this
childish caption: "Billy Gray's In
dams who frightened Brattleboro s
hired professionals into being even
meaner than usual" Most of the lily
white town S editorial broadsides are
aimed at the Gloversville players, par
ticularly the Wachter brothers and
their unsavory reputation which has
long been byword in the sporting
world. There are yelled innuendoes
regarding Brattleboro's unsuccessful
attempt to buy the referee, and slurs
galore on the local men who were in
terested in the team s management.
All of this stuff is of course pure rot
but it is about what should be expected
from st. Johnsbury.
While the st. Johnsbury papers con-
tain no hint of internecine strife
among the fans of that way-station,
private advices indicate that there is
a difference of opinion as to the way
the team there has been managed. At
any rate the basketball association was
reorganized at a meeting last Saturday
evening and the new directors s'heart-
lily endorsed the management of w.
7. Gray. Whether the retiring direc-
torate did the same thing is not stated.

1000 PEOPLE GO TO
HIGH SCHOOL FAIR
Seniors Expect That More Money Than
Last Year Will Be the Result of
Yesterdays Affair - Pretty
Decorations.

Bigger, better and buster even than
its predecessor, the second annual high
school fair for the benefit of the Wash.
ington fund was held yesterday after.
noon and evening in Festival hall un,
der the most favorable circumstances
Fully 1000 people attended the fair
and while the pupils are yet unable .
tell how much they made II is firmly
believed that the amount of last year,
$3.50, will be exceeded. Over $3.50 was
taken in admissions at Is cents a per.
son and the dancing brought in $50
more. The hall itself was stunningly
decorated with college banners, bunting
and incandescent lights of various col.
ors and the booths from which different
kinds of articles were dispensed were
unusually pretty conceits. Fred L. Ken
dali of Boston gave an entertainment
both afternoon and evening. Fully
200 young people enjoyed the dance
which brought the event to close at
midnight last night. Music was fur,
nished by Wales S orchestra.
One seemed at loss where to go on
entering the hail. Every nook and cor
ner was made attractive and each place
seemed to invite one S attention. The
central booth was the fancy table. 1t
was trimmed in white and morning
glories were entwined around the posts
and along the sides. This was in
charge of Margaret Barber, Ella Ad-
ans, Ellen Sherman and Katherine
Brockington. The ice cream booth was
under an arch of crimson roses and was
in charge of Minnie Haigh, Minnie
Leitsinger, Una Rice and Lena Young
The silhouette parlor furnished no end
of fun for those who inspected its vag-
aries Here were made paper figures
of a2most anything one could name
Hylahd Tasker, Stewart Brown, Sylvia
Derry, Nellie Fem and Marion Allen
took care of this department A grab
bag that was an ingenious affair at
tracted much attention and proved a
source of no end of amusement to many
1t was constructed something like the
other booths except for a large hole
about three feet from the floor. Through
this opening a parrot made its appear
ance. On placing a coin in its beak
the parrot would dive into a pile of
bundles and bring up prize in its
mouth for the customer. This booth
was in yellow. Edward Webb, Ralph
Howe and Robert Kenney had the over
sight of this affair.
The flower booth, trimmed with lau.
rel and pink chrysanthemums, was per
haps second in order of merit. 1t was
in charge of Ruth Brown, Nina Gilman
and Robert Burnham. The candy booth
was decorated with laurel and red pop.
