On the same night Mrs. Lassen, living in the same house, saw a man go into the house at 7 3 at night and he did not leave until 5 the next morning.

RAYMOND OSBORN Twenty-five Invited Guests Heard At- tractive Programme—William Bauer Accompanist. | About twenty-five invited guests en- ijoved the delightful private recital en by Mrs. Raymond Osborn of New London in her studio in the Alice building on Friday evening. Mrs. Os- borne has a clear soprano voice which shows much training and she gave a programme of great variety and at- veness. Willlam Bauer, of the piano department of the Connecticut \\\ omen’s college was her accomp- . Her first selection was the Air de Salome (Herodiade) by Massa- sent, which was skillfully interpreted. A charming group of songs were the rietta “Danza, Danza, fanciulla gen- tile” by Ducante, Romance by Debus- Standchen by Richard Strauss, and Meine Lich ist Grun by Brahms. The last two found especial favor with her audience. Her encore was the Cradle Son by Brahms. In the next group were the pretty old English song, Mary of Allendale, Dvorah's Tune Thy Strings, Oh Gypsy and by request his Songs My Mother Taught Me, When Celia_Sings by Frank Moir, by Clay- ton Johns and To a Messenger, by Frank Laorge. Her encore was a fine rendering of Bach’s The Year's at the Spring. Urgent demands for more called forth a piano solo, Hark, Hark, he Lark, by Schubert-Liszt given with pirited expression by Mr. Bauer and another song, Solvjeg Lied by Grieg by Mrs. Osborne. Refreshments were served after the programme and a So- cial hour followed. SECRETARY HILL SPOKE AT SHOP MEETING. Says Rum is Not the Only Great Demon —Impurity Its Twin Brother. On account of the illness of Rev. George H. Strouse, General Secretary Edwin Hill of the Y. M. C. A. spoke at the noon shop meeting in Crescent Arms company Friday. Mr. HIlIl spoke on The Home. He said it is one of the most beautiful words in our language, and ought to be the sweetest spot on earth. It is well we consider what makes the home. It certainly is not the furnishings, how- ever expensive or beautiful they may be. But it is the human hearts that beat as one that make the home. Christ is the real home maker. The wife and mother contribute the most happiness to the average home. We men thoughtlessly neglect to contribute our share. Too many men in the home look out for No. 1. Thereby exhibiting the selfish spirit, and we should avoid selfishness as we do a rattlesnake. There are also other influences at work outside the home which contribute to its downfall, and one of the many rea- sons why all true men should be op- posed to the saloon is because of its havoc wrought in home life. I won- der what the result would be if we could count the tears shed on account of the demon rum? I wonder how many graves are occupled by those who have gone down by the same influence, or have died of broken hearts caused by it? But rum is not the only great evil It has its twin brother, impurity. An authority has sald that while rum has slain its thousands, impurity has slain its ten thousands. We need to heed the note of the gospel, Paul to Tim- othy: Keep thyself clean, be pure not only in action and words but in thought as well. You say that it is nigh impossible to do this. I answer yes, if we try to fight alone, but no matter how sreat the problem of temptation, maybe Jesus Christ is big- ger than any problem, and we can win the victory by linking ourselves wlt‘h his power.
