Miss Annie Fox, teacher, and
Miss Jane Henry, p'-pil, have been
making a strong fight in the 1'imcs
contest for a trip to the Pan-American
Exposition. In a long list of
contestants they have held their
places as 7th and 8th in the list, but
as they would have to get more than
twice as many votes as they have
now, to put them among the first
four, they have decided to relin
quish the fight, as it would be al
most impossible to gain the neces
sary number to put them among the
successful ones. Miss Kshinke, of
Berwick, stands 4th, and if the
votes that have been going to Miss
Fox would be given for her,
she no doubt could hold the place.
Let every reader of the Times turn
in and help Miss Kshitike, and
make her one of the four teachers
of the state who are to go to tha
Exposition as the guests of the
Times.

fertory solo was sung by Mrs.
Annie Miller Melick of Philadel
phia. She selected for this number
"The Holy City," and sang it with
great expression and sweetness, and
her visit to her old home was greatly
enjoyed by her many friends who
had the opportunity to hear her sing
again. In the evening Mrs. Mel
ick and Mr. Colley sang "Love De
vine" and Mrs. Melick repeated
"The Holy City" by request. The
organ selections by Mrs. Maude
Runyou Colley were all very pretty,
and skillfully played, and included
"Elegie" by Grieg, "Message" by
.Schumann, "Evening Prayer" by
Reinecke, and "Rbapsodie" by
Gigout.
