Dear Sir: --
Your favor of the 9th inst re-

Judge of your County Court, and by
numerous citizens of Honesdale,
asking the State Highway Depart

passing through the borough out OF
fund which the Department has to
pay for experimental work. 1t is
not the intention of the law that
the main street of prosperous
| borough should be improved out OF
said fund at a cost of twelve or fif-
| teen thousand dollars, which would
about consume the amount available
from said fund in year. The State
| Highway Department is willing tC
help the borough in the improve;
ment of the main street, which will
be a connecting link between two
township roads, under the Highway
Act of May /, 1905, and its supple
ments. In this way the State viii
pay seventy-five per cent. of the to-
tai cost of constructing a road simi
lar to that constructed in an ad
joining township, but the Borough
must prepare the plans and establish
the grades of the street. The Bor
ough must pay 121 % of the cos
and the county 12h % of the cost.
There is an application on file will
the Department asking for the i'm
provement of section of the maiI
street $500 feet in length. The i'm
u provement of the section can be tax
en- up when the money under a neV
appropriation becomes available, bu
it will cost less If the main stree
through the whole length of tn,
town can be improved at one tim
and, in order to do this, an applica
cation should be filed at once will

Very truly yours,

DELIGHTFUL EVENT

FUL BAZAAR IN NJ. T.. PARLORS
OVER $500 CLEARED FROM
SALE OF FANCY AND USEFUL
ARTICLES.

The annual fair and oyster sup
per of the Whatsoever Circle held
last Thursday evening, in the par
lors of the Methodist Episcopal
church, was a decided success both
socially and financially. Much of
the credit of the affair belongs to
the president of the organization,
Miss Irene f. Long, who was ably
seconded in her efforts by the ag-
gressive work of the ladies who
served so efficiently on the various
committees.
Four beautifully decorated booths,
laden with all that appeals to mil
ady's fancy, were speedily stripped
of their finery and sweetmeats by a
"candy-hungry' and 'eager-to-buy"
crowd. These ladies catered to the
wants of the purchasers at the in
dividual booths, of which there were
four: Candy, Mrs. A. T. Bryant; as
sistants: Mesdames II. e. Bassett,
6. W. Sell, Edward jenkins, Frank
Lent. Apron, Mrs. Francis Crago
and Mrs. L. b. Swingle; Household
Mrs. e. e. Williams; assistants:
Mesdames F. Histed and Cecil Fred
ericks; Fancy, Mrs. Buel Dodge; as
sistants; Mrs. j L. Burcher, Mrs.
Emma Johnson, Miss Irene F. Long.
Miss Ida Pethick had charge of the
supper. Willing assistants were
Mesdames James ]. Bush NJ. E. ST.
mons, T. A. Crossley, F. j. Varcoe,
Isaac Hawker, H. A. Oday, Benz.
A. Brown, Miss Emma Ferber. A
number of out-of-town guests
were in attendance, among
those noticed being Mrs. Charles
Hudson, Carbondale, Mrs. Dighton
Daniels, Scranton.
The reception committee consisted
of the Rev. Will H. Hitler, d. D.,
Mrs. E. H. Clark, Mr.. and Mrs. j.
A. Brown, Miss Emma Ferber.
Music was furnished by an or
chestra composed of Miss Grace
Hanlan, James Miller and Frank
Robinson. Miss Amy Clark and
others played piano solos. Mrs. C.
F. Bullock and Mrs. n. j. Spencer
were the music committee.
The total receipts amounted to
s362.23 and it is expected that the
net proceeds will exceed those of
| last year. The money will be used
| to pay for the reslating of the
church roof Mrs. A. T. Bryant is

contest at the start, at least would
leap into such immediate favor, but,
from the looks of things now and the
comparative standing of the working
contestants it will be seen that things
are beginning TO boil
In order that the contestants who
do not win first and also because the
contest is assuming such Immense
proportions, we have decided to give
as secondary prizes, four diamond
rings of the finest grade, which will
make any young lady a proud pos
sessor
They will be given to the four
young ladies having the next highest
standing after the four Bermuda
trips are awarded. This means that
there will be something doing, so,
girls, keep the secondary prizes in
mind.
The standing of candidates is
somewhat changed to-day from what
it was last week as the contestants
and their friends seem to have start
ed to do things and from the looks
of the list, if one will glance over it,
| it is plain to be seen who is getting
the support; whether they have help
ed themselves or their supporters
have done so is a question, but we
are sure. now that the candidates
have seen how things are starting
