We Bristolians ought to feel
ashamed of ourselves. Here we are
whining about the cold whilst they are
freezing to death in Nebraska and Da-
kota; have to tunnel through snow to

all directions. Let us try to be thank

Elder Thayer had large audience
on Sunday, and told the folks about
Joseph, who was a disciple of Jesus,
but secretly, because Of the Jews. We
have no Jews round here, and I do not
think we have any secret disciples. A
disciple is pupil, and all here are

two young folks in it tip over in a snow
bank. Ike remarked that there was
