Graham, rector ©of the church. led the service. The serip- ture lessons were taken from Isalah 29 and St. Luke 14. Prayer was offered by Eldred Brown, rector of Trinity . Mr. Cleveland took as his text Gen. 3:19. In part he said: Work, it is generally agreed. is a is often called a curse. That is just ex- actly the way the first man and woman regarded it.

AT THE DAVIS THEATRE audeville and Pictures on Bill Featured at the Davis theatre for the last half of the week is The Internationa Seven, billed as the world's greatest ac- robatic’ sensation, and without doubt no errorl has been made in classing them as the World's greates:. The team is one that holds the attention of the audience un- til the last fall of the curtain and the feats performed by these fearless acrobats hold the audlence breathless. It is an act that is all that it is represented to be and then some. The princizals in the act represent Six different nationalitizs, The, other - four .acts on ths bill are on a par with the_ headliner only in differ- ent Mmes. The Two Slickers who .open the bill present a comedy rural act at the exvense'of the rural firs department. Al Contad presents a rapid fire talking act that is really good. The other two acts, Grice and Coleman, and Isabelle deAr- mand and company, present varlety scts that must be seen to be appreciated. - The motion picture is *Her , Face Valge ' featuring \Wanda Hawley.

The captest 'n Lo 'I'Hursda'y after- ll‘nnn | street, Tartfor LEFT ROLL OF MONEY AT RELIEF TREASURER'S DOOR Last week Thursday there developed a mystery in Norwich that, after a week of careful investigation and advertising for information, is no nearer a solution than it was when it first developed. The night of March 16th was a dark and ralny one and few people were on the streets, About 8.30 o'clock the maid at the home of Harry M. Land at 3 Rob- bins court heard a knock on the back door. She answered the knock and found a man, with hat'pulled down over his face, uiis coat collar turned up and entirely unknown to her, standing on the step. An object was thrust into her hand with the instructions, “Give this to Mr Land.” The man then turned and. dashed off in the night. The maid reported the strange happening to Mrs. Land who rushed to the front of the house in time to se the man hurrying away down Mrs. Land went back to xamine article en to the maid and found that it was a larg ! which to use a slang expressio s “big to choke a horse.” There was not r bill in the coile or is who yave this money to the maid and for what purpose is it to bo used. Mr. Land is treasurer of the Jewish Relief fund and whether the mon- ey is a contribution for some one who does mot want his name known or whether it is purely » personal matter betdeen the man and Mr. Land is a ques- tion. Mr. Land is at as much of a loss to solve the mygtery as anvone and can not imagifie gnY one of his acquaintanees who would e Mkely to settle a personal debt in that manner. The logical conclu- sion is that it is an ononymeus contrib- ution to the Jewish Relief fund from some ome who does not wish his name to appear and if nothing more is heard from the donor the money will he given to the fund.
