LITERARY SOCIETY.- The most
snccessf-ul event iim thehistory, of the
Bluevale Literary Society, and one of
t most remeu•keble entertainments
in the annals of this neighborhood
was the program contest between the
nuuried and single members on
March 25th, ' which brought the
activities of the society. to a close fin
the present season. - When the
audience reluctantly dispersed soule-
titne
after mid
ni ht any lingering
g
doubts that might, have been held as
'to the value of Literary Ye Societ in
the community were . dispelled for-
ever. Under such conditions of
threatening weather and bad roads
the size of the audience which packed
the Poi ester's Hall was in- itself re-
markable. Mayot• Irwin, of Wing.
hath, was unable to fill his engage-
ment to net as judge. This was a mis-
fortune to lhtyot Irwin as well 'as to
the Literary Society. - As it seemed'
hopeless to loolt foe an'iutptutial'
judge among these present owing to
the tact. that practically everyone was
either harried or single, Lite
audience themselves were left to' de-
cide of the merits of the contestants.
