In Independence the old year waa bidden a reverential fare well with one hand, and a hearty welcome extended to the New Year with the othe Thnre were numerous watch I parties where social clubs culmi- nated their year's pleasure on the '.last evening of the old year lishta were subdued and hands were clasped while the gather : inss sang "Auld Lanpr Syne." ; Perhaps the largest club evnt ! on that evening was enjoyed at ! the J. E. Hubbard home when Mr. jand Mrs. J. E. Hubbard veryde ! lightfully entertained the mem , bers of their Whist Club. Religious organizations gath ered at the Methodist church, where an interesting program, a social hour, and refreshment passed away the last hours of 1914, and 1915 was most heart!'.' welcomed. I A glance at the calendars indi cates a vacation season that has been observed with Btrict fidelity by the schools and other organi zations. The holidays over, a long breath drawn and affairs will soon resume their normal condi tions as the workers alontr these lines prepare to battle with the problems that will confront then, for solution in the New Year. i Numerous solitaires have re cently been noticed on the indi cative finger of several fair belles ot,h Snnietv is verv mucri on the Sfcjw-- - r qui vive for definite announce ; ments of several engagements. Resolute bachelors have doubt- 1 less become more relentin? and : the fate of Hon.

FIRST C. I. C. MEETING i Thp first session of the Civic League for 1915 will be held al the home of its president, Mrs. J. S. Cooper, next Tuesday after noon when there will be a routine of interesting conditions to de cide upon. The active workers in thiscluh 'can look back with just pride at , the splendid growth they have manifested and the splendi ! work they have achieved in th" twelve months that have taken their place in history, for the have many accomplishments of profit to their credit and much bigfer things to look forward t" in 1915. MRS. CLAGCEir 73 ' New-Year's day being the Tilt' birthday of Mrs. I. Clagjrett, the day was fittingly ushered in at the Claggett home, ciimmerror-it-ing two pleasant events. Many friends called during the afternoon to wish the familv a "Happy New Year" and at th" same time to wish Mrs. Claggett "Many happy returns of the day of her birth." Callers were delighted to find thattho' she is advancing in years, it is with a grace and beauty that reflect a personality that is distinctly worth while. Even tho' her little body is frail, one loves the kindly smile that radiates frem her face and the genuine hand-clasp that bespeak strength of character and intense Interest in her friends who are legion. During the afternoon Mrs. Young served delicious cakes and steaming beverages to the call ers.

The several tables were cir cled with intensely interested players and their favorite game indulged in until the waning year claimed attention, and the New Year was merrily ushered in, the gathering assuming the. nature of a "watch party." Mrs. Hubbard delighted rrr guests with a splendid luncheon and they were yet reluctant to depart even tbo' resolutions for 1015 had been completed. IT I? i.

YOUHG FOLKS' CCSSES King Frost at Work. Wbeu you get up on u cold winter's morulng haven't you noticed the won derful pictures King Trust has put on your windows while you have been asleep? If you look nt these pictures closely you will see that they are made up of long, feathery frost ferns. Now, theso ferns consist of thousand of little crystals of frost, so Ninall that It takes 10.0(H) of them to cover a pen ny, and In the process of free.lai; thcy uaVe drawn together so as to form n pattern. The bent of your room nnd the cold ness of the outside air have caused a mh-t to gather on the window pane, nnd tf you examine this mist under n microscope you will flint that It Is nothing more than tiny drops of water. Presently as the cold becomes nioio Intense each of these drops freer cs In ; n little crystal, which is called nn "ice Hoover," nnd each crystal usually has sis points. There are more tlinn 2,!Xi kinds of crystals, and they nil go to ward tho making of King Frost's pic ture. If the frost very keen then the pattern of tils picture will be n coarse one. If there Is little frost It 111 be n flue one. But King Jack Frost la a wonderful artist, for be never makes two pictures nllke, though be produces millions every winter. The Meaning of Calumet. You will often run ncross tho word cnliunet In connection with Indian titles of war, nnd unless you are fr millar with its meaning you are up' to be pur.zled by It. Calumet la the name of the pent pipe used by the North American In din us. It consisted of a tobacco pipe having a large bowl, generally of po' ished red marble or sandstone, nnd e stem of reed or painted wood decornl ed with feathers and about two nnd one-half feet long. After a mici treaty hud been signed the Indian used to fill tho pipe with the best to hncoo nnd present It to the represent atives of the party with which the;. had made pence, themselves suiokln It afterward. The Indians lo pre sented the calumet to any visitor, uu to refuse it was to declare wnr wit! those who proffered It The wor ' calumet ts not in Itself Indian; It la a Norman word meaning ahepberd - plpp and wua given by the enrly French settlers to the Indian pipe of peace be en use of Its general resemblance to tli Inst r u men t of the field. Persistent Questions. Seat all the players save three In a row. The first of these three goes to each player and whispers In his eat some sentence descriptive of where hi la supposed to be, the second player follows v!lh a sentence tellii;:' !i:i: he Is supposed to be dolim. and tin third tells lilm whom be Is supposed to lie with The first of the tluee then alls the nami' of seme player, and that player must give In one long sen tence the three given lilm If he lauirhs lie pays n forfeit As the three lenders are each Ignorant of what the ,.tirr fdvew the results are apt to be ludicrous. One player saying. "I am In tier mid die of the Atlantic ocenn popping corn with Mary Smith," while another de clares, "I am In nn nlrshlp darning stockings for Joe Itrown." is apt to provoke a gale of merriment Conundruma. , Why should tho number 2SS never lie named before Indies? Because it Is bo 2i gross, When Is a win low like a star? When it is a sk.vlli.-M. Why is an absconding bunk cashier like mi air gun? Itecntise be goes off loaded and iiia'ies uu report. Why is a widicver like a bouse In u state of dihipid; tlen? Ilec.iuse he wants repairing What Is that which yon cannot hold ten minutes, although It la na light as a feather? Your breath.
