KENT'S HILL

J.E. Underwood Is performing an in
teresting experiment in forestry at his
old homestead on Echo Lake. A plot
of land that has been in the Under
wood family for 81 years has been
chosen for the experiment and will be
planted with selected young pines in
an effort to reforest the land. Careless
cutting and lack Of forestry laws have
permitted much waste in the lumber
resources of this district and Mr.. I'm
derwood is trying to promote an inter-
est in replanting among his nefghbors.
He invited Is neighbors and friends
to a planting Thursday and gave them
an excellent outing in the crisp Octo-
Der air on the shore of the lake. Each
guest was allowed to plant two trees
each to bear his or her name in the
guest book and on the plot of the land
which Mr.. Underwood will have made.
Three years from now, on the Tooth an
niversary Of the ownership of the land,
the same guests will be invited to re-
assemble and note the progress of the
young trees and to plant new trees.
Each guest will note with interest the
growth Of the tree named for him ana
Mr. Underwood hopes that good enough
results will be obtained to encourage
others to attempt similar experiments.
Five members of the Underwood
family were present, including MISS
May, and Mrs. Caroline Underwood. T..
]. Cole, Esq, and Mrs. Cole, who are
summer residents Of Fayette. were
nresent. Mr.. and Mrs. French of
Temple, Maine. and Mr.. Craig, a FORM
err resident of Fayette Mills, no" Oh
New York, were among the out OF town
visitors. Principal Newton, Professor
A. C. Russell and daughter, Mildred
were invited from the Seminary facul-
ty.
The Eromatheon Society enjoyed
daintv program Thursday evening IN
which several of the new students TOOK
part. Mildred Frost read selectiohs
from Kipling, Elsie Fowle rendered a
piano solo and Edith Blodgett narrated
an interesting girls story In her inlm-
table style. Bertha Stevens read
paper on the German army. and Eliza
beth Dow and Frances Ware read
Joint paper filled with Jokes on their
comrades. The real hit OF the even
ing was an original story written by
Erma Fellows, called Professor New
tons Dream. The story was full or
fun, frolic and laughter and was highly
applauded. The program concluded
with a speciality, 1.-THE Children's
Hour, by Georgia Dunton and Helen
Shaw.
Professor Spencer, Of the English
Department, has started class in re-
view Grammar at the request Of the
girls. A similar evening class for boys
has proved so valuable that the girls
have asked for a class also and Pro-
fessor Spencer has gladly responded.
Membership in this class is voluntary
and no charge is made for tuition: II
affords an excellent opportunity for
those who are deficient in grammar.

DANCE WITH

Russian Artist Says Girls

CHICAGO. Sept 11.-Other north
shore villages than Wilmette may be
expected to enact rules and regula-
tons about leaving ones clothes
around in messy heaps when Veronlne
Vestof. artist of the Russian imperial
school OF dancing. and his girl stu
dents start their laboratory OF nature
dancing in the north shore woods.

Costume Bags,
Fashionable and Convenient

Saddle-bag pockets, reticules and
vanity bags Of many sorts have pro-
vided fashionable receptacles this sum-
mer for all the small necessities of
feminine comfort. Wherever she goes
the lady of today carries some sort of
n vanity bag along, and even at home
she provides herself with reticules and
pockets, for convenience. Many of
these are made of the same material
as the frock or skirt but separate from
1t. For the sports-skirt patch-pock-
cts are usually attached. or practical
pockets r supplied. with another
management. But for the house gown
and the visiting toilet, the costume bag
to match or to harmonize Is proper
wear.
The last newcomer to make its ap.
pearance is the pretty Betsy Ross bag.
1t is the simplest of silk bags, from
Q to ~ inches long, gathered into a
small circular mirror, incased in silk
at the bottom and having a scalloped
or pointed frill at the top. The mouth
Of the bag is closed with narrow satin
ribbon which serves to suspend 1t from
the arm.
These Betsy Ross bags are deco
rated with flounces Of the material or
with designs wrought In bead work. An J
