Splendid Attendance And Good Fellowship As Well As The Chumming Companionship Was Greatlg Enjoyed. ARMISTICE DAY PARADE A SUCCESS Nut even tho bud weather could keep members and friends away from th > fast beconiin^^ popular Father and !?on liani|uet. Though the winds blew ii mighty gale and the rain desc-ended in veritable torrents yet the magnitude which the oeia.-iun pos'^es:5ed was strong enough to give the necessary impetus to those interested in the church and the cause of the Christian fellowship fo brave tbe incleniciuy uf the |)revailing weather. Jiipiirr l'lu\iiis could nut drown the ambition of 20 falliers and sons who atUiuh-d the baiKpiel. Had the weather been favurahle a conserva¬ tive estimate would have bei'ii four times na many. At 7.45 the banqueters sat down to a sumptuous repast. Several ladies had kindly consented to prepare food which was nicnued by the men, and they cer¬ tainly gave an excellent demonstration of real domestic science., .-\niid good fellowship, intermingled by popular folk songs, were several very interesting nnd entertaining speeches by Mr. Frank Heckman and .Mr, Warren .Siegffied. A somewhat "drenched'' or¬ chestra nevertheless gave some enliven¬ ing music and after an offering was ]' taken, wliieli covered all expenses, the \ Uinppy occasion came to cundusiun by i singing ".My Country 'Tis uf Tliee." 1 j Everybody voted an enjoynble evening 'as well as a beneficial gathering to th" I Father and Son baiii|uet and we know itliat its blessing shall not return void and empty. A long acknowledged fact is the es- traiiL'cment between father and son, and many ways have been tried lo close the 'chasm, but none lias been as effectual fas the Father -and Son banquet. It j brings them together for at least one ] I evening, when the father can enjoy the 'son's presence nnd where the >on can I enjoy the father's giiiuine conipanion- ; ship. If the greatness of any nation' ¦is to be estimated by nuTe wealth ill 'would be n sad day for hiinianity bin; the greatness uf any nation is the youth of the land. Where ran we best look for a splendid youth if it is not in tho cheery home with father, mother, and sister, as companions instead of the street corner friendship and companion¬ ship. Help your son climb higher on tie ; ladder of life for the nation nnd the I kingdom which is not made by human 1 hands ..ross HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. Students Enjoy Musical Hour. Prof. Harry Zehner, assistant musical director of the Faston schools, recently visited the Nazareth schools. After vis¬ iting the grades.

Dr. Stone has made a special study of the needs and proper care of the feet, and pointed out the defects of foot trouble. Although it was a rather dry and bony subject it was very inter¬ esting and instructive. Campaign for Sale of Season Tickets.

Many members of the alumni and friends have taken advantage of the op¬ portunity to buy tickets at the reason¬ able price set. The prospects for tbe season are very encouraging. Literary ProgTsiB.

On 1 uesiiay, November 30th, the .\l. C. JJrunuilic Associaliun will present "Oll'icer titjti," a melodramatic farce, at the .Naisurclli ilall chapel.
During the Iwu year run uf this play un iiruudway the critics were luuu in their praises ol this pruduclion, amuiig which ^^e quule the iuiluttiiig:
"llie bcol iwu Uuur evening uu Broad¬ way.'
" ¦Ullice litili' has yet/' to be uciuuUed fur Wll and tlinllo.'

"Officer 666" ia a sincere specimen of dramatic craftsmanship, and it is a play uf this rare, ur at least free common¬ place nature that the people of Nazareth will most enjoy. The expense involved in producing "Oiricer 666" is, naturally, heavier than for a play uf a lesser order, but we are eonlldent that every availa¬ ble seat will be lilled, and a second ap¬ pearance of the .\ssociatiun demanded.
