past he had been suffering with Sc

Amateur theatricals are among the
probabilities, and an effort is being
made to secure performers from

bers of the Morris ideals will doubt
less be given the preference. as their

ferred by the management will be APP
preciated by the public. However,
we hope to see plays prepared and
presented at an early date, as there is
but little prospect of relief from the
present social dreariness, other than
may perhaps be provided by an oc-
casional euchre party. It is hard for
few Of US remaining unregenerates

Concrete Walks,

A concrete or cement walk can be
made in this way, which requires no
great skill in preparing the materials:
Take water lime and gravel or ashes, or
both. The gravel and ashes should be
put i'm q heap and wet Mix one barrel
of water lime with sharp, clean sand,
dry, being shoveled over back and forth
several times to get thorough mixture.
A portion is then mixed with water into
a thin, soft mortar and five parts of
the wet gravel on ashes are well mixed
with it, so that every fragment is coated
with the combining mortar. This Is
important for obvious reasons. This
concrete is spread on the graded walk
and beaten down with n rammer until
the moisture gathers on the surface.
Some of the dry sand OF cement is then
scattered over the surface to absorb the
moisture, and the surface is smoothcd
over with a rubber having a sloping
handle to woI K il back and forth. In a
few days this will become hard, and
harder with time. BY making division,
of thin strips of wood or tmTed paper
| this cement may be laid down in blocks,
squares or diamond shaped, and for
extra good walks the blocks may bC
colOred by mixing the finish coat with
! brown, gray, or other colors alternately
/ A clean walk from the front gate to the
| house is almost necessity, and add
| considerably to the appearance Of til,
