14TH BIRTHDAY OF
SCOUT MOVEMENT 

The fourteenth birthday of the Boy Scout Movement in America will be celebrated during the week beginning February 8th. The first event on the program will be a mass meeting in Chancellor’s Hall on Friday evening, February 8th, at which time the Scouts of the Fort Orange Council will join with the scouts all over the country in repeating the Scout Oath simultaneously. The mass meeting program will include the awarding of various medals indicating the different honors that have been won by the Scouts during the year. Championship Cups will be awarded to successful Troops and stunts and motion pictures will round out the evening’s activities. 

COLDEST WINTER WEATHER
REACHED HERE SUNDAY 

When the Capital district woke up Sunday morning, the early birds found it from 16 to 26 below zero at various points in the hills of Albany and Schenectady counties. The wind let up on Sunday, but the intense cold lingered with us, and Monday morning it was still below zero. 

QUAKER STREET 

Keep in mind the fact that our village is soon to have movies again, this time in the village hall. The community movie committee is busy with the matter. 

DELMAR 

Delmar is most fortunate in having for one of its newer residents Mrs. Robert Titus. Mrs. Titus is a graduate of the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music, chartered under the Board of Regents of N.Y. state, and is now planning to devote some of her time to the giving of piano lessons. Mr. Titus finds Delmar a most convenient center for his trucking business, the Delmar Express, which he recently purchased from Thomas Irving. 

BERNE 

— The young people who attended the birthday party of Miss Kathryn Schell last Saturday evening declared they had a right good time. Not a bit cold inside if the thermometer did say twenty below zero outside. 

— Daniel J. Lendrum had the misfortune to have the radiator of his new truck freeze and burst on the road last Saturday. 

— Mrs. Jesse Sholtes had the misfortune to fall from a chair on Wednesday and in attempting to catch herself, threw her hand on the hot stove, burning it severely. 

— While drawing out wood this week, James A. Wright had the misfortune to get his foot caught between a stone and the sleigh runner and sprained it severely. 

DORMANSVILLE
Someone visited Albertus Applebee’s henhouse one night last week and helped themselves to about forty hens. This is the second time his henhouse has been visited. We begin to think that he will have to bring them in nights if any are to be saved.

FOR SALE OR TO LET — A house and lot in Guilderland Center, about one acre of land, with good fruit of different kinds. I have seen ads in the papers stating that “none with children need apply.” I will let this property to persons with children just as soon as to those without children. For every child that is born in this house while I have the management of it, I will deposit $5.00 in the Altamont bank as a beginning of a savings account. — F. Van Wormer, Dunnsville.
