Few Franks Attempted
As Halloween Passes

AS has been the case in Gardiner
for the past few years Halloween
passed very quietly. there being very
few depradations such as marked
previous years. OF course there were
a half dozen bands of youngsters
who caused some damage but 1t
was nothing to compare with that OF
a decade ago. The hose wagon
stored underneath the old steamer
house at New Mills was taken out
and pushed some distance, and some
of the boys from the Central station
were notified and went up and put the
wagon back where it belonged. One
sight that greeted churchgoers on
Sunday morning was the five street
signs from Brunswick avenue neatly
arranged on the stone steps Of the
Gardiner Shrine Club building. They
had evidently been removed from
the various trees and poles along the
avenue but they were not damaged.
Some residents who still have fenc-
es about their premises found the
gates removed, and the usual small
annoyances such as doorbells being
stuck" and jock o. lanterns peering
in at windows. Several parties were
in progress during the evening and
in short Halloween this year was
observed principally at home.

Mystery Play at Coliseum Tonight

One of the best mystery plays of
late years is 1.-The Spider" the three
act play which will be presented by
the ever popular Henry Carleton
Players this week. Every new trick
of state mechanism has been incor-
porated into this thrilling drama.
Four people meet after the death OF
a relative to hear the will read and
what happens in this weird house
makes three acts of hair raising
suspense. The identity of THE
Spider" is unknown until the last
minute of the play, but the author
has done we'll with his subject, and
not one item of state generalship
has been overlooked. All the ia
vorites will appear in this absorb
ing offering, and Miss Martin. Miss
Mayo, Miss Kyles, Mr.. Lloyd, Mr..
Kearney, Mr.. Mcdonald, and Mr..
Hebert will be seen in congenial
roles. If you have seen THE Bat"
or THE Cat and the Canary" come
and see The Spider" at half the
cost and three times the value of
your money.

Morning Services at the Old South

The first service in the newly dec-
GRATED auditorium of the Old South
Church was held Sunday morning.
The service was appropriate in chart
aeter to the occasion. The church
walls were most attractive, done in
soft tones of brown. There was spe-
cal music for the occasion, two an
thems by the Chorus choir One, "As
the Hart Panteth After the Water
Brooks" was unusually effective.
The pastor preached on the general
subject of the church of Christ. He
declared that the foundations of the
church were solid, that the walls of
the sanctuary had been made beauti-
full, but that the living church. the
men and women of the Old South,
should progress, making of them
selves and the church more and more
a force for righteousness In the COM
munity. The churches should place
less emphasis on creeds and more on
the fight against sin. "By their
deeds, not by their creeds shall We
know them" The sermon closed with
ringing appeal to the church, fol-
lowed by the quotation Of a stately
hymn of the church and its duties
and privileges. Communion followed.
