ed date in its history Two hundred

event calls for respectful recognition
and a recognition also. which shall
prove instructive. and, it Is hoped. an
inspiration.

The local HIstOrIcal Socitey will rise
to the occasion. and may be trusted to
inaugurate cermonles which will be
worthy the old settlement. The sub-
Ject will comc prominently before the
association. at its annual meeting on
Wednesday evening. next attendance
at which. on the part of every mem»

Wes port. Stamford. Daabury and
Norwulk. The hall presented a brll-
liant appearance. the decorations
about the room being tastefully ar-W
ranged. The ball was not only suc«
cessful from a financial viewpoint, but
was a most pleasant event socially.
The members of the Court proved
themselves agr'enbic hosts, doing all In
their power for the entertainment of
the attendants. Music was furnished
by Svec‘s orchestra, and the musicians
added materially to the affair by a
number of choice concert selections.
which were admirably rendered. film'-
ry Richmond, of Norwalk, was the
prompter.

A happy event in connection with
the ball, and one which demonstrated
the pleasant relations existing be-
tween the officers and members of the
Court, was the presentation to Chief
Ranger Ernest it. Hopkins. by District
Deputy Chief) Itanger D. P. McKcnna
of Westport. on behalf of the local
Court. of a magnificent past chief ram:-

a close last night. There was another
large attendant-c. the ball. in the early
part of the evening being faxed to Its
capacity. Tho various attractions and
booths were accorded liberal patron-
age. It is probable that the prcscui
fair will show as gratifying financial
results as any previously held by u

'I‘bc program last night was fully as
enjoyable as that of the preceding cv~
ening. It included selectionsby .icssc
Hopson's violin orchestra. readings by
Miss Maude Id. Wolffc. a piano ductt.
and a repetition of the hoop drill by
the young Iadics of' the High School.
The. selections by ”It“ orcllcstra of III-
tecn young musicians, were of a very
pleasing character. The orchestra
gave evidence of the very consoled
tlous training of Professor I-Iopsou.
and as he personally directed It. tin-
selecfions all through the evening
were consequently rendered In an ex‘
ccilent manner. 'I‘hc solo by Iludolph
Wilcok was one of the gems of the
evening. and he was obliged to rcspond
to an encore.

Miss Wolff’c. who is the dircctor of

her second appearance before u Nor-

tion of Into. olegivto the spread of
small‘pox in New: ork city. The Nor~
walks have many. citizens who are in
the metropolis‘daily; and in danger of
spreading the. contamination. Years
ago one of tho firbt‘precautious taken
was to Vaccinate children. but a poll of
the local pbyislcinus will show that
during the lost your there will not be
an average of three to a doctor.

It has therefore been deemed best
to caution the public and urge that
vaccination become more general. for
though Nomik has escaped in the

that the town will always have this im-
