1t is matter Of common experience
that one thing suggests another. The
mention of Casco Bay suggests Bus
tins Island, Bustins suggests young
people, young people suggest love,
love suggests marriage, marriage sus.
gests cottage, cottage suggests fur
ntshings, furnishings suggest money,
and money suggests friends. Now for
the application. We have a case
where extremes meet, for starting with
Casco Bay and Bustin's, we come to
the young people, George Guppy and
Matte Mead, who last summer fell
In love, were married last winter and
were planning and building a cottage
when the people arrived this summer.
Beginning at the other end Of the Sc
quence, we start with friends Of
whom they both have many, drawn
to them by the efficient and unselnsh
services which each has performed.
These friends most gladly provided
the money. The money provided the
furnishings, and, last Friday, George,
his bride, and the furnishings met in
the cottage. The affair was a COM
plete surprise. After everything had
been put in order word was sent to
George that he and his wife were
needed at the cottage as some mis-
chief had been done during their alb
Sence. Answering the summons, they

under the circumstances, was difficult
for the man of the house, but he made
1t clear that the gifts were very well
come. The visitors left after wish
ing long life and happiness in behalf
of every summer resident, to Mr.. and
Mrs. Guppy. = s:

On Saturday some of the south side
islanders went for picnic to Orr's Is
land. TWO boats were used to convey
the party to the island. Mr.. Chas. E
Bralnard's Wychmere, carrying the
young folks and Mr.. John Jaynes
Phoenix carrying the elders. Lunch
cons were taken and eaten under the
shady pines of Orr's island. In the af
ternoon the order of sports was di
, vided. Some went on touring expe
dltions, others went in swimming, ant
the remainder played games. The
party returned to the island about
O'CLOCK, after somewhat rough triJ
Dack. Among the young folks were
the MesSrs. Benjamin Brown, Herman
Blbo, Harold FitZ and Donald Kitch
en-, the Misses Carolyn and Barbar;

Two important baseball games were
played Tuesday and Wednesday. The
first resulted in a victory for Bustin's
the score being 11-5 The famou;
world heaters have beaten one game
this season and the rubber will be
played in the near future. The sec
ond game was played with Mere Poin,
and resulted in Bustin's defeat, the
score being so.
Ihe social committee met this week
IN the grove and agreed to have die
ferent social functions through the
summer for which the dates will be

25c. Among the coming events are &

tended by all the islanders. Rev

minister and his sermon was most at.
tentively listened to. Two other
features of the service were a cello
