One of the remarkable aspects in
physical accomplishments among
both men and women in our country
is a lack of knowledge Of swimming.
No such thing is a general knowledge
of this advantageous art is diffused
there is no public interest to
swimming, no private purpose of
encouraging people of all ages to
accom- plish themselves in it, and the
consequence is increased in horror
because so few people can swim.
There should, and could, be public
means afforded, at little expense,
wherever water facilities are pos
sessed, to enable boys and girls to
learn how to swim. Such education
involves power not only to save
their own lives in periods of danger
but during general peril possibly
to the lives of others, Public inter
est in this matter is equal every
where, as is private safety concern,
ed in it to high degrees. The draw
back is a lack Of public concern in
the matter. If that is once aroused
individuals will then become inter
ested. In our immediate vicinity we
have ample opportunities for learn
ing this art. Lake Mokoma Will

ST. Johns Church LaPorte.

Services were held in this church
on Sunday evening last by the Rev.
S. P. Kelly Diocesan Missionary,
participated in by a very large and
interested congregation, who listen
ed to sermon on the Trinity as
made known in the old doxology.
On Tuesday the Feast of the Trans
tiguration, morning services was
held with the celebration of the
Holy Communion and an address
appropriate to and explanatory of
this new Festival, which was unan-
mously adopted at the general Coun-
ell OF the church held in the City of
Chicago in 1886. The work of the
furnishing of this beautiful edifce is
almost completed, only a few things
remaining to be done. 1t has been
carpeted throughout with q superior
quality of body brussels carpet of q
light shade, IN perfect harmony with
the general tone of the building.
This covers the aisle, the space be-
hind the rear pews, the front between
the pews and the chancel and the
robing and choir rooms. These are

cry, entwined with gold thread and
caught on bolts with enameled heads,
and those on the robing room side
hang in folds, with cords pendant.
The chancel and sanctuary are finish
ed in native wood and are un-adorn-
ed, except with the turkish mat be-
fore the altar. The wood is grained
and stained. Tie Bishops chair is
of oak, upholstered in royal purple
and surmonteed with Mitre and
cross, the Priests chair being plain
and upholstered in the martyr hue.
The rail has an opening before the
altar, and there are Clergy seats and
stalls on either side. A modest
lectern stands on the gospel side.
The pulpit and credence yet remain
to be placed. All OF this complete
adornment represents a considerable
amount of hard labor and patient
continuance in, well doing. Mrs.
Chas. Wrede who selected the car
pets and hangings deserves more
than a newspaper notice for the
display of exquisite taste, and Mr..
II. II. Downs and family, Mr.. James
McFarlane, Mr.. Ellery p. Ingham.
Mr.. Stcrmont, have done a splendid
untiring work for the church, and
the town. The front has been
thoroughly graded, Mi. Kelly who
travels over the entire territory of
the Diocese and is familiar with
every county. in the State said
Yesterday that there was not a more
beautifully appointed and thoroughly
constructed church of its capacity,
in town of treble the population of
LaPort in this state, and we have
the courage to add, nor in any other
state. It is a credit to our town
and exceeds tie expectations of all
interested in it. The only delay in
the matter of the conservation of the
building is in securing a resident
Rector who can go on at once with
the church work As soon as the
time is decided upon, due notice
will be given in these columns.
