“SNOW REMOVAL” LETTERS PUT
OVER ANOTHER WEEK
The Enterprise regrets that on account of lack of space, the letters from readers on the snow removal question will have to be put over one more week. It begins to look as if Old Sol will remove all the snow before we finish discussing the question. If our readers will have patience they can look for the publication of these letters soon. We hope to hear more from D. H. E. of Altamont next week. O. J. N. of East Berne “soaked” him rather hard two weeks ago, and D. H. E. is about due for a comeback. 

New Salem 

Mrs. Katherine Weidman was confined in her home last week with measles. Almost every child in this place has had the measles, and some older ones also this winter. 

West Berne 

—A cloud of gloom seems overshadowing this community. Our esteemed young friend, Fred D. Schoonmaker, who for a long time has been such a patient sufferer, is now lying in a critical condition. Heart felt sympathy is extended from all. 

—Miss Hazel Haverly entertained the members of the W. B. R. C. Tuesday evening. On account of the bad weather and other hindrances the crowd was rather light, but those who were privileged to be there had a good time. 

Fruit Tree Pruning to be Demonstrated 

Methods of pruning young and old fruit trees and vines of different varieties will be demonstrated by Prof. Pack of Cornell University in a series of meetings to be conducted by the Albany County Farm Bureau. 

The schedule includes: March 15—Berne, Watson Chesebro’s at 10 a.m., March 17—Altamont, Dr. Daniel Cook’s at 10 a.m, Guilderland Center, John York’s at 2 p.m. 

These meetings are open to the public and other questions regarding fertilization and general management of orchards will be in order. Some of these meetings are being held where there is not a great deal of fruit growing, but often at these places such demonstrations are more needed. 

Additional Locals 

—Through the efforts of Miss J. C. Wasson, Edward Rowe of Berne, one of the fiddlers taking part in the fiddlers contest at Voorheesville, will play for the square dancers at the Rod and Gun club dance to be given at the Masonic hall March 26th. Mr. Rowe will bring someone with him to play the piano. McGuirk’s orchestra of Albany will furnish music for the other dances. 

—Mrs. Millard Severson entertained the Mah Jong circle at her home Thursday afternoon. The first prize, a beautiful hand painted cracker jar, the hand work of Mrs. George Weaver, was awarded Mrs. Harry Fredendall. Mrs. Mead Sheldon received the consolation prize a dainty embroidered handkerchief. 

—If you can imagine all the complications that would result from a trial “Exchange of Wives” you have an idea of the amusing incidents in the picture that comes to the Masonic hall Saturday night. It is entitled “Exchange of Wives,” and is one of the finest, most consistently funny comedies seen in Altamont this season. It tells the story of two neighboring couples, the Rathburns and the Morans, whose lives become decidedly tangled and messed up, when Mr. Rathburn imagines himself in love with Mrs. Moran and Mr. Moran’s heart turns handsprings whenever he sees Mrs. Rathburn.
