SERMON THOUGHT
We had a fine and helpful sermon
from Mr. Meth last Sunday when
he spoke of "Perfection " from the
text, "Be ye therefore perfect, even
as your Father in Heaven Is per-
fect " and assured us that while
absolute perfection is impossible ,
It is a goal toward which we should
strive at our Father's command.
FRIENDSHIP GUILD
The Friendship Guild holds its
regular business and social meet-
ing of the month at the vestry,
December 5. Refreshments will be

month is to be Mrs. Charles Hallett
and Mrs. Stephen Fuller, who will
have charge of Guild activities.

mainder have been added four Ten-
derfeet, -who are now in training.

FAMILY GATHERING
The entire Kelley family set

Hyannis residence. Included were
Mr. and Mrs. Richard Lewis and
Mr. and Mrs. Howard Lewis of Os-
terville , Mr. Theodore Kelley, and
Misses Blanche and Ethel Kelley of
Centerville and Mr. Harry Angell
from Rhode Island. Mrs. Lillian
Eldridge was confined to her home
by illness but shared the feast and
was able to enjoy her relatives'
visits. On the day before Thanks-
giving, Capt. and Mrs. Angell
quietly observed the fifty-seventh
anniversary of their marriage.
Calls, gifts and flowers were re-
ceived and a party from Taunton
brought a beautiful and delicious
cake.
THANKSGIVING PARTIES
Most of the Cole household par-
took of the Thanksgiving dinner
with friends or relatives. Mrs . Eliz-
abeth Darling went to Cotuit to be
with Mrs. Frieda Landers; Mrs.
Mary Betz and Miss Annie Stockin
were entertained by Mr. and Mrs.
Clifford Waterhouse at their homo
in Centerville. Mrs. Waterhouse be-
ing Miss Stockin 's niece; Mrs. Ella
Libbey went on a visit to Cotuit
for several days, including Thanks-
giving, with her son-in-law and
daughter , Mr. and Mrs. Reginald
Bolles; Miss Margaret Boyd was
the guest of her brother and sister-
in-law , Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Boyd,
of Brookline, at Rof-Mar Lodge.
Mrs . Annie Cole was hostess at

nan; Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Fuller
and two children , Christie and
Stephen; Mr. and Mrs. Edward
White and son, Marc; Miss Eliza-
beth Nye , and Miss Dorothy Wor-
rell.
"To remember as you pass by."
Centerville is now a residential
village, with no more business ven-
tures than the needs of its people
daily . require. But in past time
thriving businesses have been lo-
cated within its limits.
Erase for a moment the distin-
guished residences of Mr. Jones
and Mrs. Quinn which decorate
South Main Street and see in their
place a busy ship yard , with piles
of lumber and necessary equipment
and a boat or two at the water 's
edge, under construction. Here, ac-
cording to the memory of descend-
ants of these men, were located the
building operations of James Cros-
by, Jonathan Kelley and Samuel
Crosby. Here, according to the Old
Home Week Book , were construct-
ed some 29 sizeable boats, with the
names of those for whom they were
built and this was between 1824
and about IStiO. The book shows the
picture of a handsome sloop, the
"Nelson Harvey," which was built
for one Nelson Bearse. The view
was taken in RockpOrt , Me., from
which port it was then transporting
granite.
Mr. Kelley built himself a sub-
stantial residence, which is now
the home of the Hallett family and
of Mr. and Mrs . Paul Doiron.
Suggested reading for this week
might be this very same Old Home
Week Book of which there should
be more copies in the hands of the
village.

her arguments were supported by
several other speakers; namely,
Adolphe Richards, E. Thomas Mur-
phy, David Hasckel and Vincent
O'Nell. Mr. O'Neil said that as long
as the line eould be shown as In
use, the land could not legally be
sold. Thus, Mrs. Scudder could tie
the matter up for a long time to
come. Some discussion took place
on the wisdom of diverting traffic
from Main Street, if a highway
were ever put through there. Mr.
Murphy maintained it would hurt
the merchants, while Mr. Calvin
Crawford gave his opinion that it
would leave Main Street free for
shoppers and through traffic would
not clog the street.
Mrs. Scudder declared she would
willingly sell to the Town that
part of the land lying between her
property and Main Street at the
