circle of the Congregational church
were invited to meet with Mr. and

was made still more pleasant by the
presence of several old residents-Aot
Coventry, now residing in Barton and
Orleans. A charming addition to . , the
short program was vocal music by
Miss Marion Redfield of Barton. The
former home of Mr. and Mrs. Webster

closed. And Mr." and Mrs. Webster

tion that it was not safe to invite

Geese Like Grazing Land.
(ieese live almost entirely by graz
ing. Marsh lands that grow a plentiful
supply of succulent grasses are ex-el
lent for them, provided such lands are
adjacent to higher places where othei
grasses grow. A mixture of the grass
growing in the marsh lands. and that
on the rough hillside makes a better
ration for them than either kind alone
In almost every locality there are
rough or waste lands that cannot be
cultivated. These might be made prof
itable if used for pasturing geese.
Marshy lands furnish a supply not only
of rich, juicy grasses, but of snails,
water beetles, worms and bugs that
grow in such places. Small fish, toads
sind frogs are all eagerly eaten by
geese. 'ou 1 1 try (ientleman.

r"f ns that Get ready while getting ready costs less NOW and HERE !
' Here Are Some Helpful Suggestions
Cool, Natty Suits and Coats at Saving Prices. . .
Don't be caught napping the day before the Fourth. You can't fidget into a good fit or get the right
sort of a suit in too great a rush. Come in to-day or to morrow, the sooner the better, to take advantage of
these special 4th of July extras. We have selected and ready to hand the best coat and suit bargains of
1 91 3 date, and the special prices will leave you more than you expected for Celebration expenses.
Special Values in Gloves for the Fourth
What's the use of waiting until the diy before the Fourth for gloves that you know you can't do with
out ? - We have our Midsummer variety, more complete how than it can be later and we have certain qui!
ities especially adapted for holiday wear and tear and so priced that a special holiday pair is an economy.
All shades, wrist to full arm-lengths.
Dress Cooly for the Fourth Zephyr Light Underwear
The higher nerve tension should be discounted by cooler clothes on the Fourth. Excitement quickens
the circulation. A quicker pulse is a sure sign of fever heat in the blood. The thing to do if you can't'
keep cool is .to keep as cool as you can. Keep down discomfort by beginning the day in a suit of super
light underclothing. Remember that two minutes and a trifling sum will outfit you right so that you can
spend a strenuous Fourth, in peace and comfort.
Dainty Fourth of July Parasols
With a new parssol as a finishing touch your 4th of July costume is complete. Under the peculiarly
new and singularly odd names, parasol fashions seem to fit their tides. You can suit yourself in a hurry
here with sure satisfaction, and a saving price.
