Paradis of Volun- | town will sing the masses today. i The cribbage tdurnament that is being | conducted by the Pinochle club has only ! one more night to run. Jack Lafleur and Jack Murphy are the probable win- ners of the tournament, as they lead by 200 points. The tournament was sched- uled for a longer period, but the interest had died out 8o the officials decided to close it. The Pinochle club held a special meet- ing Sunday in their rooms on Front street at which it was decided to hold a lance on this coming Friday. A commit- tee of 25 were appointed to attend to the urangements of the dance, with Herman Fontaine as chairman. It is planned to use some artistic decorations. Ulric Pepin, Fred White, James Emer- son, James White and Alphonse White motored to Worcester Sunday in the latter's machine to view tie ruins of the recent fire. There were numerous other parties who motored to Worcester also to view the ruins. Denny Murphy, Harry Mills and Jo. seph Belair will appear on a Boston vasketball team.lineup Wednesday night in Boston against a team representing Bunker Hill ‘The boxing enthusiasts of the vil'age are to have another chané® to see two local mitt agtists in action in the near future it is reported, 1t is anncunced by ! the manager, of the two boys that plans | are under way to bring together the won- der of the Fancy Corner, Peasoup Beau- regard, and the pride of the Army-Navy Club, Red Burel.

Peasoup is training hard for the bout, as he is a little over- welght by several pounds, and i3 coné fident that he will be able to taKe off several pounds of the extra fiesh and be fit for the bout, waich will be over the six round route, RORWICH TOWN Practical Repentance was the theme of Rev. Gurdor F. Bailey’s interesting ser- mon_ af the First Congregational church Sunday morning. The text, Luke 19: 8, And Zaccheus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusa- tions, I restore him fourfold. On the pul- pit was an immense bouquet of variegat- «d carnations, the gift of the Bible class in memory of two beloved people, Rev. and Mrs. John O. Barrows, former teach- «rs of this class and most helpful in church work. Rev. Mr. Bailey paid trib- ute to Rev. Mr. Barrows' work in foreign fields, as well as his work in the home- land, saying that the flowers were to donor servants of other days in their timo of good work, who had laid down their lives when God called them to their heavenly reward. Preceding the sermon, announcement ‘was made in regard to today (Monday) being designated as Self Denial day, for the relief of the-suffering Armenians. In this self denial for the relief of others ! there will be some value realized, ~value to be judged by each of us in the results. Special reference was made to the proclamation by Mayor Lerou in his strong appeal to the citizens of this com- munity to contribute generously to this good cause. It was suggested that con- tributions be left on Tuesday with Miss Florence M. Bennett, principal of West Town street school, William G. Tarbox, principal of Town street school, and at the store of Thomas Smith. At the Christian Endeavor meeting Bunday evening an unusually interesting missionary program was given by the young people. The topic, Missionary Re- sults in Asia. Isalah 52: 7-15. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Winchester (Eliz- abeth Heidel) were pleasantly surprised Friday evening at their home in Lisbon when Miss Jessie E. Hyde and four men of her Sunday school class called for a eocial hour. This class, including the host, are also members of the W. I. T.s, an organized club. In behalf of the club Mr. and Mrs. Winchester were présented a paiating in a gilt frame in recognition of their recent matriage. During the evening refreshments were served, and music and games made the affair most enjoyable for those attending, who were ‘Theodore Sterry, Raymond Smith, Elmer Yrowning and George Durr, with their leacher. i Relatives of Mrs. Bagley Mrs. Willlam F.
