Bentztown Bard in Marlboro

Mr.. Folger McKinsey. the "Bentz-
town Bard" gave a most enjoyable
Reading" from his poems at Masonic
Hall, Friday night.
His chief subject was Childhood
Town." in an old village with its can
dy shop, it's hitching post, its white
wash man, etc. The pure delight and
fun of the real care free country boy
of the past, was so truthfully present
ed that every one could recall those
boyhood days with clearest vision. The
average boy being the same the world
over.
"The Fat Little Girl" also came in
for her share of the old village life, but
she was more lovable than aggressive.
The gem of the evening was the
''Rose of the Old Regime" a lovely
poem, describing colonial belle whose
stately home was on the Severn and
who was queen of hearts with her
grace and beauty, as fresh and fair as
the most perfect rose.
'The Old Time Beau" who paid court
to the daughters of his earlier sweet
hearts with undiminished fervor, was
the one received with the most laugh
ter and applause as there were two or
three gentlemen in the audience, who
looked quite conscious when many eyes
were entered upon them.
The last, and one which carried
lesson, that all could well profit by,
was 'Grandfather's Reflection on
Reading the Bible" with all its lessons
from Genesis to Revelation and the
help, comfort and hope it brings to
every thoughtful reader.
MIR. McKinsey has charming man.
ner and smiling face, which captivated
the audience from the first. He has
the happy faculty of taking cheerful
view of life and none can listen to him
without catching some of his buoyant
spirit and kindness which makes him
so popular.
During the entertainment, Miss Maud
Gibbons sang very sweetly, accompa-
MED by Miss Carol Wilson, on the
piano.
At the close, the pantomine, the
''Batchelor's Dream" was enacted by
DIR. William Marbury, as the bachelor,
musing over letters from various sweet
hearts while the forms of those very
girls passed before him, in various cos
tunes, supposedly in his dream, but
they were real enough and pretty
enough to awaken any man, they were:
The School Girl Miss Inez Coffren
The Debutante. Miss Katherine
Hereford. -. -. 49,. ...... -.
The Society Girl. Miss Christobel Hill
The Indian Girl 80. Miss Carol Wilson
The Winter Girl. Miss Elizabeth Hill
The Tennis Girl. Miss Rachel Clagett
The Actress. ......... Miss Nora Hill
The Riding Girl. Miss Laura Amber
The Widow. Miss Marguerite Clagett
The Bride Miss Madaline Owens
Refreshments were sold after the
performance and the receipts were $38.
The Ladies Association are very
grateful to Mr.. McKinsley and all who
helped to make the entertainment such
complete success.-Gazette

Registration Case Decided

Judge Fillmore Beall decided last
week that j. H. Stumpner was entitled
to register as voter in Brandywine
District.
Acting under instructions of the Board
OF Election Supervisors-the registra-
ton officers refused to register Mr..
Stumpner, on the ground that his de-
claration of citizenship was not made
more than one year prior to his applica-
ton for registration. H. st. j. L..
Briscoe, member of the Democratic
State Central Committee, took an ap-
peal in behalf of Mr.. Stumpner.
The evidence before Judge Beall
showed that Mr.. Stumpner made his
declaration on October 9. 1913. The
Court decided that in view of the fact
that the declaration had been made
more than a year before the 1914 cleo
tion Mr.. Stumpner was entitled to re-
gistration and ordered his name placed
on the registration books.
