decorated with flags and friends ran
out to greet him waving flags, footing
| horns, ringing bells, etc, and as he
/ passed through the village street the
school children rang the church bell.
Then, when he was really home, ev-
erybody got busy and with splendid
community spirit and Yankee hustle,
reception was planned for the evening.
The women baked cakes and made ice
cream. Fortunately there was no tele-
phone strike on and the lines were in
constant use SO that all that was pos
Islble were soon notified. Invitations
were sent by long distance to relatives
in Mt. Hermon, Mass, Walpole, n. H.,
and Westminster and Brattleboro.
/ At $40 o. clock, the time appointed,
everybody was on hand, young and old,
to give Henry, our only boy who was
in France, royal welcome home, and
such it surely was.

Christian Endeavor society had decora-
ted the vestry with flags, bunting, war
posters, ported plants and flowers, and
arranged program.

meath large flags to receive the guests

FOOD SALE BADLY HANDLED

Sale of surplus army foods through
the postofices of the country has
been stopped because the people did
not patronize the government mail
order house sufficiently to warrant
the continued endeavor to furnish
goods at low prices. Orders that
have been placed will be filled but
no more orders will be taken. 1t
is stated that in the month the sale
has been conducted, only a tenth part
of the total supply Of foods was dis
posed Of.

Failing to get the phone, because of certain service rules about the cost of extensions, which the phone company claimed were so high they were prohibited from making the ex- tension, Chester took the matter up with the corporation commission, and finally filed complaint written in the best Comeback English.
 In dismissing the case, the opinion, which was written by A. A. Betts, chairman of the commission, states that "The merits of this complaint have been fully considered and have been passed upon and the application denied. It follows logically that there is nothing to do fAt dismiss the case, for the reason that an investigation has disclosed that the relief prayed fol cannot be granted
 The dismissal state; that Commis- sioners Betts and Johnson, at the re- quest of Hanson, went down and made a personal investigation and found that it would be necessary to build half mile of line to give the service denied.
 Another reason given for the dis missal of the case, besides those enum- erated, is that complainant did not comply with the rules of procedure for practice before the commission.

Love and the Law one of the most exciting dramas offered in Phoe- nix this year, will be shown at the Columbia theater for the last times to- day. There will be continuous per- formance from until Il o'clock
 This offering. which is presented solely on the value of the production, is unquestionably a story of strong ap- peal to all classes. It is a drama first and last, into which has been woven that essential of all good photoplays- a love story.
 There are at least dozen anti climaxes in this film play that meas ure up to the standard demanded by present day film audiences.
 When an audience gives vent to its feelings through the medium of ap- plause, then one well knows that it ap- preciates the art. Columbia audiences during the past two days have given round after round of applause as the story of Love and the Law unfo1ds.
 A Strand comedy will be the aug menting number to the feature for this day only.
