Miss Evelyn Harrington has been en-
tertaining a Miss Hamilton from Hunt
ington. w. Va.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ebe II. Reynolds enter
tanned two tables of 500 at the home of
the latter's parents Mr.. and Mrs. John
5. Harrington. ON Weiner avenue, last
Tuesday evening. Refreshments were
served and everyone reported a fine time.
Town Council has called for citizens
meeting for tonight at the Town Hall,
for the purpose of discussing the best
> routes for the proposed new road to en-
ter Harrington; so, that when the sur
Veyors arrive the route will have been
discussed and all settled. This is mat
ter that should interest every business
man of the town and they should be
there in large numbers. Tourists in pass
ing through our town would naturally
drop a few dollars in the Golfers of our
merchants. There seems to be an agi-
tatiOn out to have the road take back
course in coming through Harrington,
but personally for the best interests of
all concerned think the route should be
laid out right down Commerce street.
Box and shadow social, with dancing
slater in the evening, is to be held in
Slaughter's Hall. on Saturday evening,
February 4th. This social evening is be-
ing arranged by Harrington Post No. 8,
American Legion. The boys have organ
lied with a larger membership then ever
before and are trying hard to raise mon
ey to buy a fine American flag and a set
of post colors. This is a worthy cause
and we trust that every young lady will !
fall in i'm nd OF T,o--
to sell. or come prepared to sell her
shadow. If you do not care to bring a
box, bake a box of home made candy,
and we will sell that. Ice cream and cake
also for sale. We may not get to ask
you personally for something for this af-
fair, but please do not wait to be asked;
just consider this notice your invitation
to help. Fred B. Greenley has been elect
ed the New Post Commander and is
ready to serve you in any way toward
making this affair a success.
