ri0usly apr0arOus, from the use Of some bad

ofthe immediate vicinity. Thereupon Jus
tice Mussey issued writ for their arrest.
and requiring them to inform where they
had obtained the material for so much iu-
bilarity, but owing to their confused braoeru
at the time, together with the backing up
of some of their particular friends, not
quite as confused as themselves, that they
would bail them to the extent of their
means, the required information was not
obtained, and after a nights rest, part of
which was had under tree in the village,
they became tolerably good citizens, and 1t
was thought not best to pursue the subject
at present
PREsENTATIoN.-Dea Loring Frost was
agreeably surprised the other day by call
from three or four young ladies, members
of his class in Sabbath school, who present.
ed him in behalf of the class an elegant
steel plate engraving of the parable of the
Lily framed in black walnut, and also a
copy of Campbell's poems. The deacon
has had charge of the same class of young
ladies for about five years past, and this
presentation was made by them as a token
of their appreciation of his value as teach
er and instructor. Dea. Frost may be said
to be the father of Sabbath schools in this
town if not in the county. In the summer
Of 1928, he organized the first Sabbath
school in town at the Center, and at the
same season one at the village, one of which
he would attend in the forenoon and the
other in the afternoon, and in one capacity
or another has been connected with one of
them ever since. In 1917 he also organized
the first Sabbath school in Barton, where
he then resided. The Deacon thinks the
Sabbath schools of the present day with all
their paraphernalia of superintendents,
teachers, question books and libraries quite
different thing from what they were then,
when all the scholars had to do was to arise
in their places and repeat one or more YER
ses from the Bible or hymn book which
had been committed to memory.

going down hill.
