was summed up in the big meet that
was held Friday afternoon.
Over one hundred children took part
in the races and games at the closing
events. Interest was great during the
whole programme, and though the
girls had to be coaxed to enter their
races. there was just as much neces-
sity for keeping them out of the way
while the other events were progress

over two hundred at the sports. Fol-

This brings to close the play

Central section, and in the Laurel Hill

when the schools shut down for their
summer vacation next year.

Mrs. Marilla NJ. Kicker is determln-
ed to figure in New Hampshire poll
tics as a candidate for governor at
the polls. Why? Because the wicked
eounsels and practices of The Man
chester Union have debauched that
state to the degree where only a wom-
an can give it a proper housekeeping.
We would like to see Ma Kicker with
her sleeves rolled up and her skirts
tucked up hopping out the vile den of
the Manchester contemporary and
emptying her Stops in the editorial
columns. What an agreeable change.
