From its branches were hanged witches. traitors. and some Indians who had murdered white settlers. . . . The largest fun- .El'al ever held for a Boston boy took place in 1770. The youth was accidentally killed by a royalist during the hectic days just before the Revolution, and the funeral was made the occasion of a great popular gathering. The corpse was taken to the Liberty Tree on Essex Street amid tolling bells. Fifty school boys headed the pro- cession, followed by 2,000 citizens.

It came to us out of a dream. the substance of which we can no longer remember. only to know that it was entertaining and most agreeable. There had been no disturbing climax no awakening in terror. We recall drifting back from its flowei'Y paths at the sound of a voice. "El- len" James whispered, the only sound in this wide old house "would it be getting-up time yet?

Some 300 persons have been in- vited to the ball. set for Dec. 29. Social circles in the capital say it will be the first time the daugh- ter of a Governor-General has come of age during her father's term of office.

Along with the other debs, she will curtsey to her father, recog- nizing him as the King's official representative in Canada. Having Busy Time Black-haired. smiling-eyed Rose- ahe'x sometimes called "Rosie" by her friends-has been having a busy time of it these last few days. Not only is she keeping up with all the activities of a busy "deb". but she also is continuing -and intends lo continue-with her job in the downtown office of an insurance company. For the all-important party she will wear a frothy gown of lace and net. Folks at Government House Who have seen it say it's "Very lovely." It has a pale pink undersklrt, with full pleated net skirt and. over the whole. fine whlte and silver lace. Around the top of the matching bodice is a broadiribbon of deep- er plnk covered with the same ail- ver lace. If Rose is excited about the prospect of her party, so are me 30-odd other debutante: making their how this season to capital IOHEW.

Perhaps, all in all it was rather too challenging and nippy for the carpenter and his assistants who worked all day on the heights of the barn, saw- ing, hammering. shaping, mend- ing the ugly rent in the roof.

We know that emotional disturb- ances raise the blood pressure.
