A FINE THANKSGIVING GATHER
 

Dear socal Corner Sisters: I am go- Ing to tell you what a nice Thanksgiving had. My friends at Norwich visited me up to their annual reunion. There were only eleven of us who gathered around the festive board. Others were expected but illness and bad weather prevented their coming. There were several who used to meet with us on that occasion, who have crossed The Great Divide and it may be the last time some of us who were present this year will be there to answer when the roll is called Who can tell? Our menu con- sisted of roast duck, chicken pie. cran- berry sauce, and all the fxings that go with them three kinds of pie, several kinds of cake, nuts fruit and candy. Our dinner was served at 12 o'clock and a five there was a lunch for those who wished it. In the evening we had mu- sic. bcth vocal and instrumental which Was very much enjoyed. Our host and hostess were ideal entertainers. I wish I could have stayed over 10 the meet at the Buckingham Memorial, but I had to como home to do some church work for the sale on the 18th Aunt Hester and Swamp Apple came from the meet and so J heard all about 1t. I was delighted to receive such a nice long call from them also to hear all about what a nice time you all had and I would liked to have been there with you all I have a bad cold and have been a shut-in for 3 week. Hope to be out again In a few days.
 have quite an assortment of arti- cles for Christmas, both for the sale and for gifts. such as pin cushions, sofa pillows, wrist bags, bean bags, owls, cats Of all colors, shlrtwa'st hangers. etc.
 Owls are made of brown tissue paper drawn through the hands to wrinkle 1t in imitation of feathers. The ears are like cats, eyes of bright buttons, claws of wax and beak, the same. They are saucy looking.
 Shirtwaist hangers are made of card board covered with cotton. and then with silk or any fancy goods. with hanger in the middle It has taken a lot of time 10 make so many things. but Christmas comes but once year" I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving as well as did and that you will all have a merry and happy Christmas.

SEEKING WITCH BRIDLEs

To the Editor and Sisters cf the so-1s
 Corner: In my native town. Griswold there stands an old house which is sa id to have been the abode of witches in the days of the belief in witchcraft But when that belief had died away and the witches had departed, according to tradi- ton, they left some of their parapher- nalia behind them in tho shape of witch brides in the attic of that old house
 Many were the stories tha my great aunt used to tell us of their misehevous tricks. Of course they had departed lonz before her recollection. but she remem- bered many stories concerning them that tradition had brought down. She told us about the witch-bridies and my broth- CT and I were very curious about them
 We wanted 10 know If they looked like other brides but as she had never seen them she was unable to tell us that We then asked her if she thought that tho Jld ladies who were living in the old house at that time would allow us to gS into their attic and search for thoss

PL>IyrIELD ACADEMY.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: 1 have read the Social Corner news for a long time and have friends who belong and wish to become a member.
 I am going to write brief history of Plainfield Academy and when I attend ed school there. l went to school In the Old Stone Academy in 1s1s. At that time there was only the Fifth grade there. There were four rooms in the Academy when I first started school there in the First grade Miss Margaret Sullivah was principal then. l don't recall all the teachers that were there but Miss Agnes was janitor for a number of years, and I think all of the time I was there: I often see many of the pupils that went at that time, some that were in my grade and n higher grades. too We used to have a nice time Arbor day planting tres, and speaking pieces which they all enjoyed
 The old Stone Academy was built in 1925, and has been used for grammar school since 1881. At the present time there are TWO rooms being used, one In charge of Miss Agnes B. Allen, whose grandfather, lev Lucien Burleigh, was principal from 1S55-1SS0 At one time we studied wood. There was 37 dit- terent kinds of wood on exhibition. all coming from his farm. They were mounted on a big board.
 They were given to the school.

MORE EXPERIENCES With BORROW
 FRS

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sisters: think people often borrow from a care less habit. They do not give a thought to the household needs and fa.l to order the stt plies before hand and when they 2 to 9repare the meals find they are out 0 several things needed. Then they rush to Q neighbor to borrow, never stopping tc think or care if she has enough to spare the needed amount and prepare her own meals. And many don't care if it is neV- CT returned I used to have 9 nefghbor who was always borrowing corn meal anywhere from two to four quarts at a time. When she sent for 1t she never asked if I could spare so much. Some times I had to go without brown bread on a Saturday night in consequence. 1 could not understand why she did it for shr. knew she used a quantity of meal each week Besides they raised their own corn, and it was no more for her hus- hand to go to the grist mill then 1t was for mine.
 Another neighbor was always berrow- ing patterns and was not content to CT her clothing by them but as I learned i later also cue pattern to keep for further use. This was a case of saving the pennies for when one makes all their clothes it takes a number of lratterns an ] the amount paid for each would amoup 10 quite bit in the run If 3 year. She al i so borrowed from another neighbor su- | gar. corn meal vanilla and in fact almos everything from a lin to wasn tub. BIt i when the other woman went to borrow 1 fruit jar rubioers she had a good deal t0 say about folks borrowing When the woman told me about borrowing the rub | bers there was a merry twinkle in her | eyes as she said knew she was going t0 Jean and I did 1t cn pgr3ose to see wha l she would say. I didn't see any need l of either one borrowing as the crder clerks went to their houses three times a week and their husbands earned goo1 wages more than enough with a Htt1c i thought and planning to have furnishe l everything needed without borrowing
 Another family was always borrowing and did not hesitate to ask not only for something they needed but for things they wanted for pleasure and hardly ever thought to return the articles. One thino | ir particular was leaned and after 2 year it was returned totally ruined 9th
 CT articles Of less value were worn out | or broke and never a word said. Nov
 have drawn the line I believe in the Golden Rule but I also believe there arr
 few things that should belong to every.
 one. such as clothing and toilet articlts S
 I think I have said enough about borrowing. Now will ask a question Who
 can tell anything about the September
 gale of 1915?
 With best wishes to ali, I am,

MAKING AND CARING FOR 4 ROSE
 GARDEN

Daar Corner Editor and Readers; To .t,osas of vou who have had your sdm- mar blessed with the delightful bloom and fragrance of roses I would say no" is the time 10 look out for supply TOT another year. so do not turn your backs on the generous bushes but continue to extend to them the same care that was given thro lgh the yielding season.
 Although d light, sandy soil is most favorable to the growth of roses. 1t should be covered over every autumn with a good fertilizer the plant food from cows b5inG preferred to any other and in selecting this great care should be taken that it Is sufficiently ma ture, for if 4ot a green fermentation is likely to ensure, which is death to the plant.
 In choosing site for a rose garden one should take care to command as open and exposed 8 space as possible, so that during the summer the plants may receive their full abundance of sun, wind rain and dew.
 But it is not enOught to protect mere ly the roo-s of the plants Now Is the time one 3hould gather long branches from the cedar, pine or other evergreen and place them in the ground around and between the bushes where they serve 10 protect their more delicate kindred from the cold winds of winter, also mak- ing the garterT more pleasing to the eye during the long winter months
 Just before budding time in the spring the fertilizer which has laid on the ground during the winter should be thoroughly worked into the soil. all dead branches cut out and at least one-haIf Of the pre7i 1us years growth Nothing less than this severe cutting process will perpetuate the life and vigor of the plant. In addition to the fertilizer already men ttoned, bone wood ashes and powder ed charcoal may all be used on the soil, the latter's special office being to pre- serve and deepen the tints Of the blos- sons.
 In selecting plants for country rose garden one can not do better than to choose that at least a fourth of them shall be of the Jacdueminot variety. They are the hardest, the most prolific. | the most fragrant and in every way the most satisfying roses that one can cul- tfvate

 A woman marrying a husband of the yellow race loses her citizenship forever, as her husband is disqualified to ever be- come an American citizen.

GREETINGS FROM JOAN.

Dear Social Corner Members. When read last Saturdays paper I noticed q letter signed Pansy and thought it was the same one We used to have in this city. but find it is a new writer. I've often wondered what has become Of Mother Hubbard. She used to write such nice letters. Was glad 10 see a letter from s. E. D. as 1 always enjoy them.
 Cretia: l had a good laugh over your epitaphs. Here are some more: Under this turf doth lie. Side by side my wife and l. When the last trump the air doth fill If she gets up I'll lie still.' Here lies the body of Nancy Flynn Who. when she lived was so pure within That she burst at last her mortal skin And matched herself a eherubim."
 Blanche: I don't think you will find 8 suitable one; sometime I will send you a few in a letter-snd would like to sec you when you read them.
 Yes, l think We all have had an ex- perience with people who borrow.
 Ophels: You wanted the opinion of q person who would open others letters. call it "meanness." No well-bred per son would do such a thing. With the seasons greetings to all.
 JOAN.
