ST. PATRICK EXERGISES IN WESTERLY Large Audience in Hibernian Hall Hears Interesting Program —Plaintiff Testifies in Suit of Symes vs. McNeill— Funeral of Mrs. Hannah J. Stott—New Trial Asked For in Thomas-Burdick Case. The wearing of the green in West- | has ey on St. Patrick’s Day was not con- fined to the residents of Irish birth of descent, but was almost universal, as nearly every man, woman and child, and even some animals, were deco- rated with reminders of “the day we celebrate.” Althougsh much of the natural green was covered with a mantle of snow, the green predomi- nated. There was no parade or public demonstration in Westerly, but during the day there were several St. Patrick tegs, and in the eveningz a formal or- der of exercises was observed in Hi- be¥nian hall, before a large audience. John J. Fitzgerald, pastor of hael's church, Pawcatuck, pre- been received at the Westerly Public Library. The author was born in Westerly, Nov. 23, 1886, the son of A. Herbert and Augusta Johnson Lew- is. He received degrees at Alfred, Sy- racuse, Chicago, Milton. He taught school in Plainfield, N. J., studied in Italian libraries, was professor of La- tin and rhetoric in Alfred, and in Eng- lish at Chicago. Among his literary works are: A First Book in Writing English, A First Manual of Composi- tion, An Introduction to the Study of Literature, A Second Manuel of Com- position, Speciment of the Forms of Discourse, Applied English Grammar, Almost Fairy Children and Business English. sided, and there were admirable ad- dresses by Rev.

Labor is securing more liberal pay. These two influ- ences have affected prices of all carpets. Manufactur- ers have notified the trade of a material and justifiable advance. The carpet market is a cheerful phase of brightening industrial and economical conditions. Higher prices are the forerunners of prosperity. The change caught us with an immense and well bought stock and our position is such that WE WILL ALLOW NO HOUSE TO UNDERSELL US or give more liberal terms. Beginning Saturday, March 4, and continuing for one week only, we will make Special Prices on All Rugs, Carpets, Mattings, Oil Cloths and Linoleums Don’t hold the thought that these offerings will con- tinue. You'll be disappointed. When our present stock is sold we see no possibility of similar qualities at the prices that control now.

Work on the addition to Willow Point casino, which has been under way for several weeks, has been com- pleted and the newly enlarged dance hall was cpened St. Patrick’s night for the first time. The actual amount of dance floor space now is over 6,000 6,000 square feet. Two buildings, both which have been used for dancing, have been turned into one. The or- chestra led by William Noyes, violin, Miss Inez Butten, piano, Philip But- ton, cornet, George Trombone, and Edward Pinkman, drums, furnish- ed good music for_the entire evening. Many came from New London, West- erly, Stonington, Groton and Noank. The entire floor space has been planed. The new section, the building north of the one that has been used all win- ter, has been decorated in conformity with the cther. The windows at the east end of the hall have been en- larged and the lounging rooms at the end of the building have also been made larger and more attractive by the installation of new furniture. In the north building it was necessary to raise the old floor about two feet to conform with the other hall and an entirely new hard wood floor was laid. The ceiling has been removed, thus leaving a clear space to the rafters and roof. There is a refreshment counter in each department. The en- trance, however, will be through the south portions as formerly and the cloak room, ladies’ retiring room and men’s smoking room will be conduct- ed_as formerly in the south part. Mr. Maxson has spared no pains in making the casino attractive Cases of Ptomaine Poisoning.
