Poor Helen is so tired" Mrs. Nor
row said caressingly. "She will get
rested presently"
But Helen Dean did not get rested.
Indeed. she faded day by day until 1t
could not longer be doubted that she
was about to leave the world alto
gether.
Mrs. Morrow's devotion was beau
tiful to behold. She never spared her
self in the service of her friend, and
Columbia got a new side Of her char
acter that touched them unaccount-
ably. Yet in the face Of pending sor.
row she continued to be radiant!
Don't you ever get blue or tired?"
demanded Miss Podd. She and Mrs.
Rose were calling on the two women.
Miss Dean lay on the couch in the
sunny window with that air Of wait
ing which was SO heartbreaking to
see.
Mrs. Morrow shook her head, smil

Il don't suppose there is another

The Radiant Woman.

Mrs. Morrow was the most envied
and the most admired woman in Co
lumbia. Yet she was neither young
nor beautiful. neither rich nor ac-
complished. She was. however, that
remarkable thing which we seldom
sea radiant woman.
She had come to Columbia for a
few casual weeks .one Summer, had
fallen in love with it, bought a home
for herself and stayed. The small
white. house back from the broad vii
lage street was charmingly modest,
and quite big enough for its single oc-
cupant and the guests she chose to
have there. Mrs. Morrow made no
display; she bought comfortable furni-
ture for her house, which she ar
ranged with taste. She had brought
nothing with her, not even a few
books, though she was fond of read
ing and soon had a we'll stocked book
case.
Everybody except Miss Podd accept
ed her on the instant, but then Miss
Podd never accepted anybody. She
was all the time studying Mrs. Nor
row, trying to get at her history.
There's something about her." she
said. shaking her head.
THAT you don't like?" asked Mrs.
Rose quickly.
II won't say that. There's some.
thing about her that-baffles me-"
Naomi Podd, you are a regular
Paul Pry in petticoats," laughed Mrs.
Rose. She was one of the few people
who could say what they thought to
Miss Podd.
Mrs. Morrow stirred things up in
Columbia. She gave afternoon teas,
for which she made the cakes, and
card parties and she had. people in to
dinner frequently. She seemed never
to get enough Of sociability and she
entertained delightfully."- But while she
was friendly with everybody she gave
no one her inmost confidence. One
felt, like Miss Podd, that she withheld
good deal. though she apparently
told everything about herself. She had
married young, her husband had lived
nine years, she had child and lost it,
and she wasn't anchored fast to any
particular place on earth. She liked
Columbia, and she was going to stay
there If the people would let her.
There was no doubt about their
wanting her to stay when she gave
them all such good times. Neighbor-
illness was an instinct with her, it
seemed; she "neighbored" everybody.
She had nothing that was not at the
command of her friends at any time
And her radiance made her refreshing
as q bunch of flowers or a ray of
sunshine wherever she went
Her radiance made people envy
while they admired her. She was all
joy, all good health, all sweetness.
Her eyes shone, her lips smiled, she
laughed like chime of silver bells.
she could tell the funniest stories you
ever heard and she could find fun
everywhere. Nothing so bright or
Frightening as she had even been in
Columbia. One forgot that she
weighed 1870 pounds and had not a
good figure, that her hair was gray

Rev. Mr.. Gay has been in the do,
cese Of Maine only about year ana
the people of Hallowell have never
before had the opportunity ana pri-
vilege of hearing him. In the cary
days of his ministry, he worked III
the country and mountainous dis
tricts of New Brunswick, and so came
to have a great love and consider
alton for those isolated people VINO
are deprived of contact with the
Church and its services. Coming 70
Maine from city parish in ONO, ne
found himself once more where ne
could carry on a work very similar
to that which he had carried on IN
Canada. With his headquarters IN

who, in lonely farmhouses, have been
cut of contact with religion for years,
not having any church near them or

Augusta Club Holds
Annual BANQUET

The Ball Bird Club of Augusta held
it's annual banquet and guest night at
the Worster, Hallowell, last evening
The dining room presented a very at
tractive appearance. Red pinks and
freezias were used most effectively on
the tables. The place cards were dec
Grated with a tiny red cardinal and
with a red candle. Unusually attrac-
tive nature booklets, the work and
gift of Mrs. f. w. Pittman of Win
throp, were at each place. These had
each an individual and appropriate ma
ture quotation. Mrs. Pittman and her
daughter, Miss Helen Pittman, were
guests of the club for the evening.
Fifty-three members and guests sat
down to the banquet. 1t was gentle
mems night as well as guest night.
Hills orchestra of Augusta played
during the meal. The president of the
club, Mrs. George Patten. was at the
head of the reception committee and
welcomed the guests. Other commit
tee chairmen responsible for the splen-
did banquet and entertainment were
Music, Mrs. Harry Kenworthy: enter
tainment, Mrs. Harry Thompson; deco
rations, Mrs. John Lane. The attrac-
tive place cards were the work of Mrs
Thompson.
The club had the entire Worster din
ing room to themselves, and music and
speeches enlivened the dinner. The
'toastmistress was Mrs. Frank Ball.
past president of the club. There were
a number of three-minute after-dinner
speeches. Mrs. w. r. Pattangall spoke
very pleasingly on Hobbies" She
showed the value of hobbies, especially
to those whose first enthusiasrns of
youth have fed. In her brief remarks
she presented fine case for hobbies
superintendent Burrll of Augusta
spoke of what might be done in teach
ing about birds in the public schools.
He was interesting and practical. ap-
proving heartily of such nature in
struction but pointing out the difficult
ties in point of time allowance Ken
meth Lee gave some of his experiences
acting as fire warden and added the
personal touch. Mrs. Pittman of Win
throp also spoke of nature study with
interest and enthusiasm. She is an
authority on the subject and was heard
with pleasure.
The paper of the evening was given
by Mrs. Gertrude E. V. Alexander of
Hallowell. Her theme was Songs of
the Night" She dealt in most inter-
esting fashion with the night song
birds, taking up among others, the
various thrushes. the robin, the vesper
sparrow, the ovenbird, the chimney
swift, the wood pewee, the mocking
bird, the nighthawks owls and looms
Her list of night singers was far full
er than anyone not a bird student
might expect. She spoke from the
personal standpoint of actual observ-
alton and introduced interesting anec-
dotes. Her paper was a real contrbu-
ton to this happy occasion.

Electric Wednesday

afternoon at 215 by the Waterville-

the crossing and switch below Temple
street Mr. Varney's home is just
across the street and he was appar-
emily crossing and stepped in front of
the car without realizing that it was
in motion. He is said to be deaf,
which perhaps accounts for the acct
dent. He has had several near es-
capes before. He was badly bruised
and his head cut. He was removed to
