had finished our dinner so we picked
up and got ready for the afternoon
sports. We first had a foot race;
victory for Augustine Rooney. Then
came a bag race; Harold Farrell
reached the goal first. The girls in
their turn were invited to try their
legs, three different times; honors
went to Ruth Currier, Blanche Gau-
! thier and Vivian Rooney respective
! ly. Then came the last and best
race of all, t'the biscuit race"
Hands were tied up between the
shoulders and a biscuit was put in
them. We were all placed six feet
apart, then one took the lead and all
followed after, intent in getting the
first bite Of biscuit from the pupil
Immediately in front of her. Vivian
once more distinguished herself as
she was the only one who attained
the aim of her ambition. She
proudly boosted that the graham
waters furnished for the occasion by
Marguerite Mary Maroney were de-
/ licious; no one could contradict her
either because they did not know.
The rest of the afternoon was passed
in quieter games, all very amusing.
Six of the big girls took boat ride
and as none of them were experience
ed rowers they had to keep near
the shore all the time; this, however,
did not prevent them from getting
a good soaking, and well-blistered
hands. Of course they had grand
old time" to hear them speak. It's
time to say appearances are very
deceiving."
Too soon it was time to think of
the return journey. In the mean
time we sought comfort in the rem
nants of our dinner. Lunch over,
we started for the wayside to meet
our conveyance. They were waiting
for us (by the roadside.) We reach
home towards five o'clock, happy
and contented with our days ex-
periente. May 25th will long live in
the memory of the pupils of Island
Pond convent school.

A Day Spent at Warmers
Grove, May Is, 1915.

At three pm. on May oath the
pupils Of the convent school met in
their reception hall to offer their
wishes to Reverend Father Trottier
on the occasion of the anniversary
of his birth. Four young girls pref
tily costumed to represent the
seasons and carrying suitable offer
ings of flowers, fruit and wheat ten
dered to the reverend pastor in the
name of all the homage Of their filial
gratitude and respectful wishes for
his happiness. In a few words
Father Trottier thanked the children
and granted them a holiday for the
morrow.

sired picnic dawned bright and warm
and of course we all were delighted,

rare. .
We all met at the convent at nine
o'clock and found two hayracks
waiting for US. We all piled in till
they were more than full. Our
teacher and few of the girls went
in an auto; its charitable chauf-
feur" being always on the lookout
for some good deed to do, drove up
to our door just in time. 1t was a
very merry crowd that went through
the streets, as our horns and voices
proclaimed almost too loudly. We
arrived at destination at ten o'clock.
Our first care was to store away
our well-filled lunch baskets in secure
places and then we went immediate
ly to the open field for a game of
ball. The captains were Augustine
Rooney and Sydney White; we play
ed till 1870, then the game was
brought to a close with the scores IL

our dininglplace on the shore of the
pond and we certainly did justice to
our appetizing boxes. BY 1915 we

pep to help the home team win.
The six lower grades united in
pre-memorial day exercises and a
collection was taken for the children
of the countries at war. Two dollars
was the result.
Island Ponds second game of
baseball was played at Canaan Satur-
day, May 27, and resulted in score
of 6-2 in favor of Canaan. Island

fewer errors than in the first game.
Over one hundred school children
marched to the cemetery on Memoir
ial Day: II from Miss Webster's
room; Is from Miss Ames'; % from
Miss LaRoche's; % from Miss Ha-
ley's and 20 from Mr. Saunders.
Forty-eight girls wore red, white
and blue sashes and crowns, each
representing state. On account
of the rain many could not wear
white dresses so the effect was not
as good as hoped.
In spite OF the rain on Memorial
Day ball game was played between
the high school and Canaan on Ath-
letic Field. On account of the rain
and conflicting reports as to whether
the game was to be played, the spec
tators were few but school spirit
was much in evidence. After hard
fought battle, our boys won the
game with the modest score of 49,
Is. Canaan led off by getting six
scores in the first inning. At the
end of the third inning the score was
13--4 in favor of Canaan. Then Is
land Pond began to get busy and in
five innings piled up Is scores. 1t
had been agreed upon to play seven
innings but at the end of that inning
the score was tied. In the first of
the eighth, Canaan got two scores
and the first two men up for Island
Pond were out. 1t looked bad but
the boys did nobly. Stevens came
to bat, followed by Lajoie, and LIE
febvre. Stevens got home on ar
error by the catcher, leaving Lajoie
on third and Lefebvre on second
Mosher came to bat and made a two
base hit, scoring Lajoie and Lefebvre
winning the game. Considering the
wetness and slipperiness of the field
very few errors were made by ISLAND
Pond. Lawrence Curran distinguish
ed himself by making a beautiful
one hand catch in the seventh, put
ting out the third man.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 3.-It is announced tonight that the leaders of the Progressive party have de- cided not to nominate any candi- date but have appointed an exe- cutive committee of fifteen to per petuate the party. The conference is decidedly hostile to Hughes whose support comes from the very elements in control of the republi- can party called into existence in Progressive party. They adopted strong resolutions criticizing severe ly the National Cimmittee for so far forgetting the principles of the Progressive party as to indorse Charles E. Hughes as the party can didate. It is denied that Hughes is the party candidate. It is denied that Hughes can be accepted and it is left by inference to be held that Wilson is to receive the party sup
