ANN s. CHAPLIN

Ann S. Chaplin, daughter Of Jacob
and Sarah Porter Chaplin, was born
May Z, 1897, in Pawlet, VT, where her
relatives on her mothers side had held
honorable positions in the church and
community for many years.
In 1871 the Chaplin family moved to
Peru whore they lived for IL years.
They we're hard years in many ways
for the family was large and means
were small on the little farm which
they cultivated; but Miss Chaplin al
ways cherished the memory Of those
early days and Of the sturdy and Cod
fearing people who made up the COM
munity.
In order to better his circumstances
Mr.. Chaplin moved with his family to
Manchester in 1854. They lived at

first in house, now torn down, which
stood in the lot opposite Mr.. Henry
Bundy's, where Mr.. Chaplin carried or
his trade as cooper. Later they
moved to the house just north OF
Judge Munson's and in 1876 to their
present home.
As the oldest daughter upon whom
many responsibilities fell Miss Chaplin
was denied the opportunity of an edu-
cation which she craved. A few terms
of district or select school in Peru and
part of year at the Seminary were
all she had; but she was educated in
the truest and best sense. Her heart
and will were trained and disciplined
so that she met the duties of life
with courage and unfailing cheerful
ness.
For nearly 30 years she lived in
Judge Munson's family and then was
called home to minister to her mother,
who had fallen and broken her hip
After her mothers death she spent
some time with Mrs. DR.. Wickham
and later with Miss Lucy Morrill, and
in the family of Dea. BATHS. Wher-
ever she lived she gave an unstinted
service and will be lovingly remember
ed for her ministry to the sick and
aged and for her fidelity to all that
was entrusted to her.
To her own family she gave an I'M
bounded devotion. She had no inter
ests apart from theirs and no wish for
which they could not share.
Three brothers and one sister, as we'll
as her father and mother, had passed
on before her, but her sister Ruth was
spared to care for her during her long
illness.
She passed away on Friday, June %,
and on Sunday the funeral services
were held at her late home. Through
the pouring rain friends came from
all parts of the town to honor the
memory Of one whose life was an IL
Of the Christian virtues Of
charity and patience and unselfsh
owe.
The church of which she was a
faithful member will miss her pres
nee at its services and her devotion to
al its interests, but they and all who
tnew her believe she has joined with
hat company Of the saints in light,
Who rest from their labors and whose
works do follow them.

LACE BLOUSES.
What ls Fashionable In the Realm Of
Dainty Waists

| DAINTY waists.
Lace blouses with the bib collar O.
Grape are comparatively new. Then
there are the cape blouses which give
pretty finish across the shoulders,
but are so contrived that they do not
add any suggestion Of breadth across
the chest Some OF these capes are
bound with satin or MORE ribbon
while others have quilting OF net
chiffon.
Striped messaline has been chosen
for the development of semi-taiored
blouse, which later may be worn with
the outing skirt, In fact, the outing
season has been very well considered
in the planning Of the blouse models.
This Is evidenced In the smock blouses,
which are really sort Of coat and
which are either quiet or very gay.
In some instances the smock blouses
are trimmed with the stendled de-
signs In high colors; other ideas ar,

the smock trimming to match that of

He could hardly restrain himself
from too earnest a declaration of
gratitude. 1t was practically his first
friendship, and woman's friendship
meant great deal to him. When
she was ready and came out Of her
room, neatly dressed, in the expen-
sive furs, he felt that he would like
to have her at his side forever.
In the restaurant she drew him out
further. Before the evening was end
ed he had told her all about his home
and his struggles in New York.
"You mustn't give way" she said.

anything has had to go through just

Rawlinson, and he was conscious of

Rawlinson's hopes went high up in
