C. Allen addressed the meeting and reported that the blight inspec tion force had been particularly effi cient this year, and that the same policy would continue for the coming year. It was stated that now is the time for all orchardists to begin root Inspection for blight, and that failure to do so would cause rigid invocation of the law. Mr. Allen stated that during the year the power of the, Inspectors granted by state law had been used, and that in several cases it was nec essary to use force to remove the blight. Over $1,000 in liens have been filed against land for inspection work to date. The meeting was enthusiastic from start to finish. , Died. Little Emerson Smith known to many as "Petie" and loved by all who knew him died Tuesday evening at 5 o'clock, aged four years. He had tonsllitis, followed by erysipelas and pneumonia. He was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Smith and a particularly bright and attractive child. The parents certainly have the community's sympathy, especially so as Mrs. Smith herself Is ill and Mr. Smith has just begun to recover from a very severe illness and surgical op eration.

The nine scenes of the play will be artistic reproductions of the des ert or scenes near the desert, and will provide a wonderful series of settings for the enacting of the fer- vid, romantic character demanded by the plot of Mr. Hlchens' famous novel. The story Is of a young Trapplst monk's flight from a monastery in which he haB spent nineteen years. He meets a pretty English woman with whom he falls passionately in love. She returns his intense affec tion, and, against the warnings of friends, she marries the mysterious youth, and they depart to spend their honeymoon in the desert. Constantly haunted by his broken vows, the young monk is led one night to confess his true character to a friend of his bride, who, in turn, bids the monk confess to her. .. The young wife, being a devoutly relig ioous woman, bids him return to his monastery, but does not tell him she is soon to become a mother as she says farewell forever to him. Miss Sarah Truax will be seen In the part of the wife, "Domini Enfll den;" William Jeffrey as "Boris An- drovsky," the Trapplst monk; How ard Gould as "Count Anteonl" and Albert Andruss as the kindly "Father Roubier." Others In the large company will include Miss Pearl Gray as "Su zanne," James Mason as "Captain De Trevlgnac" and Leo de Valery as "Batouch," together with over one hundred people which are required for the presentation of this spectacu lar production, and It will be exactly as presented at the Century Theatre, New York, for a run of one year.
