leads citizens to boast that no child born in
this country need grow up in ignorance, and
learned to read and write have never taught
themselves to think. A man who suffered

 During the four years pastorate of Rev H. NJ Hazeltine, the Congregational church hsis been helped forward. A Young Peoples Society of Christian En- deavor was formed more than three years ago, one of the first in this part of the State. This society is doing good work among the young people, making them helpful and useful. The ladies, amid dscouragements, have erected, with persistent energy, commodious and pleasant building for chapel and church parlors. These rooms have cost in building and furnishing more than $1100 and of this there remains now only $500 unpaid. The Sunday school has prospered, both in interest and numbers and the yearly benevolences of the church have been advanced from $60 to $200. Another point not directly con nected with the church work deserves mention. Misses Lizzie and Alice Hazel tine have carried on a private school of high character, which is recognized as d power for good. All this shows that suc- cessful Christian work may be done in small country church, making it a living influence for lasting good.

 It would seem that petition to call a town meeting to instruct the selectmen to repair the old turnpike would be in order and a good deal nearer the point than to talk about building more roads. One wagon came to grief, Sunday, below Charles B. NichOls's. A short distance below this, there are a number of danger ous places, some of them with road way but 12 feet in width, with an en- bankment almost perpendicular of the same height on one side.
 George Buritt has sold his horse to Jerome Platt.
 It is doubtful now when the turnpike will again be a tirstclass road. The se- lectmen seem to differ in their opinions as to it's needs. One says that he shall get the road repairers and the other says 1 that he shall stop the men from working. On Wednesday evening, 30th, Decora- tion day, there will be a Memorial con cert in the Methodist church. The music will consist chiefly of songs, duets and choruses fitting for the occasion. Many of the old war songs and memorial hymns are deeply rooted in the memories of the survivors of the late war, also ill the hearts of living friends, saddened through life by the loss of dear ones in the struggle for the grand old Union. Joseph Hammond of Bridgeport, one of the veterans, will take a prominent place in the concert; other singers, including a quartet from Bridgeport, besides help from other sources, will insure a musical treat, worthy of patronage. Admission fee 15c; also a supper at the close of the concert for 10c. If stormy, the concert will be on Thursday evening.
