band and wife. There are three 
standard laws used over the world: 
civil, Roman and common law. Re- 
vised laws are at the legislature for 
reference. Americans use the com- 
mon law. The common law remains 
the same unless changed by amend- 
ments. 
Miss Fall spoke at length on wills. 
She emphasized the importance of 
one’s making their will at once. 
Many leave this very important 
document to some crucial period in 
life through the prevalent supersti- 
tion that it is one’s death warrant. 
t is a grave mistake because one’s 
very best intentions miscarry when 
a will is quickly and not clearly 
made. If a person dies intestate 
there is no will, testate there was a 
will. Heirs to wills are lineal des- 
cendants (father and mother) col- 
lateral (brothers and sisters) dis- 
tant relatives and friends, next of 
kin. 
Words in wills must have a clear, 
fixed meaning or else the fine tech- 
nicalities of the law can be used to 
divert them in most unheard of 
ways. In a codicil of a will, which 
is really a baby will, just as much 
formality is required; also in mu- 
tual wills between two parties plan- 
ning to make property over to one 
another in case of death. To regis- 
ter a will go to the probate court 
of your district, pay one dollar 
($1.00) and receive a certificate of 
its registration. 
Miss Fall compared the modern 
and primitive causes for divorce. 
She also gave many pointers in the 
specific way evidence should be 
given. 
Miss Fall’s other topic was the in- 
heritance tax, dealing with amounts 
and percentages which must be paid 
by those inheriting property. Law- 
yer Fall’s extended address was re- 
plete with knowledge of the law 
most necessary every day to every 
woman.

Stereopticon Lecture in Congrega- 
tional Chapel 
The steropticon lecture by Charles 
E. Greeley of Boston, given under 
the auspices of the Ladies’ Social 
circle at the Congregational chapel 
on Wednesday evening, March 6th, 
was a decided success. In introdue- 
ing the speaker Rev. Louis H. Ruge 
said that the name of Horace Gree- 
ley was one of the great names of 
American history and that it gave 
Mr. Ruge pleasure to present to the 
audience a direct descendant of this 
famous man of letters in the lec- 
turer of the evening. Miss Dora 
Marshall rendered a piano solo with 
the pleasing touch and skill so char- 
acteristic of her playing. Mrs. Ray- 
mond Allen sang two solos during 
the course of the program, which is 
always a great treat when Mrs. AlI- 
len so favors Manchester. 
Mr. Greeley’s ‘‘ Travel Talks ”’ 
were three selected from the course 
he will deliver at the exposition of 
the ‘‘Worcester Woman’s club.’’ 
They embraced a tour of the coffee 
belt around the world, Washington, 
D. C., winding up with a trip 
through the extensive and _ perfect 
plant of the Dwinell-Wright coffee 
and spice mills of Boston, the man- 
ufacturers of the famous ‘‘ White 
House Coffee.’’ Mr. Greeley is a 
very pleasing speaker and was ably 
assisted by Mrs. Greeley. 
A surprise was sprung upon the 
audience during the display of 
opaque pictures when Helen, the lit- 
tle daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hollis 
Roberts, appeared upon the screen 
as the first depositor of the ‘‘ Man- 
chester Trust Co.’’ Pictures of the 
Manchester Boy Scouts in camp also 
appeared and it was an oceasion for 
rounds of applause.

portant sale of lots April 18, on

chandise stores, two meat markets,
