class they had rather visit than to take
their children to Sabbath school. am
very sorry it is so, but we must have pa
tience and perseverance to stamp all ob-
Stacies under our feet and above all live
close to Christ and follow after him so
closely that we may induce all to come.
Let US lay aside all malice and strife and
become a united band working for the

Our popular truck man gave fishing
party Saturday. The men were to do the
fishing, while the women cooked the

was there. She said they had good
time and fine dinner. The men went
into the pond and caught the fish in their
hands. standing in the mud and water
nearly 3 feet. They had aboul bucket
full of fish about inches long, and one
