The Lonely Ride

A boy or a man won’t need to whistle to keep up his courage on the lonely ride to the post ofllce or store after dark, when he carries an EVEREADY flashlight.

‘Many times, on your trip into the country, it will be necessary to walk or ride along roads with only the stars to light the way. Spooky shadows and scary noises won't bother you when you carry an EVEREADY flashlight.

Get one before you leave on your summer trip. Carry some extra EVEREADY unit cells along to ensure plenty of bright

l On Saturday at Bayileld, occur- ‘red the death of Mrs. John Ryan, a very. highly respected resident of {that district. Mrs. Ryan had been in fairly good health and the end came rather suddenly, despite the best oi medical attention. Bhewas truly an estimable woman, ever a friend to those in need. and her passing at a comparatively early age has cast a gloom over Eastern ‘King's. She is survived by hcr hus- band and several of a family.

We extend congratulations to Mas- ter John Denny, now of Charlotte- town, but formerlynf Sourls. who was successful in winning a city scholarship at the recent examina- tions.

A number of citizens of Sourls and vicinity motored to St. Colum- ba's on Friday evening, to attend the drama "A Fisherman's Luck," presented in their hall by the St. Columbsls Dramatic Club. They were well rewarded for the play was a decided success, each and every member of the cast performing his or her part in a manner which would do credit to professionals. Among the specialties were the Seller's Hornpipe and Highland Fling by Miss Mary Trainor, 0i Charlottetown. Needless to say these evoked much applause as they were truly superb. A tableaux-part of the play-also called forth much well merited praise, as the effect was indeed beautiful. A sale of cake brought the evening to a close.

Mrs. Mae Douglas and two chil- dren, Harold and Amy, of East Bos- ton, are visiting friends in For- tune.

Miss Olga White, Miss Annie Bushey and Master Eugene Lewis, of Sourls, were among the success- ful ones at matriculation. From For- tune Bridge, were Master Donald Bryanton and Miss Minnie McKen- zie, the latter being only 13 years of age.

“No, Uncle Dan," she said, inJ. low voice.

"That's the girl!" He patted her shoulder again. "Heaven knows I've no right to preach, but I'd rather _._s_Wlm in brimstonc than see Faith's daughter harmed. It doesn't pay to go crooked, Lila. I found that out."

“You don't think that I-—" Lila laughed hysterically.

“I don't think a single thing," he assured her. "Only these days, I understand it's pretty easy for a girl to get lnw all sorts of trouble. Well, we wcnttalk about it. I'll fix it so your story stands with your husband. Or, at least, I'll try to. It'll be kind oi hard to acquire a son who was killed in the war. though."
