Mrs. David Herrick of Northport was
lost last Thursday while berryng not far
! from her home. When she did not return
at p. m, her family sent a special call
/ for help to Belfast and the police and
several firemen were ready TO lend assist
ance in the response to the call of five
blasts of the fire alarm. Before they
reached Northport Mrs. Herrick had re-
turned home safely. She said that she
lost her way about o'clock and evidently
wandered around in circle in the woods.
She finally heard COW bell and knew
that if she remained near it she might find
her way out. She did so and when night
came the COW started for the pastures
nearer home and Mrs. Herrick followed.
She came out of the woods some four
miles from her home which she reached
about o'clock. She had lost her hat,
her picking dish, some of her berries and
| her clothes were torn and she was weary
and hungry.
| A number of Belfast people went to
the Northport Country Club last Sun
day afternoon to enjoy the violin solos
| by Miss Louise E. Bunker of Boston and
were enthusiastic in praise of the talent
ed young artist. Miss Bunker's selec-
tons included the Spanish Dance by
| Granados and ballet music from Rosa
mond, and several encores both of the
grave and the gay giving her opportunity
to display beauty and color of tone, as
we'll as brilliancy and spirit. With her
mother she came to Boston from Mon
tana and has been a student at the New
England Conservatory of Music under
Prof Timothy Adamoweski, the famous
Pole instructor. She graduated in June
1918 and gives promise of soloist of
unusual merit. The assisting artist
Charles Raycroft, boy soprano, rem
dered several songs with a voice that
might well be the env: of many feminine
singers.
