Local Y. P. C.. u. Makes Hit

In the presentation Of "a Day at the
Ranch" at town hall last Thursday and
Friday nights the Y P. c. U. of the Uni
versalist church of Morrisville made
pronounced hit and Mr.. and Mrs. Rod.
enbaugh of New York, who staged the
production added another to their list
of successes. Incidentally, it was again
demonstrated that for town of its
size Morrisville has an unusually large
amount of histrionic and musical talent.
When it is considered that the produc-
ton was rehearsed but ten days, the
finished manner in which the principals
and choruses did their parts, is worthy
of special note. 1t was also again DEM
onstrated that the old town hall is en-
tirely inadequate to the needs of the
present generation and that one of the
urgent needs of Morrisvile is a new
opera house.
About $50 was realized by the society,
which will be used to purchase new inter-
ior furnishings for the Universalist
church. Much credit is due Rev. Mr..
Cranmer, to whose untiring efforts
much of the success is due,
Space forbids an adequate report of
the entertainment, as every mum ber was
deserving of special mention. Among
the specialties which were the most en-.
Enthusiastically received were, "Pd Like
to be the Isle of Man." by Fred Child,
IT,, assisted by twenty young ladies,
lust We Two" by Hazel Fisk and Mr..
Child, the lack and Gill' act by Miss
Rena Merrill and Mr.. Child and AFTER
Vespers," representing the Seven Ages
of Love, sung by Miss Gretchen Nicholai
of Great Darlington, Mass, whose con-
tributions to the program were much ap-
preciated

Advent Church

Again last Sunday Rev. e. f. Lombard
of Enosburg Falls supplied the desk. In
the morning he gave an earnest and In
spring sermon on The Saints Inheri-
lance from Pet. 1874, something to be
hoped for, is incorruptible, indebted and
fadeth not away. He closed with ]. AL
bert Libby's poem on The Blssful Vision.
In the evening another excellent ser
mon was preached from Malachi 3:16-IS,
special emphasis being placed on verse
II. The topics to the subject we're di-
