LARGE PATRONAGE
At THE FOOD SALE
Centre Church Women Hare Many
Customers Exhibition of Ancient
Headgear Novel Feature.

The annual Thanksgiving food sale
at the Congregational chapel opened
at II o clock today with a rush. and
those in charge have been kept busy
ever since. Every kind of homemade
food, jellies, preserves, candies and
puddings are on sale. The candy table
has been well patronized and the dis
play Cf homemade candies is unusually
good. Nothing needs to be said of the
excellence Of the food as the reputa-
ton of the Centre church cooks IS al
ready established. At the fancy table
IS a beautiful display of japanese en-
broiderv, in dress designs Any that
are NOT sold VIII be taken 10 the home
OF Mrs l.. F. Adams on Chaplin street
for a few days.
Perhaps the most novel and inter
esting feature OF the sale is the dis
play of old-fashioned hats and bonnets
to which small admission is charged
and where tea is served There are
hats there that are nearly loo years
old, and one curious old padded hood
is shown that is s. years old There
are several wedding hats that date
back only 10 years that are laughable,
to say the least. The sale viii be
open until o clock.

CALL OF DISTRESS
APPARENTLY FAKE
Cry Of Help, I'm Hurt Following
Rife Shot, Brought Cct Search
ing Parties without Result.

Late Saturday afternoon between
5.3o and 5.45 clock people in the Vi
cinity Of Beatty Balestier's 5 farm in
East Dummerston heard rifle shot and
a few minutes heard the cry: ''Hclp,
] m hurt This was repeated twice
and was heard by Il party Of three
hunters and bv Young woman who
chaneed to be in the dooryard of her
home nearby
THe three hunters promptly answered
the call and hurried into the pasture
from the direction in which the call
came They called repeatedly and
searched as well us it was possible TO
do in the darkness, but received no
response.
Telephone messages were sent
through the neighborhood and before
clock q party OF 80 men had
gathered and spent three hours eoine
over as closely as possible every foot
Of the pasture, without the slightest
result They got no response to their
calls and could lind no signs OF anv-
one having been hurt. Further search
was made Sunday morning by a small
er party. but it was equally without
result,
So far as is known no one has been
reported rs missing. and the impress
sion is growing that it was a fake call
of distress.

FARMERS SAVED BY
WORKING TOGETHER
Newfane and Brookline Men Ordered
Lime in Large Quantity at Less
Cost and Freight Rate.

That farmers can cooperate success
fully was demonstrated i'm Newfanc
and Brookhnc "A short time ago. \
number wanted a small amount of lime
10 use ON the fields where they expect
to seed next season Instead Of each
sending in nm order for a ton or two
at retail price, they put all their or
ders together in one and sent in an
order for a carload, and not only oh
tanned lower prices on their lime, but
OH the freight rates also. Walter
Wright of Newfane had charge of the
sending, unloading etc. This is but one
of the ways in which farmers can co.
operate to advantage.

DEATH OF MARCHESI.
Mrs. Mary Howe Burton Writes an
Appreciation of Her Teacher.

The Clinton lMass.) Daily Item of
Nov. l9 contained the following auprc-
citation OF Madam Marchcsi IN Mrs.
Mary Howe Burton. formerly Of Brat
tleboro, now a resident Of Clinton:
The death of Madame Nathillc
Marchesi, I'M London. marks the pass
ing Of the most famous teacher of sing
ing in recent times She was woman
OF remarkable Intelligence and cxecu-
tive ability and of very high degree
OF musical talent, being thoroughly
equipped for the profession in which
she succeeded so wonderfully.
After rather brief but successful
career as singer Madame Marchesi
began teaching AT the conservatory in
Vienna. | have often heard her speak
OF her early struggles and poverty be-
fore she had won recognition She was
the mother of ten children. all of whom
dIed very young, excepting Stella. won
dertullv gifted i'm poetic talent, who
died at the age of Is, and Blanche now
a well known vocal teacher in London.
1t was my good fortune to have
two years OF study under Marchesi in
Paris. From her ! learned much in re-
gard to style and finish and understand
ing of vocal effect. Probably no mod
ern teacher has so thoroughly under
stood what is known as the colorature
style of singing and the effective use Of
the head voice
= In Marchesi : home I had the
pleasure Of meeting many Of the great
French composers, such as Massenet.
whom | frequently heard sing and ac-
company his own songs. and Ambrose
Thomas. The latter was kind enough
to show great interest in my voice and
talent, and with him | studied the role
of Ophelia, it being his wish that /
should appear at the grand opera in
Paris in that role.
Probably Marehesi counted more
successful singers among her pupils
than any other teacher in the world.
She was clever business woman, and
always availed herself of the ablest as
sistants chosen from the grand opera
and the opera comique. Her recon-
mendation and advice were considered
of great value.
