Thirty young men and youn women
OF the First Presbyterian church Bible
class took the high road to Trow hill
early last evening for their annual corn
roast The farm of Alfred s. Parkhurst
was their destination and an admirable
setting for the yearly outing it surely
proved to me. Mr.. and Mrs. Parkhurst
we're at their best as host and hostess
and it was due largely to their hospi-
table reception that the party was a
| success. There was an abundance OF
corn, apples, red plums and marshmal-
lows. After the repast, the hill climbers
gathered around the piano in the Park
hurst home, and added to the liyeliness
of the occasion with a number Of stir
ring songs The class committee in
charge of the arrangements consisted OF
William Edwards, Alexander G. Walker
and William Mcdonald.
1t is sometimes pleasant enough to

| intercity trolley servics which good
many people who have been accustomed
to looking at the service from maze
of angles may find pleasure in persuing.
A traveller subscribing himself, II. >"
writes to "All Sorts" in the Boston Post
as follows: Dear All Sorts--I have al
ways considered our Boston car system
as one OF the finest. ] have also looked
on our carmen as civil and generous at
times. Yesterday / was going from this
citv (Montpelier) to Barre, six miles be-
| low here About half way between
Montpelier and Barre, a lady came out
of a house. This lady was about 20
years old. Before the motorman saw
! her and could bring his car to a fun
stop we had passed the lady by not
more than Is yards. Instead OF wait.
ing for her to come up, the conductor
gave the motorman four bells and we
backed up to her. She had, OF course,
been walking toward us, but we had cut
off about 10 yards of the distance. This
lady then boarded the car and we moved
off. At any rate, is It possible for our
Boston street car employees TO show at
| least little of the civility shown
through other parts of the country
