The members of the sophomore class of
the Belfast high school enjoyed class
ride to Rock1and. Wednesday, May Gath.
A picnic lunch was taken and the trip
made in large truck. Mrs. S. A. Par
ker, teacher of English in the school, ac-
companied the party.
Among the Waldo county people elect
ed to office at the annual meeting of the
Grand Chapter, Order of the Eastern
Star, held in Portland last week, was
Leslie D. Ames of Lincolnville as Grand
Patron and Mrs. Julia A. Vickery of Bel
fast as Associate Grand Conductress.
The neat little Ford coupe for Miss
Sadie M. Nickersop, district nurse, free
will offering from many who recognize
her unusual worth to Belfast, arrived
Wednesday and was used by her Thurs
day. 1t is not only time saver. but
will conserve her energy. which is more
important. Her work in the past few
weeks has taken her into East Belfast, to
Citypoint, over Congress street extension
and down Northport avenue, as well az
on many of the city streets. Faithful in
the highest degree to all her cases, it has
seemed more than one person could ac-
complish. The coupe arrived at very
opportune time and she is very apprecia-
tive of it and the good will that made il
possible.

largely of bill for board of child, 500.
and medical attendance. 500.
THE PITCHER SCHOOL WILL ENTER
TAIN. The Pitcher school will have an
entertainment tomorrow. Friday, the
closing afternoon. The only regret the
children have is that their popular teach
er, Mrs. Harrison Farrow, who has been
with them for the past four yeara, has
resigned and completes her work thie
term. They will have ice cream and
candy for sale to add to their fund for
pur chasing records for their Victor Talk
ing Machine which they recently bought.
These with their school organ will be
used for the Daily Dozen numbers, fol
chorus selections of patriotic numbers.
The children will have two dialogues and
number of recitations. Several charac-
ter songs will be pleasing feature There
are i6 children attending this term.

"EAsT is WEST AT GRAND *
THEATRE OPENING SUNDAY

- Just as "Smilin'. Through" was
Norma Talmadge's first really big
production, so does the forthcoming
presentation of "East Is West" mark
sister .Constance's debut in the field
of drama and famous play adapta-
tions. Ever since ."East Is West"
completed its two year run on Broad
way and proceeded to create fur
ther records as road show, it has
been held as prize for some screen.
star who wished to do something of
a sensational nature and would pay
the price.
Sidney A. Franklin, who directed
*Smilin' Through and also this
production, has invested it with a
wealth of gorgeous Chinese back
grounds and general technical ex-
cellence in keeping with what Miss
Talmadge provides. 'East Is West"
will be seen as First National at
traction at the Grand theatre open
ing Sunday.
