Returns received to-day at the Offices

large farm owned by +. n. Whitcomb.
The sale was completed yesterday and
the purchaser, William harrington of
GaysviIle, viii move his family to the
place at once. Mr.. Whitcomb's plans
are not announced, although it is ex-
pected that he will move to a nearby
village. The Whiteomb property is one
of the most desirable farms in that To-
cality. Comprising some ESQ acres, il
has ample meadow and timber land.
The deal involves the sum of $500
and in the transaction, the purchaser
takes over considerable amount of
personal property. w. w. Perkins, the
Perry agency's Bethel representative, had
charge of the deal.
The woman's club is rejoicing Just
now over its good fortune in securing
a lecture May s by Ernest Harold
Baynes on "Wild Birds and How to At
tract Them" This young naturalist
first came into prominence in the United
States last summer when the "Bird |
Masque" was given at Cornish, n. H., |
with President Wilson's daughter TAX
ing leading part. At that time it |
was learned that Percy Mackay., the
author of this charming poetic drama,
found his chief inspiration for the play
in Mr.. Baynes' work with and for the |
birds. Since that time he has been in |
great demand as a lecturer and the press
notices from the places where he has
spoken show this popularity to be well |
founded. The woman's club, wishing all !
bird lovers, especially children, to be able
to improve this opportunity to know
more about him and his remarkable
work in behalf of our little neighbors, |
have placed the tickets at 10 cents for |
children and rs cents for adults, a price |
barely sufficient to cover the cost of get
ting Mr.. Baynes here.
