Ar the State Sunday School Con-
vention, just closed at Fulton, Au-
drain county was awarded the
"White Star" banner for having
the largest Sunday School attend
ance, in proportion to number OF
children, efany county in the State.
This certainly speaks well for the
religious training Audrain pa
rents are giving their children.
The Sunday School is a great insti-
tuition of late years and is growing
In favor rapidly everywhere that
the Christian religion il known. 1t
has not been . great while ago that
the Sabbath School was locked up
on with much degree OF favor by the
Church as a religious educator, but
this dogma has been discarded by
all denominations, and the Sunday
School, at this day, in church work
is one ofthe greatest factors tending
to the advancement of Christianity
hswn in this age.

JOHN Brown, of Kansas, former
ly of Galloway county, this State,
is in Mexico for the purpose of
starting a creamery if he meets with
proper encouragement. A good in
stitution of this kind is what Au-
drain county needs, and creamery
oaf the right sort will pay both the
milk producer and the protector OF
the enterprise. Mr.. Brown says
Wellsville has taken the proper
steps to secure one, and that farm
~in that section are much elated
over the prospect of a market for
their milk. A creamery is good
thing for any community as a busi-
ness investment.

happened to be the witness of an odd
scene the other day which, when reeounted.
may possibly amuse the reader. One of
those not infrequent, but | must confess
usually fictitious, necessities had arisen
which take me to a stable-on this occasion
to large establishment in the vicinity of
Chardon street. II was about O'Clock in
the afternoon, and various people were start
ing for home, ameng them man and woman
who had remarkably intelligent looking
gray horse. Just as he began to trot down
the lane by which the stable is reached from
the street, a stout party" who, | noticed,
had been watching the gray very intently,
suddenly cried out in loud voice; "Dans
don't you want piece of cake:
The horse stopped short pricked up his
ears, looked around and uttered faint
whinny of recognition and assent; nor would
he 60 on until the stout man came forward
and explained his interference. 1t appeared
that several years before he had brought the
horse from Vermont. where he owned him
for some time, and as the beast was particd-
larry docile he had taught him the true sense
of the question. the sudden asking of which
brought the animal to a standstill. 1t is well
known that horses never forget person or
place, and scarcely an event. No matter
how much time has elapsed or how greatly
the horse may have changed in disposition,
one word from former friend will establish
Immediately the old relation between them.
