WITH wINkLE CORNER CLUB.

The regular weekly meeting Of the
Wrinkle Corner Victrola Club was held
at the home of Mr.. Harry OFT on
Doughty Road on Thursday evening.
The question of increasing the men,
bership was discussed again and it
was decided that there was need of
an expert rifle shot, owing to the
character of one of the members. AS
there seems to be nc inclination to
extend the membership it is likely
that target practice will be the next
amusement INDUCED in, and then no
one but an undertaken will be needed.
A new kind of tooth-paste was intro
duced and those who tried it twill be
forever blowing bubbles" The usual
amount of music and singing was the
prevailing feature of the evenings en-
t%ertainment. Dainty refreshments
were prepared by the hostess and
thoroughly enjoyed. Those present
were John Somers, Chas. Morrison,
Robt. Crowder, Webster Price, Ted"
Quein, Ralph Crowder, Walter Cheese
man, Walter Risley, Mrs. Walter Ris-
ley and Mr.. and Mrs. Harry F. OFT.

Early Morning Blaze
in Business Center

A fire occurred about 4 o'clock Tues
day morning that first looked very
serious for the business district of the
city. Mrs. Nina, R. Winch, who con-
ducts a dry goods store at 5 N. Main
street was aroused from her slumber
by dense smoke in her bed room. She
arose and found fire in the lower part
of the house. With rare presence of
mind the first thing she did was to
telephone to the fire house, then with
Policeman Clark, who arrived about
that time, she started in to battle the
fire.
The firemen were quick to respond
and their efforts were successful in
keeping the fire confined to the lower
part of the house. Mrs. Winch suffer
ed a severe loss to her stock and
household goods. The building is own
ed by Herman Kirscht, whose loss
will probably amount to $1,000. Both
are partly covered by insurance. The
structure is a double frame one, and
is also occupied by Harry c. Palmer,
who conducts a meat market, and the
Brooks Photograph Studio. Neither
of the latter places were touched by
the blaze or the smoke. 1t is consid-
cred remarkable that the firemen had
the fire under control SO quickly and
only Mrs. Winch's quick wit averted
a fire that might have wiped out sew
eral buildings in the heart of the bus
mess section of the city.
1t has not been determined whether
the fire started from a furnace or from
insulation having worn from electric
wires in the house.

forty acres of gently rolling ground,
shaded by giant trees, and interlaced
with magnificently wide and well kept

News Stand Renovated

The Union News Stand located at
the Electric Station has taken on a
spring-like appearance. The stand has
been ~re-decorated. Magazines cover
the front and sides of the stand. A
new line Of magazines, periodicals,
cigars and candies have been added to
the list, and at the present time they
are ready to supply the needs of their
numerous customers. The inside has
been re-modeled and the old fixtures
have been replaced by new ones, which
makes a far better display of the
stock. This stand was opened in 1911
by the present agent, Teddy Merrick,
with a small portable stand. The bust
ness grew until it was necessary to
erect the present stand, and should the
business continue to grow as 1t has in
the past, it will be necessary to further
enlarge the place of business.

Notes

What is a Boy Scout?


A scout! He enjoys ashike through
the woods more than he does a walk
over the city's streets. He can tell
north or south or east or west by the
signs. He can tie a knot that VIII
hold, he can climb a tree which seems
impossible to others, he can swim a
river, he can pitch a tent, he can mend
a tear in his trousers, he can tell you
which fruits and seeds are poisonous
and which are not, he can sight u
bearing trees from a distance; il living
near ocean or lake he can reef a sail
or take his trick at the wheel, and II
neal any body of water at all he can
pull an oar or use paddles and SOULS;
in the woods he knows the names OF
birds and animals; in the water he
tells you the different varieties of fish.
A scout walks through the woods
with silent tread. No dry twigs snap
under his feet and no loose stones turn
over and throw him off his balance.
His eyes are keen and he sees many
things that others do not see. He sees
tracks and signs which reveal to him
the nature and habits of the creatures
that made them. He knows how to
stalk birds and animals and study
them in their natural haunts. He sees
much, but is little seen.
A scout, like an old frontiersman,
does not shout his wisdom from the
housetops. He possesses the quiet
power that come from knowledge. He
speaks softly and answers questions
modestly. He knows a braggart but
he does not challenge him, allowing
the boaster to expose his ignorance by
his W loose-wagging tongue.
Troop Seven, Salem M. e. Church.
Troop seven held their first over.
