tant games of basketball to be play
ed this winter at Cony High school
will be the games Of Friday evening
OF this week between Cony and Ed
ward Little High of Auburn and the
game announced for Friday evening,
March 4, with Morse High of Bath.
Edward Little will come to Angus
Ia bringing probably the two best
forwards on the floor of gym
nasium in the State of Maine. This
team has a goodly number of ex-
ceedingly hard fought and won
games to it's credit, having played
some of the best preparatory school
nves OF the State, and will be on
hand at Augusta with the idea of
doing their best to take the Cony
scalp back with them to the Andres
Coggin city. The contest is sure of
being one worth watching for the
Cony boys are also out to win.
When Morse High shows up, they
Will have with them the super-man
Perkins. who already has in all prob
ability the State record for floor
goals. This squad. also, will be a
hard proposition for the local boys,
as they are considered exceedingly
fast and are claimants for. the State
Championship.

Miss Ada M. Winchenbaugh, for
mer teacher in the Augusta graded
schools, is now teaching in what is
known. as the Quincy Home Making
school, having been there for the past
two years. Those who attend the
school have been graduated from

dwelling house only a limited num-
Der. about 80. may be taken.
The pupils learn TO cook, to wash
and iron, to take care of a house, to
sew and to do millinery. The nursing
course Is especially fine. When Miss
Winchenbaugh began to work in the
school she taught all the book work
English. ciyics, arithmetic, history,
science, geography and literature.
Owing to her illness Just before the
opening of school last September, the
director was granted a years leave
of absence and Miss Winchenbaugh
became director. To odd to the re-
sponsibility of her position she had
four new teachers, as three of the
teachers had resigned before the di-
rector became i'll, and her own former
position had to be filled.
Those who knew Miss Winchen-
baugh will not be surprised to learn
that she was competent to hold such
a position, and will wish her all suc-
cess,

First Recital of
Cecilia Club Series

The 1rat in the series Of recttals to
be given under the auspices OF the
Cecilia Club occurred Wednesday
morning At 10 o'clock in Library hau.
Miss Marion Carter. . talented soprano
of Portland. was the solotst and gave
q most interesting and charming pro-
sung in This city before and those who
were present Wednesday morning to
enjoy her rich voice and pleasing inter-
pretations of the music she sings were
wholly delighted.
With the exception Of one Handel
selection and group OF old English
songs, the program was from the mod
ern composers, including Rachman-
inoff, Carpenter, Curran. Kreisler.
Woodman and others. The opening
number was the Care Selve" from
Handci's opera "Atalanta," q beauti.
full and interesting aria and a de-
lightful introduction. This was sung
in Italian but all the other numbers
were in English. One of the best in
the entire program was Life" by
CurraH. which Miss Carter sang with
spirit and finish. Kreisler's Home
Song made perhaps the greatest inn
preston and Miss Carter kindly sang
it twice. Curran's Rain" and
Bleichman's sCome, Child. Beside
Me-" were two descriptive a1legros,
quite in contrast to Gretchaninoff's
Cradle Song and Twilight" by
Katherine Glen. The old English
songs were mostly love lyrics Of shep-
herds and shepherdesses and were
quantity satisfying.
The appreciation Of the audience
was generously shown by its applause
and Miss Carter's responses were
equally free. Miss Lois Mills of Port
land was an excellent accompanist.
