My dear Mrs. Neubert:
This is just a little note to tell
you how much | am enjoying
your daughters. They are CO.
operative with me in my work
and are therefore very helpful.
Jaunita. although she has her
takes every pains to
show me all the courtesies due
me as keeper of the study hall.
1t often happens that girls find
it a little humiliating to recog-
nize authority after they have
received her advancement.
So Jaunita and Lucille both are
very delightful students, and l
wanted to just check up a mo
ment in my busy life to say SO to
their mother.
Most cordially,
Mrs. w. T. Lowrey.

Mullen said hetried to argue with her, saying: Don't say that. you're a beautiful girl. You have a pretty face and ought to get married.'
 Mullen was required to whisper to the jury vulgar language he said he beard Miss Ryan use to Mansfield. He also stated that Mansfield and Bessie werealmOst always quarreling. Tt would be a tongue flashing on her part and he would reply. ''Oh, shut up' :" Mullen said.

 Sunshine Society.

EIhe gift of one hundred shares of the capital stock of the American haI1Warc corporation, rcprcscnting on investment of about $19,OOO, made
 Dy J. Spencer Douglass to the Sun shlne society recently made necessary
 ,he incorporation of the members of the local society under the laws of T ICnnecticut into an auxiliary or sanitation in order that the fund might be kept in New Britain as a perpetuity. The step has not, how ever, been taken without causing some Misunderstanding and confusion.
 &The two local organizations of tho society have legally separate cN- 1stence and the money donated goes through the hands of the incorpor- ated body before used by the society proper. There are also two sets of cflcers. When MT. Douglass first pro- posed the gift, he specified that the money should be held in New Britain as perpetual fund. the dividend rate !. of six per cent. on par providing $500 annually for the purposes of the society. The Canonicus Branch of the international Sunshine society, how ever does not possess the right to mold such fund in perpetuity, but must make an accounting with the in- } ternational headquarters. In order, therefore, that the gift of Mr. Doug ] lass and any others that might be re- ceived could be used entirely for local purposes, the incorporation under the flaws of Connecticut was made. The officers of the incorporated society are the following:
 President-Mrs. Clara $. Warner ! Vice President-Mrs. Eliza H. Dyson.
 Treasurer-Mrs Lena H. Corbin Secretary-Mrs. Eliza F. Caldwell. The following are the incorporators of the society: Mrs. Clara s. War ner, Mrs. Florence E. Porter, Mrs. Eliza H. Dyson, Mrs. Lena H. Cor bin, Mrs. Lucy F. Tower, Mrs Mar garet E. Porter, Mrs. Eliza F. Cad well and Mrs. Charles Erickson. The first seven incorporators constitute the governing board. which will have charge of the disbursements from the fund
 The officers of the local branch of the International Sunshine society re- main unchanged, as follows:
 President-Mrs. George Corbin
 First Vice President-Mrs. George Caldwell.
 Second Vice President-Mrs. w. H. Porter.
 Secretary and Treasurer-Mrs. Jo- seph Towers.
 Corresponding Treasurer - Mrs. Charles Erickson.
 The work of the society will be car Aried on as before, except that special gifts will be handled by the incorpor- ated body.
 ] MT. Douglass gift will be known as the "Caroline S. Douglass Fund" and1 will greatly aid the society in it's work of sprea ding sunshine into many homes in the city The aim of the society is primarily to lessen sorrows and alleviate pain although it does considerable work in providing com forts to the needy.
 MT. Douglass has done much in @ quiet way to aid worthy causes and is particularly interested in charities that will aid New Britain. He has always been an unobtrusive citizen
 and is now we'll advanced in years. Among the gifts he has made that have come to public notice are tower clock to the First Congrega- uonal church, S1,00O to the Charity organization, and $1.0OO to the New Britain General hospital
