 There is something new in store for Stafford people in the coming Italian fair. Once before, about six years ago. something similar was run in the old Italian hall, but that was on a, much smaller scale than the event which will take place this week. The big difference between the coming fair and other fairs run in Stafford will be the fishing game. It really is a great game. Everyone can play it and there are 600 prizes to be won. This great collection of variety impossi- Die to describe is arranged in a large booth at the lower end of the hall, so, II you attend the fair, you will surely delight in at least looking at what you might win. If you have any dealings whatever with this booth you cannot come away empty handed. In case your luck is having a night off the
 On Wednesday evening December Sth, the people of Stafford are going to have an opportunity to hear some of the bst music the country affords. It is a concert to be given in the auditorium of the Congregational church by the celebrated violinist, Jacques Hoffman, and the well-known distinguished soprano, Edith Bullard. MT. Hoffman should need no intro duction to any audience anywhere, for he has played in every country of Europe and has made extensive tours throughout America. At present he is violin soloist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and has been concert mas ter of the same for several years Critics call him the artist perfect, for coupled with his remarkable skill and technique is perfect musicianship.
 Miss Bullard is soprano of the first class. She is considered about the best that Boston has to offer. Her purity of tone and interpretation to- gether with her dramatic ability make her songs always a delight to her hearers. For the past few years she has been engaged by Harvard and Boston Universities to illustrate cor rect singing and interpretation in their departments of music This same concert has been given in Bos- ton where the price for tickets was $1.5O to $2.00. Through the efforts of MT. Renwick this concert is to be had in Stafford for $1.OO per ticket, pro- vldIng that 300 tickets are sold. So let's all get together and make it possible to have the best music for Stafford.
 Stafford highs girls basketball team, the first the school has had in four years, defeated the Alumnae team, to 3, Friday evening in Boys Club in the first game it has played this year. Many shots were taken from the floor but only one of them, by Miss Fletcher in the first half, found the space inside the hoop. Miss Fletcher made the other three points for the school team from the foul line. The Alumnaes three points. were made on fouls, two by Miss Murray The game drew an unusually large at tendance, which makes it seem that girls basketball here this season will be successful. Score:

 The best game seen here, so far this season was that played Monday evening between the high school team and a Boy Scout five, which the former won, 38 to "A. It was fast and was battle throughout; not a walk-away by any means. The Boy Scouts had Cummings and Whitaker, two of. last seasons high school players, in their lineup, and they did much to make the game such hard fought one Bald win did the most in boosting the high 1nIn o1 IL = TNz- to hold down the Scouts score, besides adding bit to his teams total The surprise of the game was the work of Bernard Calchera, the smallest lad on the floor. During the first half he was the only one of the five scouts to find the basket from scrimmage and the ease with which he rang up six points made him look good. Score: S. HI S. Roy ScOI1tS
