DALLAS POST, DALLAS, PA. , SATURDAY, JUNE 15, 1929 —Alderson—- —(— Harvey's Lake is beginning to as- sume its summer aspect. Now that many of the schools are out the cot- tagers are moving in for the summer. Caretakers are busy mowing lawns and trimming hedges and housemaids are dusting and washing windows. In another few weeks Harvey's Lake will be in full bloom. The lake looks a little different at night now since the law has been passed requiring all boats to carry lights. This is certainly a very good law but we imagine it doesn’t seem so nice to the young couples who love to glide along under the moon in a canoe. A light on a canoe does seem rather unromantic, doesn’t it? Mrs. Harry Harris and children of Wilkes-Barre spent last week-end with Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Harris. The Rev. Mr. and Mrs. York at- tended the graduation exercises at Wyoming Seminary last Tuesday. Their daughter, Genevieve, graduated at that time.

George was riding a bicycle when the dog, who evidently did not like bicycle riders, attacked him and bit him on the leg. George is not dead yet and neither is the dog.

R. Tracey, vice president in charge of sales of the Oakland Motor Car Company an- nounces. : As a result of the volume achieved to date, Mr. Tracey stated that every indication points to a new high record for the year, substantially exceeding the previous record of 262,000 units sold during 1928. Despite a three-day vacation shut- down of the plant during the latter part of May, shipments for the month were 28,444 new Oakland A-1 Ameri- cans and Pontiac Big Sixes, according to Mr. Tracy. The high May figure brings the num- ber of cars shipped to dealers during the first five months of 1929 to 145,- 868 unite, a gain of eleven per Cent. Renald Davenport spent Monday in ‘Wilkes-Barre.

Mr. Welch’s sister, Edna, was a mem- ber of the graduating class. Ot HINTS FOR THE HOME —0— “What pieces of silver will she need first,” is a question that comes to all who make the bride a gift of sterling. And the most practical way to answer it is to lay out a dinner menue for at least four, and see just what is required to serve the meal correctly. For the soup course. Select 4 dessert spoons; they are quite proper, and can be used for serving spoons at other times. Instead of bread and butter spreaders, 4 tea knives. (These can also be used for breakfast and luncheon services.) For the meat course, 4 din- ner knives and forks; for salad, 4 dessert forks (instead of salad forks, which serve only the one purpoese): for dessert, 4 more dessert forks will be needed, and 4 after dinner coffee spoons. And to this collection it is wise to add a dozen tea spoons. “Sixes and eights” of each are of course the ideal numbers in the gift of sterling flat ware. But as a min- imum, the selection given will do the greatest service. at- -Laketon- —_—— Mr. Frank Higgins who has been ill is improving under the care of Dr. H. A. Brown of Lehman.
