JEWETT CITY A few weeks ago one of the churches gave a harvest supper with the end in ly. It did so, as church suppers never fail to do in Jewett City. It did more than that. The church vestry was crowded, nearly 200 ate, and were filled with the best to be had. The measure of good fellowship which the supper promoted Was not to be reckoned ini dollars. and cents, Everybody saw somebody else, shook hands, enjoyed a little talk on the topics of the times. and all returned to their respective places of abode better and consequent- Iy happier. During the war the com- ittees of the churches ot tosether and by a sort of common consent the 2oad old church supper was given over. | Most of the food is. given by the housewives, and at that time the call from overseas wad imperative.

WHERE EVERY MAID HAS A BEAUTY DOCTOR “There can be no doubt that today this drunken, disease-ridden remnant of the Marquesan race is beyond re- demption; and all the French tolonial administration ean do is to pursue its present policy of nominal supervision and let the natives die off as speedily as possible.” Such is the pathetic epitaph, written by John W. Church, in a communica- tion to the National Geographic So- ciety, of a people whose women were pronounced the most beautiful in the South Seas, -whose dances were the most joyous, whose tattooing was a constantly.

Usually two or three hours were required for the operation. At its conclusion the skin was like veivet in texture, without a trace of oiliness, They treated their hair in a similar manner, and the wonderful. luxuriant tresses ‘were probably due to the at- tention given them in the use of coco oil and massage. “Beyond the preparation of the sin- gle daily meal, her massage, and ‘such tappa or mat making as ' desire or necessity prompted, the life of the Marquesanne was deyoted. entirely to pleasure. The quiet bays and tumbl- ing streams made ideal bathing places, and warrior and maiden aiike were almbst amphiblous. Even the babies were taught to swim before they could walk alone. “Like all Polynesians, they were pdsstonately fond of flowers, and many of their hours were spent in deftly weaving blossoms, leaves, and ferns into wreaths and necklaces to be worn the day by their men and them- re- “Both men and women were elabor- ately tatooed.
