School Scg.
The auditorium was well filled by
parents and friends. Each number
showed that great pains hr.d been
taken in preparation, and rellected
the good work of the teachers in the
behavior of the pupils and the
pleasing manner In which each part
was given.
The number entitled "When 1776
meets 1919" was especially appre
ciated by the audience. 'This pl:y
represented a your.g lady of colonial
times stepping from her oil painting,
and meeting her groat-great-great
grandchild, an up-to-dato ycung lady
of society.
Their efforts at conversation was
very amusing. The society slang of
today being entirety beyond tho com
prehension of the colonial young
lady. Miss Urton, their teacher re
ceived many compliments upon tlie
setting arranged for this number,
also for the costumes designed for
the young ladies.
On Saturday evening a surprise
party was arranged for Mr. and Mrs.

of Directors had taken possession of
the School Building while the teach
er's were enjoying an auto ride.
When they returned they were taken
o the school house, and in the large
room of the Domestic Science De-
oartment an elegant banquet was
awaiting them.
The surprise was complete. The
clams were just ready to serve,
having been prepared by the exper
ienced hand of Director Slocum.
About thirty invited guests were
present. After recovering from the
surprise, the teachers showed their
appreciation, for they had been given
a longer ride than they expected, and
had found a hearty appetite in the
bracing air of the evening.
After the banquet the evening was
spent in conversation and games. All
report a very pleasant evening.
Credit is due to Mesdames Beach,
Slocum, Evans, Hill and Johnson, for
the abundance of good things to eat.

Mr. George Milholland, Special Agent
of the Standard Oil Company yester

lubricant in your car for tlie first
fifteen to thirty mtoutes of operation
for congealed oil does not lubricate.
"With the oil in the crankcase too
thick or sluggish from the cold to
splash properly, what must be the
effect on cylinders and bearings dur
ing the half-hour or so required for
the oil to regain its proper fluidity

serious damage to the motor, to say
nothing of the drain on the batteries

"To avoid this danger and an
