ST. ANDREWS PHE-LENTEN
1>ARTY I AST EVENING
Last evening the members of St. Andrew's Society, topether with a few friends, met in St. James Episcopal Parish House for a little pre-Lenten social time.
At the openinK of the program Prof. Fred RinRrose, former head of the music department of the Indiana. Pa., Hiuh School, who is now up at the Teacher.s Colloge, talcinK his degree, took his place at the piano, and a num- her of old songs, such as "America," "Battle H.vmn of the RcpuMic," "Old Black Joe." 'Tiperary," etc. were sung Viy the crowd. Those who couldn't sing Vept time with their feet.
After the boys had rendered in highly professional manner thing they could think of. Prof. Henry Obelkevich was called upon and with the assstanceof J. P. Whitmer, of the collejre. exhibited his skill in telepathy —which created a lot of merriment.
Prof. Ringrosc then gave some imi¬ tations of a country brass band that Viadn't learned to play but one piece, and when they were called on to play moTe than once at an entertainment or other occasion, they had practiced up so they could play the same piece in different ways; oven to make it sound like a dirge, which thev played at soldiers' funerals. Mr. Ringrose imitated on the piano all these differ¬ ent -ways of playing the piece.
The next on the program was a short address by Mr. Stephen A. K. Parker, of Elmira, who spoke in the line of what might be termed the "good of the order." He gave them a lot of good things to think about.
At the close of the program card ¦tables wei-e brought out, and all join-
MANSFIELI) LODGE I. O. O. F. CELEBRATF^S 10th ANNIVERSARY
Mansfield Lodge, No. 526, I. O. O. F., certainly .surpa.ssed all other years in its annual reception and banquet, it being the fortieth anniversary of its organization, which was held in their rooms in the Bank block, last Thur.t!- day evening. On account of so much sickness in this locality, the atten¬ dance was not aa large as was ex¬ pected, but the splendid program and the delicious viands which made up the banquet, helped to lessen the disap¬ pointment at not having a larger turn-out. There were probably about a hundred present, and they all seem¬ ed to enjoy both the banquet and the program. Caterer A. H. Vosburg and a score of assistants served the eat¬ ables in a delightful maner, with no long waits, as is sometimes the case in serving such extensive menus.
Prior to the banquet Professor John Myers' orchestra played three selec¬ tions: "The University of Pennsyl¬ vania Band March," "The Glow Worm, and "Funeral March of a Mar¬ ionette."
After supper the following pro¬ gram was rendered:
Trombone Solo: "The Old Home Down  on  the  Farm"—Charles Dawe.
Vocal Selections: "The Bells of Saint Mary's" and "A Ru.ssian Lulla¬ by"—W. W. Shaw. Mrs. Shaw accom¬ panist.
Readings: "Is There Anything Wrong With That?", "I Fall Down an' Go Boom"—Miss Mamie Thomas. Glenn Hammer, pianist accompanist.

Bennet i.i well known in Mansfield, where he has spoken before the local Masons, and is well liked whereever he appears. He is a man eminently fitted for the po- | sition of Bishop, being a man of con¬ siderable force and ability, and a true Christian gentleman. Further, he un¬ derstands the rural communities through having lived his early life in Troy,    and    this fact makes him the

A letter from Commissioner Ralph Baity, who, with Mrs. Baity, Samuel Hayes,  of  Middlebury,    and     Arthur Hayes,   of   Corning,   who   arrived   in Eustis,    Florida,    February   4,   states that about seven o'clock Saturday eve¬ ning,  February  2,  when  about  three mfles   out   of     Bruns>«>ck.    GeoT|f\«, \ where the road crosses \i big swnmp I and is graded u high, they had a head- ' ' on collision  wdth another car, swing- I ing their car around  to  the left and ' down a ten-foot embankment, striking ' on the front    of    the    car.    Samuel Hayes and  Mr. Baity were riding in I the  front  seat.    Arthur  Hayes    was I thrown  over  the  seat,  striking    Mr. i Baity in the back, but as  Mr.  Baity j was    braced    against    the    steering , wheel, neither he or Ilr.  Hayes were hurt.    Samuel  Ha.ves' head was jam¬ med into the corner of the car, break¬ ing his glasses and blackening one eye. Mrs.  Baity  received  a  bad  bump  on her head, .which was at first thought to be serious.   A passing car took Mr. and  Mrs.  Baity    to    the  hospital  at ' Brunswick,    where her injuries  were ' dressed   and  were   found   only   minor I ones.    A friend hearing of their ac- | cident.  took  thorn  to his home.    The driver of the other car admitted that he crowded Mr. Baity off the road and that the accident was his fault.
A girl, a promise, ten thousand dol¬ lars, a bet, and what else? A man promises to double the ten thousand for a young woman. To do this as quickly as is necessai-y he makes a wager that he can tell the truth for twenty-four hours. It happens that he works for a stock broker.
This rollicking three-act comedy is presented by the Senior High School faculty, and a few students. The way they act is very clever, to say the least. From the time the curtain op- j ens and until it closes, every charac- I ter is filled with life and action, mak- ' ing the play move smoothly and quickly. There will be no dull mo¬ ments throughout the evening, not I even between the acts, because the HigJi School twenty-piece orchestra wilT be there with some rteWg^ttul music.
The facult.v play is always one of the sensations of the school term and this is not to be an exception. Every¬ one can enjoy it without a doubt. ' "Nothing But the Truth," featuring Warren L.

Dear God, to thy portals grand. To Thy home over yonder,
One has gone from her home band
To Thy changeless home of wonder.
Her life has been  a long one, Filled with gaines and losses.
Like Christ, who died on Calvary, She, too, has borne her crosses.
And now, her life is over,
She has laid her burdens down. To wake on Resurrection Morn,
For her awaits a crown. We know her chair is empty
By our fireside now. And  we  shall  miss  those dear white locks
Pushed gently from her brow.
But ere she departed, she said,
"Do not mourn for me, there's no need. "And  when  you  are  lonesome,
"There is my Bible, read!" These were almost her parting words. Then her soul  left  on  spirit wing. "O grave, where is thy victory," "O death, where is thy sting."
