An examination was made ol the scene of the accident by his son Clifford yester- day, and he found that the trolley pole was but three feet from the track and a passenger upon the running board would have to stand parallel with the board to avoid being etruck. It is on a slight carve aud decline and the car at the time was running without power.

The evening was an ideal one for a lawn party, and this no doubt helped to swell the numberee bad gathered. Chinese lanterns illomi- nated the place and the booths, presided over by young ladies of the parish, were decorated with the national colors. A dancing platform had been built on the grounds and here many found enjoy - mont until the party was over, the American brass band orchestra furnish Ing the music for the dancers, while the Americau brass band gave au excellent musical programme. The booths were generously patronized and the affair was

a complete surprise in every way. A goodly number were present from Woon- socket, Medway and the Attleboros. The different committees who arranged the affair and had charge of the tables

were: General manager, Miss Elizabeth Lamont; committee on decoration, Mieses Margaret Sullivan, . Rose Macdermott,

A Letter to Boys.

DEAR Boys: Believing that [ will reach the ears of a larger number of you through the columns of the SENTINEL than through my preaching on the Lord's day, 1 take this method of addressing you. I am glad to know that you are having a good, long vacation from study, to ramble through the woods. May I ask you to be klud to the birds? It is eo much more pleasant to have them with us. Life is more cheerful because of their presence. Do not throw stones at them bor kill them. Do not rob their wests of eggs or the young birds. It is cruel and unkind. They are so beautiful in appearance and they sing so sweotly that to one should think of doing them harmı. Even if the English sparrow should be killed, as some people say, you and I should not kill them. The town authorities should do it by the proper methods. Let me also remind you that there is a law against robbing birds' tests and killing birds. You can be arrested and compelled to pay a fine. It is nevel wise to violate the laws of the common- wealth. I have heard lately of a number of hoys who, thoughtlessly, ] trust, have been guilty of such violation.
