worthy master; Olive Harmon of lat
ter, lecturer. They have been meeting
bi-monthly in the evenings at the
| homes of the members. They will
now try monthly meetings, Saturday s
with a dinner, picnic style. How and
where to meet has been the bone OF
| contention for years in the Marlboro
grange. Some want to gather at the
hall bi-monthly at night, others in
day time, with and without dinners,
at homes with and withort refresh
ments. Strange to say the ladies them
selves have decided it, to have month
| ly meetings at homes in rotation, by
day and warm meals. They say they'd d
rather get UP one big feed a year
than to be tugging a basket every
meeting or even go hungry. It's sure
| thing the men are not putting up much
| of fight against this decision OF their
| better halves.

Strange to say nothing hunt very
| much
There is complaint on part of Citi-
zens of this village of other citizens
| journeying by rail and otherwise into
wet" territory and bringing away
with them not only symptoms of
dampness contracted there, but con-
| centrated dampness itself in various
vessels of glass and potter's clay. These
! raids seem to be the occasion of much
rejoicing on the return of said raiders
for reasons known. Parties of two to
a dozen meet, sample the dampness
and rejoice at its excellence, the latter
making itself felt BOot-legging?
What's that ? Is it bad? viii they
catch you if you do it? Maybe,
