If there is school in the state with
better record of attendance than this last
one, we should be glad to hear from 1t.
There has been some Improvement in the
attendance in our schools, still there is
room for more. L. n
sHoREHAM.
The heavy shower of Sabbath evening
nassed this way and caused considerable
damage to the highways and crops in the
north part OF the town, in some cases
prostrating whole fields of corn and
grain.
We noticed one man starting out early
Monday morning to look after eight loads
l.. 1Ot ~ hat ha loft in
good condition Saturday night, but about
noon he returned looking very sobcr-he
could not find his hay. 1t had taken lit
tie trip, and gone to some watering place,
we presume.
Another man hunting for his moving
machine on Monday morning, found it I'M
der water.
Among the visitors in town we notice
Capt. and Mrs. Chapman from Niles, Mich
igan, at Mr.. Grin Cooper's; Mr.. and Mrs.
William Moore of Hartford, at Mr.. Sam
uel Moores; Mr.. and Mrs j. Smith Jones
of Boston, at Alanson Towners and Miss
Clemmie Davis of New York is spending q
few weeks with her friend Miss Minnie
| Platt
The repairs upon the academy are rapid
| ly progressing. We learn that the COM
mittee, as yet, have engaged no teacher,
although they have numerous applica tons
| for the position. 1t is their aim to secure
a first-cass man, hoping thereby that the
former prestige of this school may be re-
| gained.
We notice that Mr.. George Bascom, the
| gentlemanly agent of the Brandon lime and
marble company of Leicester Junction, has
| been at Larrabee's Point this week ship
| rinr thair npcOp5 ooruO pf limo | o00 hor-
rels, to New York city, and we understand
that they have another order for August.
1 This route enables them to ship large guam
l titles of lime to New York, and they are
taking advantage of it. This company are
now running three kilns and are driven TO
their fullest capacity to supply their orders.
We learn that they are repairing fourth
kiln to start Immediately for the fall trade.

| Sunday morning the Rev. =. G. Dayfoot
| preached to quite large congregation from
| Colossans I'd aud 9th Gas we have there
fore received Christ Jesus the Lord 60
walk we in HIM." A large delegation from
the Methodist church was present. The
choir cling admirably well and furnish ex-
cellent music when occasion requires.
There is also fourishing Sunday school
connected with this church.
| The second quarterly meeting occurred
| at the Methodist church on Sunday. The
Sunday school convened at o'clock p. m,
after which love feast was held in the
vestry, which was beautifully decorated
with evergreens. Over the desk was the
word "Welcome," on the opposite side of
the room, "God is love-" This was real
feast of christian experience, thirty-one
| testimonies being given in twenty-elght
minutes. Presiding Elder M. B. Mead then
preached discourse. The pastor and men,
bers of the Baptist church were present.
The excellent discourse from EphesianS,
iv:15, the progress of christian growth
was thoroughly explained. The Sacrament
of the Lords Supper was partaken of by
the members of the church.
