The BingviIle Dance for Hospital
Renefif a Success.

Such a crowd of country folk,
gathered in from all the farms and
rural districts, as met at Bertrand's
hall on last week Tuesday evening
to enjoy the Bingville dance, has
rarely been seen in ST. Johnsbury.
There were fully 400 on hand and
not for minute did the fun let up.
The hall was decorated in harvest
fashion, quantities of corn stalks
and jack O. lantern in everywindow
with a large one bearing the word
''Bingville'' on the piano. The cos
tunes worn by Madam Brock and
her orchestra were among the best
and they aroused no end of merri-
ment when they marched around the
hall.
The prettiest thing on the program
for the evening was the dancing
of a contra dance by twelve little
boys and girls, under the direction
of Miss E1sinore Brock. The child
rem participating were Paul Farm
ham, Wesley Steele, Norman Braley,
Howard Fisk, Clinton Cary and
Carlyle Sargent, and Misses Lesley
Cady, Helen Ross, Helen Steele,
Alene Gilman, Cecil Annis land
Madeline Cary. The boys wore
overalls and the girls pinafores and
sunbonnets. Miss Helen Sylvester
| also entertained with a song and
dance in Dutch costume. The grand
| march was led by DR.. H. G. Billiard
and Mrs. H. B. Howe. The moon
light dance with all the jack o'lan-
terms lighted, was a feature of the
evening, as was also the serving of
| refreshments, red apples.
Mrs. Harry M. Cross and Mrs.
Harland B. Howe arranged the dance
and deserve all the credit for it's
success. The proceeds, which
amounting to about 500, will be ap-
piled on the fund for an elevator for
Brightlook hospital which these two
ladies are attempting to raise.

Popular With His People.

We may have been wrong in publish
ing the item from the St. Clair Repub-
lican last week in regard to Rev. Case,
our Presbyterian pastor. We had no
intention of putting out the impression
that Rev. Case was leaving his pastor
ate here, the matter of such intention
must of necessity come before the
church and Presbytery before a pastor
may become a candidate for any other
pulpit, and as we supposed of course
that all knew nothing of the kind had
come up, we thought no harm in pub
fishing the item. We have no doubt
that Rev. Case would be welcomed in
many pulpit, but we know that he is
appreciated too highly in his church
here to be allowed to leave and we trust
that this explanation will set right any
misunderstanding on the subject. We
may say with truth that Rev. Case has
been the. e.most popular and best liked
minister ever in the Presbyterian
church here and it would be with the
deepest regret that his people would
see him leave.
We understand that Mr.. Case has
planned a splendid years work with
his people and with his enthusiasm
and earnestness the church is sure to
prosper.
