WHISPERINGS 
In the early morning of one of the 
coldest: days we have had recently, 
when the thermometer registered 4 
below zero, many of our early rising 
citizens were astonished to see one of 
Our prominent young business men 
wandering around the Trowt field 
wearing a straw hat. The first im- 
pression was that he must have unex- 
pectedly become a fit subject for 
Danvers, but later developments 
cleared the situation and has put him 
again in good standing in the commu- 
nity. It seems that the night before 
he visited the local barber shop and 
bad a long delayed hair cut, as a con- 
sequence of which his hat fitted quite 
loosely, and in passing the open space 
the strong wind blew it off into the 
field. An unsuccessful search in the 
dark was resumed in the morning, but 
before he set forth he was unsuccess- 
ful in finding a suitable head gear. 
The only article that could be found 
was an old straw hat. For fear that 
somebody would find the hat and 
carry it off, delay was not to be 
thought of, hence he went forth with 
this head gear that has brought down 
on him no end of ‘jollying,’” and 
alas ! to no purpose, for the derby hat 
is still missing. But the straw hat is 
also among the missing.
