The climax of the Dorset campaign
was reached on Friday night AT q
o'clock the vestry of the church was
a scene of great activity, the com
munity being gathered there for a
big community dinner. The arrange
ments very carefully made and in
spite of a large crowd everything
Invent off very smoothly. Dinner was
served after the nature of 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
informal A. II. Heddon 1S, was
easily the star Of the evening. His
slight-of-hand work mystifying and
interesting all Goodrich Schauffler
is and R. Darlington Goodrich II,
with their yiolins, added much to
the program Philip II. Rogers 1S,
presided at the piano. The four to-
gether formed quartet and sang
many college and other songs. togeth-
er with other humorous sketches.
Everyone enjoyed good time. 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
returned to the church, indulgng in
the good things which were left.
After a sing around the piano in the
church vestry, all departed for a good
nights rest preparatory TO the trip
in the morning.
Saturday morning soon after ten
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 decended to the
old quarry and prepared dinner at

The other meetings of the week
were uniformly successful At the
school meeting on Monday night Mr.
Love and Mr.. Whittier made stirring

Agricultural Agent. and Jay Coryell,

Tuesday night was most instructive
and interesting.
A number of towns have already
requested the next campaign but 1t

County as the two previous ones
have been in the northern end.
