In my last said that / would say
something on schoolhouses, churches
and society. We are destitute Of
what we cali good houses, only Fl,
for summer use, and we are able tc
build good houses and have oul
schools in the winter, for that is the
best time to educate the farmers
children. We should take greater
interest In this, as we have lumber
handy to build. II we do not think
we are able to build a church these
houses will do to hold services in
and you members should look after
place to hold yourselves as body
and then you will not have the
trouble that you are having at this
present time to get your members to
return to the fold as you have left
them out Of the house OF God all win,
ter exposed to the evil Of the world,
and now you begin in the month OF
March to hold your meetings, very
cold weather to hold service in an
old house that has been given up to
the stock all winter. But now we
find great fire in front the door and
one smoked lantern to give light.
Now you leading members and teach
ers must go to work and get up some
interest or else you will go down,
for the people must have some place
to go and have their pleasure, and
you will find 40 long as you leave
these winter days and nights idle
the Young and gay will play and
dance away. / will say to the young
men OF Cave, as VIC have some as
fine young men as the country af-
fords-do not try to rob the church
OF her members, and all try to do
right. | will omit societies TIL my
