A Christmas concert with special 
music; recitations and singing by the 
members of the Sunday School; a 
Christmas tree with gifts for the 
Sunday School children will be held 
at the Village church next Friday 
evening. 
Miss Judith Hampton Lindon has 
been secured as the entertainer Sun- 
day evening at the Village church, 
and her evening is sure to be one well 
worth remembrance. Miss Lindon 
was born in Washington, Georgia, a 
sleepy, little Southern town, where 
the fast disappearing type of the 
negro is still to be found. She grew 
up in the charming atmosphere of 
Southern tradition and manner and 
is peculiarly fitted for her particular 
branch of work. She is perpetuating 
the songs and stories of the black 
race and of their plantation life, and 
many of her pieces have never ap- 
peared in print. In addition to these 
qualities of her work, Miss Lindon 
is interesting for her own sake; she 
is attractive and has a remarkable 
Quite a number of Magnolia peo- 
ple gathered at the station Wednes- 
day morning to see Dennis C. Ballou 
and his party off on their way to 
Alaska. The party included Mr. 
Ballou, his half-brothers, Robert and 
George, and Ralph Richardson. They 
are going to Shagway for mining 
operations, and Mr. Ballou, at least, 
will be there for a year. The stay 
of the others is indefinite and may 
be permanent. They are leaving 
a place in the community and 
in the hearts of their friends that 
will not be soon filled. Mr. Dennis 
Ballou has been in business with H. 
W. Brown of this village for more 
than a decade. Mr. Richardson 13 
the son of W. B. Richardson of 
Western ave. Many pleasant things 
were done for the whole party be- 
fore their departure, and they were 
accompanied as far as Boston by 
Mrs. D, C. Ballou, Miss Eleanor 
Ballou, and Mrs. W. B. Richardson.

The Village church was well filled 
last Sunday night when Albert R. 
Lovejoy of Boston gave the second 
program in the winter series. Mr. 
Lovejoy’s style was sincere and ver- 
satile and his selections were well 
chosen with a view to pleasing many. 
He pleased everyone and his last 
reading, “Council Assigned,” by 
Mary Shipman Andrews, was espe- 
cially fine. It was a story of the 
earlier and less well known days of 
Lincoln’s life and portrayed the 
character of the man with a fineness 
of perception that made him live 
again. Mr. Lovejoy was, perhaps, at 
his best in this number, although his 
humorous selections were delightful, 
particularly his “Elkanah B. Atkin- 
son” by Holman F. Day. The other 
Notary Public 
readings were three of T. A. Daly’s 
Italian dialect poems, “Joy,” “A Deal 
in Bananas,” and “Da Leetla Boy.” 
The first two were wholly humorous 
and Mr. Lovejoy did them justice, 
and did not fail to bring home to his 
audience the paths of “Da Leetla 
Boy.” He told two Scotch anecdotes 
and two Irish stories that were very 
well received. A monologue, ”Pro 
and Con,” by Leland Powers was 
rather newer than his other things 
and was exceedingly successful. The 
lines were clever and had plenty of 
action. The other number that Mr. 
‘Lovejoy gave was another of Day’s 
delightful Maine tales, “The Rhyme 
of the Kennebec Mariner.”
