The program was opened with a piano solo, "Moonlight on the Hudson." by-Miss Jordan, followed by a chorus, "Juniata," by puptlo ot tho Klghth grade of the Saratoga school. A vocal solo, "flood Night, My Child," was rendered by Miss Utley. Hay Collin of the Seventh grade of tho Saratoga school, who won tho ptlze for thnt grade at tho recent Homo Patronage contest, read tho prize-winning essay. This was followed by a select reading, "Tho Frenchman's Di lemma," by Miss Robinson. A whistling ehoniH nnd serenade by pupils of the l.lghth grade preceded tho reading of the prize-winning essays of tho Fourth and Klghth grades nt tho Home Patiouago contest by J. J. Smith. The report of tho club committee on sani tation and beautifying of grounds com pleted tho evening's program. This report was presented by J. V. Craig, who Illus trated his remarks with a plat showing two styles of parking olrcets. The plan whl.h ho favored was one showing two feet of grass 'between the sidewalk and the lot line, with six feet occupied with a row of sh.ulo trees between tho sidewalk and the drive way. This would require fourteen feet on each side of the street, reducing the spam ' to be paved In a sixty-foot street to thirty- 1 two feet, a wpaco ample for nil street pur- poses nnd which can be maintained nt about . half tho cost of an unpnrked street.

Tho men, who represented themselves ns employes of a well known , business houso In Kansas City, Introduced the trick by asking the clerks of tho hotels i to change silver money fnr bills. They had three packages of coins wrapped in paper, each packages bearing In red Ink the nmount contained nnd the nnmo nnd address. "E. J. Johnson. 716 Walnut street." Ono package contained $5 in quarters, another $10 In halves and a third $:0 in dollars. This request was repeated every day for a week, Each day tho hotel clerks would open tho pnekago and count the monoy bo fore passing over the bills. Finally, how ever, tho "con" men made It n point to call at a very busy time. Thoy submitted tho packages marked with rod Ink In the usual nf our products by tho government of storage reservoirs, which would not only keep tho water from committing damage, but would pormlt its utilization for irrlga tlon purposes nnd the consequent improve ment of tho west.
