Many Dorset readers have Won
dered what would become of our ice
business when Clarence Blaekmer en-
tered the Army For their inforna-
ton we would say that before he left
he made arrangements with Byrne
Harwood to look after the business for
him until his returns. Plans are now
under way for the rebuilding of the
ice house on the ground of the old
one and by the time ice cutting com
mences it will be ready to receive the
ice. This new building will be rooted
over thus securing better preserva-
ton of the ice.
Word received from Toledo, o., on
Tuesday tells US that Mr. and Mrs
NJ V. Barbour entertained DR.. and
Mrs. Wilson Of Elizabeth. N. j., Mr.
and Mrs Victor d. Barbour and Mas
ter Victor d. Barbour, Jr., on Thanks
giving Day. Master Victor Jr. was
the guest of honor and from all ac-
counts received the homage with dig
hity. The same letter tells us that NJ
V. Barbour and Mr.. Hodge have had
great luck duck hunting Each time
they went out they returned with not
less than 20 ducks each. We congrat-
ulate them. They seem to be as good
shots with gun as they were last
summer with golf club.
Our post master, Albert B. Roberts,
has received his supply of War Thrift
Stamps and Savings Certificates and
is prepared to furnish our residents
with them. This is plan where all
can do something for their "boys" and
at the same time be saving money and
receiving four per cent interest on
their investment. Children, young
men and girls, and older ones also,
stop, think! If you have an extra
quarter instead of blowing" it for
some useless thing which is gone in no
time take it to the post Office and buy
Thrift Stamp. Then when you have
bought Is of them exchange them for
Savings Certificate. Keep this in
mind. You are helping your country
and also doing your share TO help our
Dorset Boys.
The entertainment for the Red Cross
has been postponed to Friday even
ing, Dec. 14th. This entertainment
should be attended by all of our resi-
dents for two reasons: First, to aid
the Red Cross work; second, to show
appreciation of our young peoples eff
forts and to encourage them for work
in the future. An affair of this char
acter means a great deal of hard work
and considerable self denial and when
the play is given those who take part
naturally look for support from their
townspeople and if it is not forthcom-
ing they feel that their time and
efforts have gone for naught and can
not be expected to take an interest in
entertainments proposed at a later
time. So reader. remember this and
arrange to attend Friday night, Dec.
18th. Watch for the local posters in
the post Office and stores.
