CAN'T EXCITE THEM

During that week she had on
gagged a house on "A remote island
of The Massachusetts mainland
She had spent her childhood
among taciturn New Englandcrs.
She know that a house a1lre would
not excite them. She knew they
would show no sign that an
actress was IN their midst.
That thought had sustained her
for the rest Of the week. She was
on the eve, praise heaven, OF
being herself again, IS and not
minduu@. plain Of face and plain
of attire.
So Elsa, on the first morning of
her holiday. sang all the way
downstairs 10 the kitchen, smiled
at her happy face in the hall MR.
ror, had a cup OF coffee with cook
off the kitchen table. wrote down
things cook wanted, and Strolled
down 10 the center Of town, with
her market basket swinging. and
nobody giving her a second glance,
or trailing her for her autograph.
1t was wonderful.
Mr.. Potts, the butcher. was
wonderful, too. And so was Mr.
Peabody. the grocer. She gave
them her name and address. for
the things she couldn't carry, IN
her throbblng voice that was
known 10 every moVie-goer in the
land.
MIR Potts and Mr. Peabody said
they were happy 10 serve her.
That was all. Yet she sensed that
they knew who she was, but that
they weren't going to say so, be-
cause they figured if she'd wanted
to talk about il, she'd have
started the conversation. She
could have Rugged them.

DR.. E. NJ. HUDSON
GETS DIPLOMA
OF PHARMACY
Is Received Into The Semi Cen
tennialist Branch Of College
Alumni Association

DR.. Charles M. Hudson, pharmacist
of this city, received notification that
he had been received into the order
of "Semi- Centennialists", a branch of
the Alumni Association of the Phila-
delphia College Of Pharmacy and
Science. DR.. Hudson was a graduate
of the class of 81. The notification
of his membership in the Centennial
lists was accompanied by handsome
ly engraved certificate, or diploma,
signed by the President and Record
ing Secretary of the Alumni Associa-
ton.
A letter, accompanying the diploma,
contains the following interesting ex-
planation:
A few years ago, at the Annual
Meeting Day exercises, there was a.
warded to each graduate of fifty or
more years standing, present on that
occasion, a so-called diploma" as a
part of the fun. AS evidence that
the award was intended in part for
entertainment purposes, one need
only look over the wording of the
diploma, and need be told that the
first ones were on blueprint paper.
To our surprise, they were taken
seriously by the recipients, and we
soon learned that a number Of them
had been framed, and that others had
inspired more-or-less extended write
ups" in local newspapers; so we decid-
ed to continue the awards, but to have
more formal type of diploma"
but without change of wording.
1t is my great pleasure to inform
you that you have been awarded one
of them, and to enclose it herewith.
May it find you in good health and
spirits, may it recall only the pleas
ant features Of your college days on
Tenth Street, may it spur you on to
continued "honest-to-goodness" SER

HEAVY FIRE Loss ON
THE STEVENS FARM

Fire of unknown origin broke out
in the large barn on the farm of
John H. Stevens, formerly the Nc
Master farm, and the entire building
was destroyed with contents. Mr..
Stevens estimates his loss at $4,000
with only small amount of insur-
ance.
Along with the barn, seventeen or
eighteen head of cattle were consum-
ed in the flames. A lot of hay, corn,
barley, and farming implements went
up in smoke, and the fire company
in answering the call were unable to
save any of the property.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stevens were absent
from home at the time, and on re-
turning, they arrived just in time to
see the roof of the structure falling
in. A theory that the fire was the
result of spontaneous combustion,
arising from the freshly stored hay
and barley may be correct one.
