Large Crowd Enjoys FINE ENTER
tainment at Hancock Hall.
The musical comedy, "The Rev
erend Dayton-up-to-Date, was
presented at Hancock hall Wednes-
day evening, Feb. "a, to a full
house. The comedy was given under
the auspices of the Thursday club OF
the Congregational church. The
audience was kept in a continuous
laugh by the humorous acting OF the
PLAYERS. Each member of the cast
seemed to be naturally adapted to
his or her part, making the program
appear realistic from start to finish
The chorus, composed of elgh-
teen voices, was thoroughly enjoyed,
and the various vocal combinations
were fine, receiving many encores,
At the close of the comedy, Mr..
Brookes spoke a few words of thanks
to the people for their strong support
of the program, and also spoke OF
the great assistance rendered by Mrs
Harriet K. Giles. who had charge or
the play, and Miss May Bonsey,
director of the music. This state
ment brought forth another round
of applause from the audience,
which had appreciated one of the
best entertainments presented IN
Hancock hall this winter

The Ellsworth town team made a
strong comeback Friday night at
Hancock hall, in the second game
with the Chrysers The game was
rough throughout, Ellsworth start
ing with a lead and holding it for all
four periods
In the first period the local boys
led 10 to 4, in the second 10 to g; In
the third IA to and wound up the
game 16 to 10.
1t was thought at first that the
town boys would have to have out
side men in the lineup, as two or
their players were disabled. But
the game was played throughout by
an Ellsworth team.
In the last few minutes OF the
game, the Ellsworth boys gave
brief demonstration Of rapid passing.
They kept the ball flying for awhile,
and the Chryslers were unable TO
gain possession of it.
Now the fans are waiting for the
rubber, when the true mettle of both
teams will be proven. Following is

crocuses embroidered in fine woods
that give the effect of flowers growing
on grassy field. The belt where it
is used, is often regarded simply as a
decoration and is made as loose as the
frock without holding it in at all.
Large and small-checked materials are
most popular for children's clothes, for
they need no trimming of any kind.
Party frocks are developed in light
colored velvet, satin, crepe de chine,
taffeta toile de sole and chiffon. The
sheer fabrics are trimmed with plaits,
gathers and shocking. Ribbon is very
popular as trimming 1t is plated or
gathered into tiny founces. cockades
or rosettes, or it is looped in festoons
and sometimes used in long fringes.
Wooden mixtures in neutral tints,
burafyl, cheviot and granikellaine are
used for coats, which are worn with a
small stitched hat of the same mate
