A reasonmable supposition at- ‘among_antiquaries that these furnished the nucleus of the Fellows into one lodge at a date nt|to 1780.

The family of Joseph Angus Walsh from Parrsboro, Nova Bcotla, has moved into one of the mill houses at Packer, Mr, Walsh formerly worked as a painter in Lawton mills, Mye, James Walker and daughter of spent with Mrs, Lillibridge at Packer. Byron Haskell, from the railroad pump, is working as fireman at the electric light plant while the pump is being repaired, Political Small Talk. It is said that the democratic friends of Arthur Elliott in the south part of the town are hustling, realizing that both republican selectmen are almost sure to be elected and one of the dem- ocrats defeated. The contest will be lively, but the republicans have come S0 near being defeated for the last two or three elections that they do not dare waste any votes on the opposite party, no matter how much they may desizé to do so. Mr, Elliott is a very young man for ‘the office, but has friends in the Packer end of the towrn. where he formerly lived, also in Wau- regan and Central Village. . Mr. Cof- fey is also popular, being a native of the south end of the town. The roads are an important question and tne farmers feel that Mr. Coffey will be interested in the country roads as well as those of the village, which are al- ready in good revair. The license question is not being discussed with the usual interest this year. The no-license workers were so disgusted with the court of inquiry farce that they have dropped out of the ranks. Watch Out for Fires! Wood fires the past week have burn- ed over land of the railroad company, the O. A. Hicks estate, Mrs. Gambie and the parsonage property at or near Packer. C, B. Montgomery, fire war- den of the Packer district, promptiy notified the railroad men when he sighted a fire and the loss was kept very low. A fire seldom burns ten minutes in that vicinity without either the wideawake section foreman, J. Sullivan, or Warden Montgomery be- ing on the job. In A. H. Mathewson's district, where the loss from fires was formerly very heavy, the prompt at- tention to every smoke by both war- den and section men has made dam- age suits almost a thing of the past. The serious infury to Elmer Gas- Kil's foot was from a sharp pointed lead pencil instead of from a key as was first supposed until the doctor extracted a plece of lead from the Wwound, which is still very painful, The Plainfleld Woman's _club met with Miss Martha Faton Wednesday afternoon.
