Another Pleasant Shower.

There are showers and showers, and some showers are less trying to the patience and endurance than some other showers. Such showers, for in- stance as those that have fallen with such frequency and prodigality upon Miss May Devine, the popular young schoolma am who is to be married next Wednesday to William Morris. The latest shower with which Miss Devine was showered was a miscellaneous shower" which broke last Thursday afternoon at her home on Church street.
 When Miss Devine returned home from school that afternoon she found, to her surprise, the parlor in the posses sion of seventeen members of the Ladies Catholic Club, and formida- ble array of suggestive looking pack ages disposed about the room. When she could get her breath she was com- pelled to seat herself on the floor in the center of the room and open every package in the presence of the com- pany. This process brought to light a rich store of cut, glass, hand painted china, a number of hand embroided pieces of linen and other varities of beautiful and useful articles that will go to beautify her prospective new house on Prospect Avenue-all of which serve to testify to the high es- teem in which she is held by her as. sociates and friends. Refreshments- ice cream and cake-were served as a fitting finish of the successful surprise visit. Among those present were Mrs. John Graves, Mrs. John smith, Mrs. Catherine Briggs, Mrs. Joseph Smith, Mrs. Catherine Fitzgerald, Mrs. John Devine, Mrs. William Reel, Mrs. James Mccormick, Mrs. Daniel Sweeney. Mrs. Michael Hickey, Mrs. Harry Mul. ford, Misses Mary and Della Slattery, Nellie Finn, Rosalie Imhoff, Emma Kegler and Catherine Mccormick.

EAST CANAAN'S BRIGHT PROSPECT
Big Plant for Making Cement and
 Brick from Cinders.

Preparations are making at the East Canaan furnaces of the Barnum, Richardson Company, for the install ing of an industrial innovation that will be the nucleus of some important further developments of the extensive plant at that place, and will mean much to the industrial and general business welfare of the town.
 The first step consists in the erection and equipping of a large plant for the reclamation of the vast cinder and slag heaps hlther to counted as waste from the iron furnaces, and their conversion into cement, by a recently invented and perfected process. The inventor has been on the ground for some time, laying out plans, and ground IS being broken for the erection of the first of a group of buildings required by the pro. cess.
 It is asserted that the slag and cin- ders at that place, of which there are thousands of tons, the accumulations of many busy years, are susceptible of transformation into cement and brick of superior quality, and the plant at East Canaan will be the first to put the new process into practical operation.
 The establishment will bring num- Der of operatives and their families to this section, and the business con- munity generally will be benefited by the influx.
 The enterprise will be carried on by an entirely new corporation, of which the Barnum, Richardson Company will be a part, and outside interests and capital will be identified with it.
 It is an assured fact that a promis- ing future is about opening for indus trial East Canaan.

COMMUNITY FIELD DAY
Fine Program Belng Arranged for
 Norfolk Jubilee. July q.

The plans for the Community Get Together Day in Norfolk are fast materializing and the enthusiasm all ready manifested in splendid prouaiSe of its success.
 The idea is to get every family in town and all the children to come ao- gether on the Fourth of July at the Norfolk Golf Links which have been most generously proffered by the Misses Eldridge and have genuinely good time seeking to banish every care, to forget every annoyance, and everything that in any way separates us from each other, and to really feel the thrill of joy and inspiration that comes with the neighborly spirit as we all get potter acquainted with each other and realize our mutual privileges and responsibilb- ties and possibilities as we seek to make Norfolk an ideal community town.
 A strong general committee has heen appointed consisting of Messrs. R- R Stoeckel, Warren Cordially, William O'Conner, M. B. Snow, Thomas P Higgins, Philemon Johnson, W. A- Spaulding, Jr., Mrs. Stephen Selden Mrs. A. F. S., Taylor and Miss Katts- crime Kane, who have sent out inyitm- tions to every family in town whose names they have been able to learn. There being no directory of Norfolk they have worked out from the Schooi Enumeration, the tax and the voters 1iss and various other records complete R directory as they they could. If any families or individuals have been omitted, it has been unintentional on the part of the committee and they hope to make the list absolutely coxrl- plete.
 A detailed program will be presensed later, but the general scheme is to have everybody assemble on the Village Green between 9 and 10 o'clock. They will be carried to the Golf Links in automobiles and brought back after the exercises in the afternoon.
 At the Links there will be amnpe- ments and sports of various kinds in which all are invited to participate. music and dancing and some short pn- triotic speeches, appropriate. to the spirit of the day. A bounteous dinner will be provided for all at noon, aud everything is free to all.
 In the evening it is hoped to have IA display of fireworks from some of tile high hills around the town,
 The Boy Scouts and the Norfolk Guards will be on hand and add to the fun and the helpfulness of the oeon- sion.
 The town of Norfolk is waking up to tine fact that this "Neighborhood Day'' is its first great opportunity for every oue to get together and get better Rs- quainted with each other and if each family and individual catches the real spirit of the occasion 1t will make the day a memorable one in Norfolk's his- tory.
