A Fine Supper and a Splendid
Entertainment

The supper and entertainment given on
Thursday evening last by the Ladies' Aid
had large attendance. Everybody knew
that the feast would be up to the usual
excellence and nobody was disappointed.
Well prepared and very nicely served, all
enjoyed it and partook heartily
After the Epicurus festivities had been
completed an entertainment was given in
the Sunday school room under the direc-
ton of Miss Phillips. All joined in sing
ing Star Spanged Banner" This was
followed with couple Of piano selections
by Miss Hooker, which were heartily ap-
plauded. The young lady is certainly an
artist in the manipulation of the worries.
Rev. Mr.. Mercer followed, giving reel.
Tation in true dramatic form and for an en-
= core gave Angelina johnson" to the de.
light Of all.
Mrs. IIa Niles Jackson of Morrisville,
a guest of Mrs. w. D. Strong, was called
upon impromptu and gave vocal solo,
and in response to great applause gave
another thrilling song. Miss Selma Strong
q accompanied these selections. More piano
music was then given by Miss Hooker and
Mrs. Jackson was again drafted and re-
sponded with two charming readings that
captivated her hearers. A song by the
audience completed most enjoyable en-
tertainment.
The Ladies Aid greatly appreciate Mrs
Jacl sons assistance in making the enter
tainment the success it was and the audi
ence greatly enjoyed the opportunity of
= listening to her artistic ability.
The suggestion is made "Why not an
entire evening with Mrs. Jackson?' We
are sure she would have large audience.

Two girls wanted pretty things they
couldn't afford and forged checks to
buy them. The rest we all know. We
know, too, the customary moral whose
truth cannot be gainsaid that pretty
things aren't worth that price. But
perhaps the moral for the girls isn't
the only moral. They live in the same
world the rest of us live in they got
their standards from general range of
standards about them. In that way
they have come to believe in the
transcendent Importance of pretty
things, says Milwaukee Journal. Have
we all been in cons piracy to give
young girls such a false sense of val
ues on this earth? Why don't those
of us who have had the pretty things
speak up oftener with the truth-that
they're the merest fringe of life and
when we hug them to our thoughts,
it's to help ourselves forget that we're
losing out on the big things?

Washington arrived in Elizabeth on
April %, just a week from the day he
set out from Mount Feynon. A pro
ptious gale" was blowing when the
party set out across Newark bay for
New York. A barge, built for the pur-
pose, and rowed by twelve old cap
tains of vessels who had retired from
business" conveyed the President and
party. The Oarsmen wore. white shirts
adorned with ribbons. One after an

feared some discourtesy, but. az the

signal at which flags of all nations
were burst into view, and from its bat
terry a salute of thirteen guns was
fired.
A large sloop Joined the procession
off Bedloes island, and as it neared
the barge the party of ladies and gen

ode appropriate to the occasion and
set to the music of God. Save the
King" The wharves from the Bat
terry to Wall street ferry. whore the
landing was made, were filed with
welcoming boats. Boudinot estimated
their number as tens of thousands. The
ferry stairs were carpeted and the rail

The President. preceded by the com

Governor Clinton AMI some of the fore

blocked with eager citizens that it

Washington won for himself the I'll
tie of "The Hero of Two Worlds"
