Rev. Dr. Walter S. Eaton will, as 
usual, occupy the pulpit at the Village 
church Sunday morning. His sub- 
ject will be “Redeeming the Time.” 
Mrs. D. C. Ballou entertained the 
Lend-a-hand club at her home on 
Magnolia avenue this week. The 
meeting before was held at Mrs. 
Frank Abbott’s home. 
Mrs. Rebecca Colfelt arrived in 
Magnolia for a long stay at the Stan- 
ley cottage Monday evening. Mrs. 
Colfelt has kept the cottage open all 
winter, but has herself been spend- 
ing the time in California. 
Magnolia has not escaped the epi- 
demic of grippe that prevails through- 
out this part of the country and there 
are several quite serious cases. Among 
them is that of Mrs. E. L. Story, 
who has been ill at her home here 
for some time. . 
Owing to the rain the audience at 
the Village church last Sunday even- 
ing was not as large as usual, but the 
interesting, instructive and able lec- 
ture on ‘Albania and the War,” by 
Rev. Fan S. Noli was greatly enjoy- 
ed and appreciated by those who 
were fortunate enough to hear it. 
Basketball for the boys has been a 
favorite recreation for the boys of 
Magnolia this winter and under the 
coaching of Frederick Dunbar there 
have been some interesting games at 
the Women’s clubhouse where they 
have been playing. Last week the 
Thornton club followed suit and with 
Miss Rose Nelson of the Gloucester 
High School team as instructor, met 
at the Women’s club for practice last 
Saturday afternoon. 
The Women’s clubhouse was the 
scene of a party that included all the 
boys and girls and the mothers, of 
the village, last Friday evening when 
Mrs. Rebecca Colfelt gave the mem- 
bers of the Blynman and Thornton 
clubs one of the most delightful even- 
ings of the winter. The boys and 
girls danced and played games and 
the mothers did the chaperoning. An 
affair that is being anticipated with a 
great deal of pleasure is to take place 
at the same clubhouse Saturday even- 
ing, February 12, in observance of 
St. Valentine’s Day. The Foster club

is to entertain at a fancy dress danc- 
ing party. There will be music by 
Carey’s orchestra. 
Ordway Tead is to be the speaker 
at the Village church Sunday evening. 
Mr. Tead is a speaker of marked 
ability and even without considering 
his subject any audience would be 
sure to spend a pleasant evening lis- 
tening to him. But when Mr. Tead 
speaks upon the subject nearest to 
him, any audience is sure to find the 
evening profitable as well as interest- 
ing. The speaker is thoroughly fam- 
iliar with the theory and practice of 
settlement work in its many phases 
and is in touch with large social and 
industrial problems of the day. Mr. 
Tead was graduated from Amherst in 
1912, and received several honors in 
speaking. He has since been in resi- 
dence at the South End House; he is 
acting-secretary for the Massachu- 
setts Committee on Unemployment, 
and is actively interested in unem- 
ployment insurance and in the New 
England work of the Intercollegiate 
Socialist Society. Some of his lec- 
tures are: Democracy and the In- 
dustrial Conflict, How Can We Real- 
ize the American Tradition? The 
Principles of Progress, Getting Rid 
of Unemployment, and What Are 
Settlements For?

Magnolia people will be interested 
in the play that the Blynman club, a 
rather new. organization having for 
its members 22 boys from 9 to 15 
years of age, are preparing to give the - 
latter part of this month or early in 
March. The proceeds are to be used 
for the study of state politics. The 
first step in this interesting move will 
be a visit to the State House under 
the guidance of Rep. Harry C. Foster. — 
The Blynman club is having a busy 
winter with its basketball and the 
wood work in which it is interested 
and this new study will doubtless — 
prove very profitable. 4 
Dip’nt Dare Come Back. 
Sheridan was once staying at the 
house of an elderly maiden lady in 
the country, who wanted more of his’ 
company than he was willing to give. 
Proposing one day to take a stroll 
with him, he excused himself to her 
on account of the badness of the 
weather. Shortly afterward she 
caught him sneaking out alone. : 
“So, Mr. Sheridan,” said she, “it 
has cleared up?” , 
“Just a little, ma’am—enough for 
one, but not enough for two!”
