wood, and l fingered amongst the
trees to listen. Are YOU sure you
haven't been seen, Ronnie? Are you

He laughed, the easy, confident

another cigarette. Lets go inside

round her. her head resting on his
shoulder. They loved each other, this

L. I. HANDY TO LECTURE HERE
Will Give His New Lecture Ibid He
Die and Live Again" For Benefit of
Presbyterian Church of Smyrna.

Hon. L. Irving Handy, former
congressman, has been secured by
the ladies of the Presbyterian Church
OF Smyrna to give his new lecture
Did He Die and Live Again" in
Smyrna on Friday evening, April
the 9Th, for the benefit of the church.
An admission of 25 cents will be
charged. Tickets will be in the
hands of committee who will can
vass the town. The lecture is de-
clared to be Mr.. Handy's finest pro-
duction and those who have heard
and enjoyed our SILVER tongued
orator of Delaware" will be pleased
TO hear him again. Mr.. Handy is
engaged to deliver this lecture in
the Witherspoon Building in Phila-
delphia. Recently he gave it to a
large and appreciative audience in
Newark and the Post in commenting
on it says cit was a most masterful
presentation of the fact of the resur-
rectiOn. From beginning to end he was
the cool lawyer examining the evil
dence and then with the judgment of
the jurist coming to an unbiased deci-
sion. 1t has been many days since New
ark had the treat she did in Mr.. Han
dy's lecture. 1t was especially appro-
pirate that this be held at the College.
The students were highly pleased.
Had it not been in the College they
would probably not have heard this,
the best lecture of the year. -
