Talent Who Score AnOtherSuc-
cess.

The Brighton Brass Band minstrels
gave a show and dance in the opera
house last Thursday evening, Septem-
Der 27, to crowded house. The en-
tertainment was a varied program
and something doing every minute
of the two and half hours of the
show.
Local talent scored and the large
audience was enthusiastic. Every
number was good and all carried out
their parts with merit. 1t was the
best show staged in the opera house
for long time and far ahead of pro-
fessional troupes in general. The
splendid success of this show is due
in large measure to Mr.. and Mrs.
Arthur Burbank who put on and
directed the whole performance.
They are talented musical directors
and great credit is due them for the
success of the entertainment.

Second Contingent From Essex
County Given ROusing SendOff

Essex countY's second contingent
of drafted men left Wednesday
morning for Aver, Mass. A patriotic
meeting was held in the opera house
Tuesday evening which was largely
attended, and the Essex county boys
given a rOusing sendoff.
The meeting was presided over by
A. W. Bosworth and a patriotic ad-
dress delivered by Rev. G. L. Martin

sponse in the heart of every listener.
The war and its calls reach deeply
into every home and Mr.. Martin

forcefuness that brought home the
great task this country is perform
ing in bringing about the freedom
of the world.
The boys who were to leave for
the national army, veterans of the
Civil war, and exemption board
were seated on the stage. The band
played several selections which add
ed greatly to the success of the
meeting.
After the patriotic meeting the
needs of the local branch of the Red
Cross were forcibly presented by
Mrs. Robert Lawton. The local
branch needs funds to purchase ma
terial to make supplies for the boys
and the hospital service and Attor-
ney c. R. Powell spoke forbibly for
ready response to their appeal for
funds. Representative j. S. Swee-
neo also spoke in behalf of this work.
Cards were distributed on which
everyone was asked to pledge a
monthly offering for this work.
The selected boys left Wednesday
morning on the six o'clock train and

to bid them good bye.

The following is from Edmund
Foss received by his mother, Mrs.
G.. E. Foss, last week and tells a
whole lot in a few words:
Sunday, August 1917.
Dear Mother,
Il have not received any mail from
home yet and would like to hear
from you. We are in camp some
where in France and everything is
all right. We are in camp near a
ruined town that was left by the
Germans. We sleep in wooden huts
and have plenty of blankets, and the
food is fairly good.
"There are number of airplanes
flying over here every day. Have
any of fhe boys at home been drafted
yet? There is not much you can
write about so will close now.
Hoping this will find you all we'll
remain,
Your son, Edmund.

LETTERS FROM FRANCE
Island Pond Boys in the Engi-
neers Corps Write of Their
Work i'll France.

Under date of August "a, JamesW.
Campbell wrote long and very in
teresting letter to his father and the
following extracts will give an idea
of the country and what the Railway
Engineers are doing.
After writing of being in a camp
near London, Mr.. Campbell con-
tinues:
Il have seen a good many strange
sights since | left for France. If
you have read the papers you can
get a good idea if you multiply by
10, as did not think they could look
the way they do here. Seems too bad.
Are as near the fighting lines as you
are to the East road"
Cant tell you what | am doing
now. You can guess what is the
war news. Bet you can tell us more
than we can as we don't see a paper
at all, and we don't know what is
going on 10 miles from here"
Just think of Newport, VT, in
ruins, and not a building in sight
standing, not even a tree. Hard
to get a good drink of water as all
the supply has been poisoned by the
Germans. All you can see here is
war"
Mud, mud, but have had good
weather as yet but it's cold from
whatnI left in U. S., but like it in a
way as It's good experience for me
as we'll as the rest of the boys"
"The locomotives or engines are
in good shape here, better than l ex-
pected. Some big ones, as big as
G. T. R., in fact | am surprised at
them. Have seen a good many boys
here | had knownfin Montreal and in
Canada. They seem glad to see US. :"
Nothing but sadness in Europe
now and poverty. Poor people-God
bless them, talk about hard times in
U, S., good nightn'
"Wish you could send me theIsland
Pond paper sometime as would like
to get it, and don't forget to give
my regards to all the boys back
home. Hope to be back with them
some day-but."

BY WINONA WILCOX

Woman is most artificial when she

Of her descendants.
In the role of a woman in love,

DuL she VIII appear 10 De pOSLSu,
should her adOrer have literary
tastes; but if he hates a book, she
will only pose as mildly artistic,
knowing that it fiatters most men to
be approved by a girl Of tempera-
ment
If he happens to be poor, the girl
in love will let him know what a
fascinating hat she can trim for 81;
but if he is rich, she will reckon only
golf and polo among the useful arts.
And all the time her wOoing is pro-
crossing, her temper moves smoothly
and sweetly over all LIES little rifles.
She works wonders with her voice,
causing it to thrill with emotion, or
tremble with pathOs, or ring with
gladness, as the occasion seems to
reqUire-but never to betray anger.
Though self-forgetfurness is not
her normal state, she quite fOrgets
herself in him. You'd think she
never had an opinion of her own in
her life, by the way she echoes his.
This one phase Of their relationship
places them both for a time in that
seventh heaven where all true lovers
are supposed to abide forever.
But all these artificial splendors of
taste and temperament are not in
tended to deceive. A girl is no more
to be blamed for them than the moon
for its halo on a misty night or the
western sky for its glory when the
sun is setting. These are little bits
of nature-but one may mean rain
tomorrow and the other torrid
weather.
1t is just so with the subtle evas-
i've beauties which a girl puts on be-
fore her wedding day.
They are a pretty sure sign of a
speedy fall in loves barometer-after
marriage. The girl who is least ar
tificiaI before her wedding gets few
est hard bumps after it.

CORN PRICES JUMP
AS MARKET OPENS

CHICAGO. Aug. 17.-Corn prices raj
lied today owing more or less to abb
sence of any important fresh develop
ments pointing to a likelihood OF peace
At first, the market showed weakness
as result of a continuation OF recent
sales by holders. Leading houses,
though, were conspicuous purchasers,
and the market soon headed up grade.
Opening quotations, which ranged
from &c to &c lower, with December
at $1.13A to $1.13h and May at
S1.10as to $110x, were followed by
an ascent all around to slightly above
yesterdays finish.
Export interests were said to be buy
ing wheat here and at other points
where obtainable and at advantageous
terms for immediate delivery. Trad.
ing in the Sept. option appeared to
have entirely ceased, and no compari-
son with yesterdays latest price. $500,
was feasible
Oats manifested good deal of
strength because of pig export sales.
1t was said 100000 bushels had been
taken this week for Europe.
Provisions averaged higher with
hogs. Buyers, however, were not at
all aggressive.
