Mrs. Rebecca Colfelt spent last 
week at the Stanley cottage before 
returning to the city, probably for the 
-rest of the winter. 
Usual service will be held at the 
Village church next Sunday morning 
with sermon by the pastor. John 
Bancroft Bisbee will give a lecture in 
the evening, ‘With Dr. Grenfell in 
Labrador.” 
The Thornton club were guests at 
Mrs. Colfelt’s home here last evening 
for a graphaphone concert and party, 
and the occasion proved a pleasant 
one for the little girls. A similar 
party was given a short time ago for 
the boys in the Blynman club. 
The February party of the Ladies’ 
Aid society was held in the evening 
the 
of Washington’s Birthday at 
Women’s clubhouse on the Shore 
road and was very successful. At 
half-past six a supper was served by 
the committee in charge, of which 
Mrs. Lafayette Hunt was chairman. 
Dancing was the entertainment of the 
evening. 
The Blynman club made up of the 
boys of the village is planning a min- 
strel show for next Tuesday evening, 
February 29, and it promises to be 
well worth attending. Mrs. H. C. 
Foster and Gilbert Crispin have been 
in charge of the rehearsals and Miss 
Edna Symonds is furnishing the mu- 
sic for the occasion. Tickets, which 
may be procured from members of 
the club, are 25 cents. 
The Foster club is to meet this 
evening at the home of Mrs. H. C. 
Foster, Summer st. The club is in- 
terested in a trip to Boston for the 
entire membership, and to this end 
has been raising money this winter. 
The cake and candy sale which was 
given on the evening of the Parent- 
Teacher meeting netted about $15. 
The club has had a busy season, doing 
a little sewing for the soldiers and is 
now planning some work for the Dis- 
trict Nursing Association of Glou- 
cester. 
Employer—Here, you! I thought 
you said you’d rise with the lark? 
Employee—That was my intention, 
but I couldn’t find any larks.

FARMERS WEEK. ‘ 
From March 13 to 17 the seventh 
annual Farmers’ Week will be held 
by the Massachusetts Agricultural 
College at Amherst for the purpose 
of stimulating interest in this import- 
ant branch of state industry. Owing 
to the prevalence of the foot and 
mouth disease the program for last 
year was cancelled. It is said that 
1600 persons attended the exhibits 
and lectures the previous year and a 
much larger number is looked for this 
year. The program consists of con- 
ferences with agricultural experts, 
lectures and demonstrations, exhibits 
of the college facilities for assisting 
farmers, and general agricultural ex- 
hibits. The extension work of the 
college is growing yearly and is play- 
ing an important part in building up 
friendly relations between agricultur- 
ists and the college. 
REBECCA OF SUNNYBROOK FARM. 
Perhaps the most charming girl 
heroine of the last two decades is the 
little New England miss, Rebecca 
Rowena. Randall, the central figure 
of Kate Douglas Wiggin’s very pop- 
ular books, “Rebecca of Sunnybrook 
Farm,” and “The Chronicles of Re- 
becca,” both of which works have 
been drawn upon in a dramatization, 
Notary Public 
by the author and Charlotte ‘I homp- 
son, called “Rebecca of Sunnybrook 
Farm,” which is to be seen at the — 
Empire theatre, Salem, the week of — 
Feb. 28. 
This play sets forth the adventures 
of Rebecca from the time of her ar- — 
rival in the home of her aunts, Mir- 
anda and Jane Sawyer, until she falls 
in love with her hero knight. During 
the acts an opportunity will be given 
to see the genial and lively life of the - 
children who grow up under the 
shadow of stern Puritan influence. 
As a contrast to the group of merry- 
hearted children who run riot through 
the four acts there are the austere 
aunts of Rebecca, and several other 
brisk New Englanders, who finally 
melt in the sunshine of Rebecca’s 
smile and winning ways. 
FasHION PHILosopHy. 
“Europe used to set the fashions 
for the world.” 
“Yes,” replied Miss Cayenne; “but 
the fashions of one decade become 
the horrible examples of the next.” 
“T hear our new cook made a bad 
break today, Ella. Did she forget +o 
serve the soup?” 
“It was a worse break than that. — 
My best china!”
