MALONE MAN TELLS SNAKE

Frank X. Tobin. editor of On-the-St. Lawrence, a paper published atClayton, recently ground out the fol-lowing snake story which is one ofj;he best we have ever seen publish-ed. All ,of Mr. Tobin's Malonefriends know for a certainty thatseeing snakes'' is beyond the possi-

bilities of 'our genial friend, and wecan thtis give the story without cast-ing reflections upon the author. Hesays: "All the old woodsmen know,that the common black snake is;the right downdest coward, and theslickest thief that crawls. He willrun like a streak of greased light-ning to get away from a two-year-old baby, and, if you set a lunch bas-ket down in the woods and he is any-where about you, you won't get faraway before he will have a share ofthe contents.

Mr. Lawrence is an ardent Republican and was a promineat-eandidatifor the nomination for district $Ttorney last year, the vote in the MJlone caucus being close between hi;and Dist. Att'y. Genaway precedttthe county convention. He is an 1nfJuential member of the Young Men'Republican Club and a-trust«e of thNorthern X. Y. Institution, for DeiMutes. His advance in his profes-sion has been rapid and gratifyingto his many friends in this oommunity. Messrs.

Miss Perry Honored By Teachers oiThe Malone Grades.

The teachers of the Malone gradecschools tendered Miss Sarah L.

The room wasbeautifunytrimmed with festoons oiwhite and green crepe paper, jmi lsnowballs and other white flowers iplates were laid for 42 persons. Mrs,Lawless catered and the bill of faxewas complimented highly.

After a social hour and exchangeof greetings the participants foundtheir places at table in an unique maniier by a scheme of place cards. Af-ter the first course all the dinenprogressed and changed places, making the function more delightful so-ciaily. The banquet was followed bya programme of toasts which provedmost entertaining. Miss Mary Gibsonresponded by instrumental selectionson the piano, and Mrs. Hattie Grantwith vocal selections. Mrs. W. B,Donovan gave some of her pleasingrecitations. Miss Ola LaLime spokefeelingly of "The Past' ' and Mrs,Helen Ames of 'The Future." ThenMrs. Helen Gillard for the teachers,presented Miss Perry with an elegantengraved book plate, containing hername and a mdesign by Miss Winifred Dustin. to-gether with 250 prints from the plate,to be used by Miss Perry in labelingher books. There were also presentedfour ten dollar gold pieces. Mrs.Gillard's appropriate words were re-sponded to by Miss Perry with rareappreciation and feeling. Miss Mar-ion Whitney made an admirable toast-mistress.

After the presentation allunfermented grape juice from a lovtngcup, each giving an appropriate quota-tion which was written on a cardwith the name of the person whogave it. These cards were afterwardspresented to Miss Perry as mementoesof an occasion which she will longremember with pleasure and satisfac-tion. The affair was a worthy trib-ute to a lady who has spent the bestyears of her life in working arduously
