On Friday evening Rev. P. L. Schenk
gave another illustrated lecture at the
chu rch , the subject being Abraham
Li ncoln. Memorial day coming at this
season suggested a patriotic theme
and the life of the great Civil war
leader and emancipator was most
fitti ngly chosen. The lantern slides
pictured Pres. Lincoln 's earliest sur-
roundings , his late r experiences , and
pa rticularly his closing years, and
death at Washington. Patriotic songs
and music were another feature of the
evening. The collection was appro-
priately taken for missionary work
amo ng the colored people of the South
who m Lincoln did so much to free.
At the services at the church yester-
(!a\ there was a notable array of flow-

WEST YARMOUTH
Street Lights Out
By order of the Prudential Commit-
tee of the Fire District the street
lighis have been discontinued.
It is the opinion of the Committee
that under the vote for the approi»ria-
tio n for street lights this money can-
not be used for present lighting. The
app ropriation was intended to carry
out the vote to contract for electric
light i ng.
Under the circumstances the Pru-
dential Committee ordered the lights
discontinued as above stated. It
seems now that either the Prudential
Committee will have to take the re-
sponsibility and order the lights
lighted and trust the district to pay
the bills , or call another meeting and
provide for the lighting until the elec-
t ric lights are installed.
At any rate we ought to have the
lights.

The worst mistake Io painting Is not
patting-off. That costs about 10 per-
cent; yoa keep your money a year end
pay 10percent lor It.
Paint would have to come-down 25 per-
cent to make ten percent on the job, for
wages do not go-down.
Tbe worst mistake is "cheap" paint.
It costs from 60percent to 100, first cost,
and another In wear.
What a liar "cheap" is! "Pot-ofl" is
bad enough; "cheap"is ten times worse.
