Mrs. Arthur Carr of Montpelier was a guest of friends in town the latter part of last week. Mrs. Carr will be remembered here as a former resident.

Among the week end visitors at Frank Archer’s were, Joel Cady, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Brown and Mrs. Florence Smith and daughter, all of Melrose, Mass.

Last Tuesday evening the “hello” girls tendered a tin and aluminum shower to one of their number, Miss Minnie Carr, at the home of Mrs. Guy Estell. Refreshments of ice cream and cake were served and the guest of honor was the recipient of a large number of useful gifts. The evening will be one long to be remembered by Miss Carr.

It has been definitely decided, weather permitting, to pull off the great married men’s game at Prospect Park next Tuesday afternoon, August 4^th, at 6:00 o’clock, and at least five innings will be played and seven, if possible. The game is called at that hour to allow all those taking part in game time to get there after 5:00 o’clock, and also to allow the fans, including clerks and merchants, whose stores close at 5:00 o’clock, an opportunity of attending. If those who do attend do not see more fun to the square inch in a game of baseball than ever before, we miss our guess. There will be a great list of material to pick from and several names have been added to the personnel of each team since last week’s list published in these columns. Nine of the best players will be picked from this game to play the single men at a latter date. The single men are already somewhat worried over the result of this prospective meeting.
