Rohan of the j^tate Liquor Authority has an- nounced: couple of our nine coco plumosa palm trees sufferin from a disease that causes them to wither at the top, but applied a recommended treat- ment and they seem to be improving. Due to the rainy summer the lawn _.id shrubs were in good shape, but the fruit seems smaller than usual at this time of year and a lot of it split and dropped, the result of too much water, but we will stilj have all we need. Our one Duncan grapefruit has only June bloom fruit and the Marsh seedless are not yet ripe, but friends and neighbors, with early fruit, have kept us well supplied. The past week we have had several cool days which is coloring up the fruit— it has to have cool weather to ripen —and we will soon have plenty in our own yard. For the first time we were early enough to find several avacadoes still on pur tree. We don't care for them alone, but mixed with lettuce or other vegetables they make a wonderful salad, requiring only lemon juice as they supply, plenty of oil—also plenty of calories! A few days after we arrived, we enjoyed a visit with Elon and Mar- ion Gallup, who stayed with us un-; til they rented a lovely little cottage a few blocks away, where they are enjoying the sunshine and plan to spend the winter. John and Marie Holmberg stopped on the way to their Hollywood home, and pur Dave Willsey, is staying ' '\ ' the. arrival of the- from-.

Last night Jini| and Ethel Zimm'er of Schoharie, who 'have a home here, called and- also; Nat and Charlotte Gallup, who ar-f- rived at Orlando Airport Thursday night. Nat's sister, Blanche Pitcher,; who has been ill the past? year, has^ improved so she is able to sit up a short time each day. We have a very good high school football team here and they had. a : big celebration last week at theirs home-coming game, featuring a big parade, with senior Ruth Carhart, formerly of- East Berne, as home- coming queen. Our town is already filled up and rentals are almost non-existent, but there are many new houses for sale. Most apartments and houses are rented on a year around basis and many winter residents rent-that way to be sure of a desiratole - -place, .to stay. We notice rents are\ definitely up and even small apartments, at' all desirable rent from $50 up and houses, if available, run from $500 •Up for the season. Even at these prices, the saving in heat and winter clothes brings living expenses well below what it is in most northern communities. Food prices are about the same as elsewhere except that citrus fruit is much cheaper and most • people have more than they need in their own yards. We went past the Porter home last week and saw it was open, 'but the car was gone so didn't stop. Ken- neth is president. of the New York Club ahd he and Mary Have many friends here. They were from Sche- nectady. Among other giphenectady people here are the Verner Hursts, the Andrew Stronskys and her sister, Margaret Flood, who bought homes here in the past few years. We jhear the Fred Edwards of-Cobleskill are in town but have not yet seen them. The T. C.

The official season, with regular entertainments at the tourist club, has not yet started, but the Novem- ber New York Club meeting is next week and we will know more of what is going on among transplanted I Capital District residents. Among others, were have seen briefly were Walter and Helen Armstrong, who came last Sunday and stopped to say \Hello.\ The Everett Hallenbecks, one time Voorheesville residents, stay the year around now, but we have not seen them as yet.

Six hundred Masons and their friends Will leave from New York city on the first annual Masonic cruise on Tuesday, Jan. 14, for 15 days.

Cap- tain Witherspoon has conducted cruises to all parts of the world. When buying stockings, remember that denier indicates the thickness or fineness of the yarn.
