Saturday morning soon after ter
o'clock the company assembled at the
Dorset Inn to start for the mountain
climb. Black Rock was reached about
noon and after enjoying the scenery
the company descended to the old
quarry and prepared dinner at the
spring. All returned late in the after
noon tired, but having had good
time.
At eight o'clock in the evening the
young men and boys of Dorset gath
cred with the Williams College men
around the fireplace at the Country
Club for an evening together.
The two meetings on Sunday at II
o'clock and at o'clock completed the
campaign. Mr.. Heddon and Mr.. Good
rich spoke in the morning while four
of the young men, including Mr.. N.
N. Love, the school superintendent,
formed quartet and rendered several
selections.
The other meetings of the week
were uniformly successful. At the
school meetings on Monday night Mr..
Love and Mr.. Whittier made stirring
addresses on the school problem, to a
crowded hall, and Mrs. Brooks sing
ing was greatly enjoyed. On Tuesday
night Mr.. Sherman, the county agri-
cultural agent, and Mr.. Jay Coryell,
of the State College of Agriculture,
were the speakers, while Mr.. Davis
illustrated address on good roads was
most instructive and interesting.
A number Of towns have already

somewhere in the southern end of the
county as the two previous ones have
been in the northern end.

Close of the Dorset Campaign. The
Williams College Men Prove the

The climax of the Dorset Campaign
was reached on Friday night. At six
o'clock the vestry Of the church was a
scene of great activity, the community
being gathered there for big COM
munity dinner. The arrangements
were very carefully made and in spite
of large crowd everything went off
very smoothly. Dinner was served
after the nature of a buffet lunch.
Sandwiches, salads, coffee and cake
forming the greater part of the menu.
At o'clock the Williams College men
had arrived and the crowd went to the
hall Although all the available chairs
and settees had been taken to the hall,
they proved insufficient and many
were forced to stand.
The entertainment was entirely in
formal. Mr.. A. H. Heddon '1S, was
easily the star of the evening. His
sleight-of hand work was mystifying
and interesting to all. Mr.. Goodrich
Schauffler IS, and Mr.. r. Darlington
Goodrich IT, with their violins, added
much to the program. Mr.. Phillip H.
Rogers IS, presided at the piano. The
four together formed quartet and
sang many college and other songs
At the close of the entertainment the
young people all remained for social
hour and to meet the Williams College
men. Here it was discovered that
some of the young women had been
thoughtful enough to lay away some
of the unused food provided for the
dinner and at eleven o'clock they re-
turned to the church, indulging in the
good things which were left. After
sing around the piano in the church
vestry all departed for good nights
rest preparatory to the trip in the
morning.

Synopsis of "The Land of Hearts

The play by William Yeats is based
upon the tradition that upon May eve
the Good People" go asking milk
and fire. "Woe to the house that
gives, for they have power upon it
for a year, They will cast spell
over any one who is bold enough to
call them by the name of "Faerie," to
give them milk to drink or Goals of
glowing fire. Especially are newly
married brides in danger of giving
their souls into the power of faerie.
In the play, newly married bride,
Marie Bruin, is weary Of this dull
world, and longs for a land
where nobody gets old and crafty
and wise,
Where nobody gets old and bitter Of
tongue,
Where nobody gets old and godly and
grave"
When she hears light feet at her door,
she joyously grants the cup of milk
demanded, or the coal to light pipe.
In response a faerie child dances in,
