VILLAGE NOTES.

— The price of milk has been raised to 8 cents a quart.

— The water in the village reservoirs is very low. The people will do well in using it as economically as possible.

— A party consisting of Lyman Hanes, Walter Keenholts, Charles Flick of New York, John Keenholts and Arnold Keenholts of East Knox, left yesterday on a hunting trip. Livingstonville is their destination. Tremaine J. Schell is substituting as mail carrier for Walter Keenholts during his absence.

DUNNSVILLE.

A flock of 60 wild geese passed south over this village Sunday.

— Mother’s Troubles — 

Mother’s unending work and devotion drains and strains her physical strength and leaves its mark in dimmed eyes and careworn expressions — she ages before her time.

Any mother who is weary and languid should start taking Scott’s Emulsion of Norwegian Cod Liver Oil as a strengthening food and bracing tonic to add richness to her blood and build up her nerves before it is too late.

BERNE.

Master Mead Kniskern narrowly escaped drowning in the mill pond recently. He succeeded in clinging to the boat landing while his playmate Kenneth Ayers, summoned aid.

STATE ROAD SOUTH BERNE.

— Several of the children of East Berne have the chicken pox.

— Olin Sisson is building an ice house for Mrs. Howard Hendrickson at her summer home here.

New Fence, Gates and Arch at Entrance of South Berne Cemetery.

The South Berne Rural Cemetery association, which in the past has been so careful to keep the cemetery in good condition, and has made improvements and additions to the cemetery as conditions have required, felt that the time had come when the wooden fence and gates at the entrance of the grounds had served their day and generation. With this in view they bestirred themselves, appointed a committee and proceeded to raise money to place at the entrance a new iron fence, gates and arch. The deed is accomplished. The fence and gates have been erected, posts set in concrete, and we trust these will withstand time and the elements for many years to come.
