Miss Pantile Harley will lecture ou "Old Mexico" in the Congrega tional church this evening. It doesn't seem just right to hurl old shoes nnd things ut a newlywedded couple and let those who come out of the divorce court escape. Earl Crouchley nnd Lena Adams wore united in marriage at tho bride's homo in Portlnnd last "Saturday evening, only tho immediate friends of the young couple being present. Both were former residents of St. Johns, where they have many friends, who wish them nil the happiness life nlTords. They hnvo taken up thoir residence on Tenth street, near Mills, Portlnnd. James Dickson and William Wilson on Monday viuited tho north end school, presided over by Miss Stevens, to learn how tho St. Johns schools compared with those of tho East, and they were most ngreeably surprised to find that the progress, method of instruction nnd advancement mnde by tho pupils woro su perior to that obtajning in some of tho Eastern Htates. They were particularly impressed with pa tience nnd lminslnking efforts on the part of tho instructress. Mr. Dickson was for a number of years a school director in a Pennsylvania town. A novel contest is on between tho two companies of the W. II. M. S. of tho M. E. church. Tho contest, "A mile of pennies," was suggested by Mrs. Donald Patton, and after 11 vote wus taken it was decided that tho society take up the plan. Cap tains were appointed by the president, Mrs. Olson. Captain of No. No. 1 being Mrs. Donald Patton nnd of Co. No. 2, Mrs. II. O. Brown. Tho contest is on until tho first of April, when the losing side gives the winners it banquet. Watch for thoir badges and if you have any pennies to spare, just remcmbor tho Captains, Ono of tho con testants. No definite further action has yet been taken on tho public park proposition, but the latest move being advocated is to call a special election, the ballot to con tain a list of prolfered tracts, classified under the headings of "Park Sites" and "Plazas' tho voter being given tho privilege of voting for one of each only. The ballot also to authorize a bond issue in sum great enough to cover tho cost of tho highest priced park site and also the highest priced plnzn, to bo re duced if cheaper priced property bo selected by tho voters. Pro vision will nlso undoubtedly bo mado for money sufficient to place tho two tracts in proper con dition to serve tho purposes for which they aro to bo secured. Evangelical Church. Our Ral ly Day services lastSunday were a success. Much interest was manifest and tho congregation responded heartily to the call for funds with which to lift the church indebtedness and for ward our future interests by con tributing four hundred and fifty dollars in a few minutes. They were delighted in sharing in this part of tho service. The church in earnest in a commu nity is a stimulus to all the in terests of society. Next Sunday is Mothers' Day in our Sunday school and church services. A program is prepar ed and wo aro expecting a good day. Arrangements have been mado for assistance from outside Sunday school workers. Tho morning sermon will be in lino, the theme, "Personal Responsi bility," drawn from tho story of Queen Esther.
