every Sunday so that mem-
4) bers unable . to attend the
meetings and those Interested

work that Is being done by
this organization. Mrs. Wm.

dent.
On Monday evening, October
28th about fifty members of the
American Legion Auxiliary met
for a social and business meeting.
The program was in charge of
Mrs. . Kd ward Leach. Tlie usual
order of business was revised and
ihe entertainment was put at the
beginning of the evening. The
members were invited to take
themselves In fancy to Serbia nnd
spend about an Hour and a half
In entertainment, sightseeing and
sillily of tills intensely Interesting
little country. Dancers from the
Eve Benson dancing school In gay
costumes and holiday mood,
brought the carnival spirit to the
trip. : ; As nn encore they brought
our thought hack to( Broadway
tiul old New York for a few no
irnm with a tap dance to the
Sidewalks of New York." The
dances were beautifully executed
and the moral of the "globetrot
ters': raised to grade "A". ' So we
gathered about Mrs. Leach, our
guide, and learned much of this
tiny country that is not ns large as
Maine and whose population does
not equal that of New York City.
We went to Belgrade, the capitul
city, and saw where the last con
ference of that great peace move
ment, f'idac, was held. Enchanted
by the beautiful buildings and well
laid out city, we were glad to learn
of this energetic - and educated
people. So much has been done
In so little time as it has been only
a short time, historically speaking,
that Serbia has had her freedom.
v- In the country the patriarch sys
tem still prevails, and many fam
ilies combine their resources and
band together under the leadership
of an elder. The whole commu
nity then stands good for the loss
of any one man so that It is always
easy to borrow money. This, and
ii law which provided for only a
.certain portion, of a man's pro
perty being disposed of in one day
bus done much to prevent poverty
In this country.
jbJ When a stranger comes to Bel
trade, he may see tall buildings,
ride upon tram curs, go to the
opera, the theater, or consult the
chamber of commerce about his
own country or ubout another if
he be interested. He may consult
the trades union on .labor prob
lems, and If Just bent on enjoying
cafes, restaurunts, etc., of a mod
ern city are at his disposul.
Before , the formal opening, of
the meeting Mrs. Hull, the ..presi
dent, called upon Mrs. D. G. Will
son to explain the meaning of the
salute to the flag. She urged all
to familiarize themselves with the
pledge of allegiance and help oth
ers to show respect whenever It
passes. She laid the fact to ignor
ance that many women do not put
the hand over the heart at pa
rades, etc. As a part of our Amer
icanization work we should try and
teach them by act as well as
words.
The new committee heads 'ex
plained the work to be accomr
pllshed during the year so that
aomprehensive aid might be given
them.'

Tlirllls Young
Merry-Ma leers
A party held by the Luctare
club Wednesday night, October
30th, was a big success.
Careful plans were mude by the
entertainment committee to give
a big Hallowe'en thrill. These
plans caused the party to drive
to a deserted house in the coun
try near Ashland. The house was
prepared in advance with lighted
pumpkins, etc., to add to the
Hallowe'en setting. It was plan
ned that the supposed owner of
the deserted house would appear
on the scene and order the party
to vacate the premises: during the
controversy that would naturally
ensue, some guns were to be fired
with blanks.- The Ashland police
were then scheduled to arrive on
the scene and arrest those pres
ents and search everyone " for
liquor, etc. It was further plan
ned that one of the party would
be caught, with what would appear
. iw ""c ins icijuiiru ciiuviite n
flask bf cold tea); upon finding
this evidence, the police were to
order everyone to he escorted to
the police station.
But like many too carefully laid
plans, the unexpected - happened.
When the supposed owner of the
deserted house and the Ashland
police arrived on the scene, they
were too late. Everyone had left
the house ond were on their way
back to the Parish half at Mod
ford to continue their party with
dancing, refreshments, etc." With
out any thrill.
The Ashland policemen were
thariked and dismissed by one of
the entertainment committee, af
ter which a hurried conference
was held with the party who was
acting as the owner of the house.
It waa decided that he should fol
low the party to Medford, and
during the midst of the fun walk
in on them in his dilapidated at
tire, which consisted of lace gum
boots about three or four sizes
too la rge for him, ragged khaki
pants which were also several
sizes too large, a ragged, dirty
old corduroy hunting coat but
toned up the front with nails, a
greasy cap, with his hair arrang
ed to appear uncut for several
months, and lastly, a revolver
stuck In his belt. In this. uncouth
attire, he walked into the midst
of the merrymakers demanding
damages for the several things he
charged had been broken and de
stroyed vhlle they were trespass
ing in his house.
Of course, the bolder members
of the party argued the point with
him, while others of the party
looked on in varying degrees of
disgust and fright. It appeared
for a moment or two as thoug:i
oiie of the huskier members might
lay hands on th Intruder and

Fortunately at this time . Father

guilty for the party and asked
the self-styled owner to name his
damages, which climaxed the
farce. The intruder-glanced nt
the serving table "'lortcled dowti
with good things to eat, and de
clared that he woul stndy for
lunch which would settle his
claims In full. It then slowly
dawned on those present that a
trick had been successful! play
ed on them, and it was afterward
explained that they had escaped
one trick by leaving the vacant
house too soon only to fall into
another.

ship of General Lane. Historians
many times differ as to the exnet
time and place of events, but there
Is no difference expressed in tell

triotic fervor of these early pio
neers. The speaker then told of
the high regard, respect ond con
fidence the Indians had for Gen
