A grand time is anticipated. Rev. Smith, of Medford, will speak at the M. E. Church, next Sunday, at 10:30 A.M. Jessie Britton, who is teaching west of here, spent Sunday with her parents at this place. The I. O. of G. T.’s aid society held at F. H. Darling’s on Saturday evening, was a social success. Misses E. J. Darling and Dunnigan took a combined pleasure and business trip to Marshfield, Saturday. Miss Mary Rossman, who is teaching at Curtiss, spent Saturday and Sunday, in town, the guest of Mrs. E. F. Bowen. W. P. Dixon, of Kankakee, Illinois, spent a portion of Monday, in town, in the interests of the Goodyear Rubber Company. Rumor has it that there are three weddings to occur in the near future – a natural result of leap-year. Boys be on your guard. The epidemic which has been raging through our town of late, has so far abated that the school is again attaining its former size.
