About 0 o'clock the friends began to pour in, and at 7 o'clock all sat down to a sumptuous repast, pre- pared by the hostess. It is needless to say that the table looked tempting, as it was almost groaning beneath its load. The dining -room which was lit up with Chinese lanterns was inviting indeed. Tea over, the room • was soon cleared and made ready for the various games, which all took part in. Beauti- ful chorus singing. solos, mouth organ and instrumental music followed. Af- ter lunch and dessert,all joined in sing- ing "The Maple Leaf Forever," "Auld Lang Syne" and the National Anthem, which brought the'pleasant evening to a close. Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery leave nothing undone in a case like this. The clet•k of the weather: .was inikind to the Ladies' Aid on Mondey evening, the weather being very stormy and cold. Notwithstanding theinclemency of the weather, there was alarge gath- ering assembled at the palatial home of Mr. }L Zimmerman, Inside was comfort and good cheer, and the hearty reception by the host and hostess ban- lehed n all thought of the weather sitz - side.

In some eases the sickness after vac- cinating is worse than the disease of smallpox. It is so in Will. Cole's case of the Oth, who has not recovered yet from having been vaccinated about 4 weeks ago. Some of the folks who have had the smallpox have over -looked the fact that they are quarantined, and are frequently seen in differeut places outside of their homes.

In the last issue of the Advance we read about the "Course of True Love" not running smoothly. We fancy some of our young people will be thinking their trouble has begun for et is quite discouraging to a ybung rnan, when his cutter leaves tho pre- mises very early in the evening and also leaves the young man to use his best judgment whether to ride home on horseback or to chance a ride home and lead his horse. But we read that it would come out all right for the young people yet ; and so it did. Tho cutter was found nob yery far on the road towards home. Salem.
