The fact that District Superinten- dent Newland this season closes his presidency of the camp meeting asso ciation s a matter of regret to many.

North Coventry, Aug. 26.—The sec- ond day of the Old Home week cele- bration of the town of Coventry dawn- ed bright and clear. In South Coyen- try the last finishing touches were ef- town, the private residences and the beautiful streets appeared still more inviting when the final decorations were completed. At North Coventry everyone Was working to have everything in readi ness for the presentation of the canta- ta The Haymakers in the Second Con- gregational church in the evening. Charles W. Lee, the manager and di- rector, with able assistants, finished the elaborate decorations in the church. Many Home-Comers. Bvery train and trolley brought a rivals for the remainder of the week's festivities. The homes of the town house guests from many cities and towns in all parts of the country. During the day many a little family reunion was held and on every side ono could note the cordial handclasp and pleasant words of greeting extend- ed and exchanged. A Crowded Church. Tn the early evening conveyances of all sorts were headed in the direction of North Coventry—vehicles drawn by horses, all kinds of automobiles, mo- torcycles, bicycles and 'buses carrying people to the Second Congregational church, situated on the sightly Maln street. When the hour for the open- ing number of the cantata—8 o'clock —arrived not a seat was avaflable, and | there was scarcely any room left for people to stand. It was without ques- tion the largest crowd that has occu- pled the church since its erection. Pleasing Cantata. The setting for The Haymakers was very realistic and depicted a typical | farmhouse, with all the minute detail | acteristic of the haying season. | ie Haymakers is a beautiful operatic | cantata by George F. Root and was | given by local singers under the effi- | clent direction and managership of Charles W. Lee of North Coventry. Mrs. Newell A. Hill presided at the | plano and gave an excellent rendition of the instrumental portion of the can- tata. The Programme. of the parts were finely taken ¢ the different soloists and members of the well balanced chorus.

December 16, 1773 A little affair occurred in New England that went down in history as The Boston Tea Party “There’s a Reason” An English King had told his subject colonists that if they drank tea they must pay a tax on it—an unjust tax that made rev- enue, not for Americans but for Englishmen. It was a tax that increased the high cost of living of those days—and our forefathers went to the wharf where the tea ships were moored, split open the tea chests and spilled their contents into Boston Harbor, thus producing the largest and most expensive bowl of tea the world has ever seen. Today Is repeated practically the same thing. The Brazilian Coffee Trust, operated by foreign money kings, working outside the control of out national Anti-trust laws, have im- posed a tax upon American citizens which has raised the price of even the cheapest grade of coffee from 15c to 25¢ per Ib. During three past years this trust has taken Hundreds of Millions of Dollars from the nockets of American Citizens. given Brazil 85 Millions of Dollars with which to retire her National Bonds, as given Brazil 10 Millions of Dollars to pay interest on her bonds. 14 It I of Dol 1as given Brazil a “bought and paid for” supply of coffee on hand worth 90 Millions lars and— It has paid millions upon millions of profit into the coffers of the Foreign Money Kings; and yet the coffee people report a falling off in sales of about 200 million pounds in the pi\il two years. Why this Heavy Reduction? Until recently the ever increasing army of Postum users, thought only of hml!hfla\ a “reason” for quitting coffee. Now Economy is another “reason.” A third “reason,” Im. proved Flavor, has come in with Instant Postum prepared instantly by placing a spoonful in a cup and pouring hot water over it. This presents a delicious beverage much resembling high grade Java in color and taste, but absolutely pure and free from the coffee drug “caffeine” or any other harmful ingredient. Health, convenience, flavor and economy have induced people to change from coftee to Postum, then fol- lows better health, freedom from headache, indigestion, nervousness and other coffee ills, The Result— In hundreds of thousands of American homes today, coffee is forgotten and Postum has become the reg- ular table beverage. It is an American drink made by Americans from American products. A 100-cup tin Instant Postum, 50c, (equals 1-2c per cup), at Grocers.
