Installati on of G. A. R. Officers. •
Members and associate members of
Theodore Parkman Post assembled in
Howard Hall on Monday evening last
tor the annual installation of officers.
About fifty were present. Comrade
Frank Thacher of Post 132 was in-
stalling officer and Edward W. Childs
v.as officer of the day. At the open-
ing of the exercises in the lower hall
Adjutant Haskell humorously pre-
sented Commander Soule with a gavel
and said in part: "It may be a relic
of the war and if I am not mistaken
it was made from a part of the war-
ships Bienville and Tallaposa."
Adj. Haskell also spoke of the re-
cent strikes in the country and said
he thought it would be a good idea
for the commanders to strike. He
therefore took pleasure in presenting
Commander Soule with a gavel that
he might strike.
In accepting the gavel Commander
Soule gave a brief history of these
ships in which he served in Ue war.
Commander Soule was installed for
the 13th term as commander and com-
rade Putnam for the 16th term as
quartermaster. After the installation
was a program .which appears below

cellent. Miss Mamie Lincoln as usual

Annual Church Roll-cail
The annual roll-call and business
meeting of the Congregational church
occurred Thursday. Although it was
a cold day and several were not able
to be present on account of illness,
nineteen sat down to the sumptuous
din ner prepared by the committee.
After dinner came the business
meeting and roll-call. Letters were
read from twelve absent members.
The reports from the different de-
partments of the work showed that
the little church was holding its own
even in the face of changing condi-
tions.
Three have joined the church dur-
ing the past year, and three have
been lost through death. The three
removed through death were Mrs.
Harriet Stockwell, Mrs. Jane Richard-
son and Mrs. Mercy Lovell

Treasurer—Dea. Owen Crosby.
Treasurer of the Missionary Depart-
ment—Mrs. Hiram R. Kelley.
Standing Committee—Mrs. T. Cros-
by, Mrs. M. J. Marchant, Mrs. C. E.
Whitford , Dea. O. Crosby and Mrs.

The following were elected for the

rison Lumbert, Mrs. Arthur Lake,
Mrs. Marcus Haskell and Mrs.

Mr. Aretas Loomis, Mrs. Wm. Lum-
bert and Mrs. Herbert F. Kelley were
elected as the transportation com-
mittee.
It was voted that Mrs. J. Hallett
procure printed cards for church pur-
poses. Plans for future work were
discussed..
It was decided that on cold and
stormy Sundays during the remainder
of the winter, the morning service
shall be in the vestry, and that on
cold and stormy Thursday evenings
the prayer meetings shall be held In
the pastor's study.
One of the recent encouraging feat-
ures in the work and life of the church
is the development of church con-
sciousness and the meaning of
Christian Fellowship.
Although winter is young we have
had several snow storms beginning
with Dec. 31st. According to the sign
31 snow storms in all may be looked
for this winter.
Mrs. Menzies went to Boston for a
visit the 6th.
Mr. E B. Worrell of Dorchester was
a visitor in Phinney's Lane the first
of the week.
Our business men who are interest-
ed in getting ice had their ice-houses
filled the past week with an average
of 8-inch ice. Now whatever the wea-
ther decides to give us there will be
plenty of ice next summer.
Mr. Starck as usual gave nls help-
ers a good, hot dinner.
Capts. C. E. and Z. D. Bearse and
J. B. Austin were in Edgartown the
first of the week.

Mrs. Alonzo P. Crosby Wednesday
afternoon at 2.
OSTERVILU
O. V. I. 8.
The concert given by the Im.rove-
ment Society last Wednesday evening
was much enjoyed by those who at-
tended.
Although the audience was not
large, it was appreciative and gave
close attention to every number.
Many have expressed the opinion
that it was one of the most enjoyable
entertainments ever given by ttie
O. V. I. S.
This concert was the first in 'the
course and necessarily expensive and
while the Society may feel somewhat
discouraged over the financial result
yet they are glad to be instrumental
in making such a refined entertain-
ment possible in so small a community
The singing by Mrs. Barreli was
well received. The selections by Miss
Gifford, the harpist, were well rend-
ered and heartily applauded. Miss
Bewley, the reader, proved herself to
be talented and gave her selections
in a pleasing manner.
Miss Bowman, the pianist presided
in an easy, graceful manner and
showed marked ability as an accom-
panist.
If the public will show an increased
interest in these entertainments the
O. V. I. S. will be glad to make the
course correspondingly attractive and
the actual loss financially will be les-
sened.
Let everyone do what they can to
make these entertainments a success.
Fire
On Monday afternoon of last weelc
tire was discovered in an ash bin be-
side the stable in the rear of East Bay
Lodge. The fire communicated witn
the stable and a general alarm was
given.
Mr. S. N. Ames, who resides near-
by, hastened to the fire with two of
the town's fire extinguishers and
others took along other extinguishers
that Mr. Ames had on his place.
These and the timely discovery of
the blaze enabled those present to
sj eedily put it out..
Tile damage will not exceed ?100.
It was a fortunate escape from a
serious fire, for had the barn gotten
well underway the hotel would have
probably been consumed.
Miss Bearse wishes to thank all
those who responded so quickly to
the alarm of fire on Monday last.

of Yanno Post, 213, G. A. R., and its
auxiliary , thuuu tvuuian s Kenei
Corps 175, which was joint and pub-
lic, took place last Tuesday evening
at headquarters. Although the
weather was unfavorable for the old
soldiers and there were, thereby,
some absences yet the members of
the organizations and guests present
numbered about one hundred.
The installing office rs were: for
the Post Comrade Frank Thacher and
for the Corps Mrs. Hattie Murphy of
the Chatham Corps and the work
done was pronounced of the excellent
order which makes even the formali-
ty of the ritual service interesting.
Yanno Post like all others is con-
stantly suffering depletion and now
numbers but 11 members.
It ia weil that the auxiliaries of the
G. A. R. Posts, the Woman's Relief
Corps are larger and stronger, that
they may help to perpetuate the work
of the old soldiers as well as to assist
in caring for the veterans and making
lighter their burdens during the re-
mainder of the march.
After the installation, the guests
were invited to participate in the pro-
gram. Mrs. Murphy, the installing
officer, made remarks which were en-
joyed and appreciated and Mrs.
Christie W. GIbbs, who alwayB has
something worth while to say, spoke
for the Corps.
Among those who added to the in-
terest of the occasion by their pres-
ence and by happy responses to the
invitation to address the company
were: Principal Wm. A. Baldwin of
the Hyannis Normal school. Princi-
pal L. M. Boody of the Barnstable
High school, Superintendent of
Schools George H. Galger, and Mr.
Walter D. Baker.
Later a committee from the Corps
served refreshments of sandwiches,
ice cream, cake and coffee.
Members of the Post and Corps feel
that this was one of the pieasantest
of their installations.

the second year of her work as presi-
dent of the Corps and is to be con-
gratulated upon the large measure of
