For this reason the members of the West Baptist church, of Vineland, have decided to do without chimes or even ope bell. And the church needs one, as some of the deacons are prone to overslecp themselves and show up late for the service, The necessity for a bell became very apparent not long ago? but there was ho money in the church treasury After discussing the matter aod dis covering a disinclination on the part of the deacons to go down into their awn pockets to find the cash, Frank Marston evolved the idea of an enter taipment. He employed a number of young women, beautiful of face and figure, and gave a performance in the town hall. The tickets sold well and a large audience was present. When the show opened gasps were heard in different parts of she hall, and feminine . voices became audible, asking the men to "come home and not, look at the huseies."

Some oi the actresses were in short skirts; Others wore tights. and altogether it was a shape. ly exhibition. The ontertainment. finally came to an end. The next day there was en ough money to purchase a bell. When the cash was offered to the treasurer of the church he refused it. A BOY SOLDIER. Kingston Boy Perhaps Youngest Canadian In South Africa.
