 The group held a mock trial. and in spite of having only one rehearsal the affair went quite well. The parts talk en by some of the boys were so comical as to cause some of the other actors to burst out laughing. The names of the characters also were novel if not quite in harmony with the persons named, as, for instance, R. F. Johnson was known as Y. B. Small. The group is hoping to have another Ladies' Night in April to celebrate the first anniver- sary of the group.
 The group had their pictures taken last Sunday afternoon and the basket ball team also did the Hook pretty act
 Frank Tourtellotte and Raymond C. Johnson, who were sick for the past week. are quite well again.
 The ha ket ball team is to go to So. Willington Friday night and to Cen tral Village Saturday. These are two tough games. but the boys are hoping for a couple of wins.
 A game is pending with the As sumption College team of Worcester. This game, if it can be arranged. will prove good drawing card. as A. Au- coin of Grosvenordale, a student at Assumption. is one of the stars on that team.

The church needs reshingi- ing and the advisability of using asbestos or something in that line is being considered. Very few of the former members of this church are left.

The Comrades again demonstrated their complete superiority over the Thompson quintet in the town hall on Wednesday evening by a clean cut 34 to 24 victory.
