SHOWER

About thirty young friends
of Miss Yvonne Dubois gave
her a great surprise last Friday
evening, when she was called
to the home of Mrs Norman
Samson, which at the time was
in total darkness, but upon en-
tering the parlor they were in
stantly illuminated, showing
beautiful display of gifts, being
a miscellaneous shower. There
were many useful articles. An
umbrella was suspended under
the chandelier covered with
red and yellow crepe, each
package being fastened to the
umbrella from the table, under
meath. After the bride-to-be
opened the packages and they
were duly admired and appre-
ciated. Music and refresh
ments closed a very enjoyable
evening.

more attractive for the evening
by a large number of Japa-
nese lanterns suspended from
the verandas and trees, also a
large electric light was install
ed for the occasion. The chill
drens fish pond, the fudge ia
BILE, and the the gypsy tent, all
contributed to the amusement,
and entertainment of those pre-
sent. The gypsy tent, giving
the touch of romance and mys-
terry, which amuses for the time
being. Harvey's orchestra dis
persed music at intervals dur
ing the evening. Selections
were given of classical music
by Mrs Jefts, Mrs Carr, and
Ethel Fitzgerald, Mrs Amey,

The epidemic of dengue which
started here about two months ago,
is apparently nearing an end, as only
a few cases are now known to exist.
1t is roughly estimated that, during
its prevalence, about one hundred
people, young and old, black and
white, were attacked. OF these
scarcely third sought the attention
of the doctors, the majority resort,

While digging a ditch back OF his
mercantile block, Saturday, Captain
w. H. Johnson struck flow of oil
which he insists is genuine petro-
leum, but he is not at all excited
about it. The oil is still oOzng into
the ditch and it smells like creosoto.
It's origin has not been determined; it
cannot be attributed to any ADVENT
tious circumstances, and the only rca-
Isonable explanation Of it is that it is
a natural flow Now, wouldn't it be
perfectly horrid if the business sec
tion of this lovely town should be
messed up with petroleum?

Z Young or old. work doesn't

5t.sIt's the various kinds OF fool

of work, that hurt them.
-'One Of the greatest evils Of
modern life is the growing hab-3
1t OF regarding work as an Attic
ton. When I was a youngster,
boys wanted to work. II they
went to school, they did odd
jobs out OF. school hours. In va
cations they tried to get steady
employment. It was good for
them, mentally and physically.
BY the time they left school they
had formed habits of industry
and knew something OF the value
OF earned money.
A great deal of the trouble to-
day is with the mothers. Too
many boys are being brought up
bysentimental women. The first
fifteen or twenty years OF their
lives are spent in playing. That's
all they do; at least, a great

of give and take all the time. How
were my early experiments made
possible? Because Of Mr.. Libbey's
backing. How were the machines
introduced? Because he furnished
the capital. We always have had
engineers to help work out the me-
chanica1 problems. We have bought
other mems ideas when they would
be useful to US. And SO it goes.
The basic ideas were mine. The

now for blowing up the rubber

glass was then inserted in a

the raw materials we work with are
