MAGNOLIA 
A course of three popular Sunday 
evening sermons on the best Bible 
stories is to begin at the Village church 
tomorrow evening. Ruth, Esther and 
Daniel are the three stories to be dis- 
cussed. The music will be in charge 
of the Young Folks’ choir, as during 
the previous course by Rev. Mr. Libby. 
All will be welcome. 
Cottages and rooms are letting well 
for the summer, and a good season is 
predicted by those who ought to know. 
The handsome new soda fountain 
recently installed in the drug store of 
A. M. Lycett & Son was formally 
started Tuesdy, when all customers 
drank free soda to the prosperity of 
the firm. 
Rev. M. W. Stackpole and family 
have taken the upper Alleyne cottage 
for the summer and will occupy it 
probably the latter part of May. 
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Foster of 
Winchester are in town over the week- 
end, guests of the former’s parents, 
Mr. and Mrs. Elbridge Foster. 
It will be a matter of interest to the 
Magnolia summer contingent to know 
that $1,000 has been appropriated for 
macadamizing Magnolia avenue. 
It is a common occurrence, espe- 
cially this time of the year, to see 
innumerable white caps off the shore, 
but the oldest fisherman hereabouts 
cannot remember of ever seeing any of 
them floating ashore. This, however, 
is just what happened one morning 
the first of the week, for strewn all 
along the beach were found a great 
number of caps. Instead of being 
white, however, these are black, and 
instead of water they were of felt. It 
is thought that either a bundle of the 
hats fell off a passing vessel or that 
they drifted in from some wreck along 
the coast.

They have been making a tour of 
Italy of late, and it was very proper 
that they should stop at an “Italiani 
Ristoranti’”’ to dine. This they did 
this week, and a delightful meal was 
served. After supper Rev. Mr. Libby 
read a story of six chapters on Italian 
life, written by different members of 
the class. The meeting was very well 
attended.

The singing at the Village church 
last Sunday has been highly compli- 
mented on all sides. An anthem was 
included in the services in the morn- 
ing, while the concert in the evening 
was exceptionally good. Easter plants, 
which made a very pretty effect, were 
distributed tothe children of the parish 
after the evening service. The plants 
were very kindly presented to the 
church by one of the summer resi- 
dents. 
Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton have opened 
their cottage for the summer.
