Concerning ssPorgrammes."

A typographical error in small job
issued from this office the past week
that has created considerable talk in
some quarters, made the word pro-
gramme read programme" When
the error was discovered, trifling
though it was, the order was .duplicat-
ed us far us practicable at our own ex-
pense. This way of doing business is
commended to those who indulge in
mistakes of graver nature, say, for
example, mistake of $1,000 that ap-
peared on the 33rd page of this years
town report, a more absurd and mis-
leading error, even, than reckoning
soap grease at a cent and half a bar
rel, shorts ut one cent Il bushel, or
whiffietree chains ut $50 each, as ap-
peared in this same report.
III. @. Bates Delegate.
Mr.. Editor Il noticed in last week S
Caledonian that ii. G.. Bates, the Gale
donia Co. senator who was one of the
committee that reported to the senate
a bill advocating high license for Yer
mont, is a probable candidate for the
hOnors of president making in Chicago
next June. Does a man who advocates
license high or low represent the aver
age Vermont republican If he does is
it not about time people generally un-
derstood it Or have they forgotten
all about it ? Depend upon it there is
one class who have not forgotten about
it, and they are planning with all
their skill to make good their boast
that Vermont in 1892 or earlier will be
a license instead of prohibition state.

Charity at Home.

In the local Congregational churches
as well as in churches of the same de-
nomination throughout the state a
special appeal was read on Sunday
urging the churches to unite in lifting
the debt of $4,000 which is discOurag-
ingly loading down the work and the
workers of the Vermont Domestic Mis-
siOnary society. In the South church
this special collection was taken up
last Sunday and in the North church it
will be taken up next Sunday. More
ministers supply two or more churches
each in Vermont than in any other
eastern state, and more self -sacrific-
ing class of men cannot be found. The
committee we'll says that by aiding
the churches in the smaller communi
ties of Vermont we are in the wisest
way assisting the large cause of home
missions, for these little churches are
the sources from which the greater
country South and West is supplied
with men, and work here repeats itself
and is multiplied elsewhere.

Anniversary Sermon.

Rev. E. T.. Sandford preached an
church Sunday, that day marking the
twelfth anniversary of the organiza-
tion of this church. His text was
Psalms 80:5, "Thou hast brought Il
vine out of Egypt" The thought of
the sermon was, that as the vine is
worthless except it bear fruit, so the
church is not formed merely that it
may grow like vine but that it may
bear fruit as well. Mr.. Sandford said
that when he came here the question
as to whether or not the church would
live was an unsolved problem. When
organized there were 35 resident mem
bers, while today there are 95; OF
these | | being survivors of the original
35. The liberal giving that has been
one of the chief characteristics of this
church was noted. Though having far
from a wealthy membership, fully
| S2500 has been contributed to work
entirely outside the fund necessary tC
support the home organization, which
until within few years has itself beer
missionary church. Another notable
| feature of the work of the church ha.
been the fact that IS per cent. of addi
tiOns to its membership has beer
through its Sunday school. 1t mus
be confessed that it is doubtful if there
is another church in the community
that can make better showing pro
