The first of the series of six lec- 
tures on Japan was,given at the Vil- 
lage church last evening. The sub- 
ject of the lecture was “The country 
of Japan,” illustrated by beautiful 
pictures of that renouned country. In 
order to help pay for the slides a sil- 
ver offering was taken. The next 
lectures will describe the country, 
people, customs, progress, etc. The 
date of the next lecture will,be an- 
nounced later.

The third meeting of the Choral 
society was held Tuesday evening at 
the church, under the direction of 
Arthur S. Wonson. Twenty-five mem- 
bers have been enrolled up to date, 
but it is thought that the membership 
will reach thirty-five before long. The 
four selections which the members en- 
joy very much and are working on 
now are “To Thee, O, Country’, by 
Julius Ejichberg; ‘Lead, Kindly 
Light”, Arthur Sullivan; “Lovely 
Appear’, from Gounod’s Redemption; 
‘Peasants’ Wedding March’, A. 
Soderman. 
Annual Meeting 
The annual business meeting of the 
Village church was held at the church 
last Monday evening, 383 members 
being present. The supper, consist- 
ing of cold meats, hot biscuits, cakes, 
pies, jellies and coffee, such as the 
Magnolia ladies are famous for, was 
served. After supper reports of the 
church officers were read. The treas- 
urer, Mrs. W. R. Boyd, reported $245 
as the balance in the treasury after all 
bills were paid. The pastor spoke of 
the generous gifts which the church 
Bulbs 
has received from its friends among 
the summer residents, including the 
new pipe organ from Mrs. Rebecca 
Colefelt, a check for $200 from Mrs. 
H.M. Curry, and also Miss Godshalk’s 
lecture by which $200 more was re- 
ceived. He referred also to the new 
carpets which was presented to the 
church by the Ladies Aid society and 
the stereopticon which has been added 
to ‘the church equipment during the 
year. The membership has increased 
from 46 to 52. Herecommended that 
the church support better the Friday 
evening service, that it be more cor- 
dial to strangers and that the aim of 
the year be to deepen the spiritual 
life. The following officers were 
elected. 
Standing committee: Philemon 
Sanborn, Wm. L. Wilkins and Mrs. 
Frank F. Story ; deacon, Willard R. 
Boyd; asst. deacon, Fred S. Lycett ; 
deaconess, Mrs. John Wilkins; asst- 
deaconess, Mrs. Frank FE Story; 
treasurer, Mrs. W. R. Boyd; clerk, 
George A. Upton. 
Letters were read from absent 
members including Mr. and Mrs. 
Ernest Dunbar, Mrs. Orrin Sawyer, 
Miss Grace Story and others. Re- 
grets were read also from invited 
guests, including Mrs. Colefelt and 
Rev. and Mrs. Markham Stackpole. 
Tuesday’s Election 
- John B. Moran is elected Governor 
of Massachusetts so far as we are con- 
cerned here at Magnolia. He received 
42 votes to 30 for Guild, but unfortu- 
nately the 12 majority is over-balanced 
several times by the 31,662 plurality 
given Gov. Guild in the rest of the 
state. Brown was also the choice of 
the voters over Draper, 37 to 30. 
But this by no means shows the 
party strength of Magnolia. The 
normal vote here is Republican very 
nearly three to one. Cong. Gardner 
was given a rousing good vote — 54 to 
18 for Schofield; and James F. Shaw 
won 42 to 20. The complete vote is 
printed on another page alongside the 
Manchester vote.
