Our Farms.

There is no reason in this 10Th century
nearly as comfortable and convenient as
houses in the city and many of the boys
and girls kept at home, instead of going
to the city, if our farmers would stop fol-
lowing in the footsteps of their ancestors
and letting the old place go to ruin. The
children should have all the encourage
ment and help that their parents are able
to give them in keeping up the home,
both inside and out. With majority of
the material at hand, it costs but little to
repair the front fence and give it a coat
of paint, keep the trees trimmed, put the
lawn in good order and keep it moved,
which takes but little time once a week.
Keep the house and outbuildings in good
order, which, in most cases, can be done
with a coat of paint. Mother and daugh-
tiers should see 10 the inside of the house.
A little ornament or bric-a-brac here and
there will add much to the beauty of the
rooms and can be had at little or no act
ual expense. Many conveniences could
be had on the farm at a small expense,
which would save much hard work and
make the work lighter and more cheerful.
1t is no wonder that the boys and girls
will not stay on the farm with their par
ents, but, in nine cases out of ten, the
fault lies with the parents. They will
not make the old place attractive and
cheerful, but allow it to run down, thus
driving the children to the cities where
the life and excitement soon divert their
thoughts from the old home and they
never wish to return.-[ A. S. NJ.

OF Trinity:
Trinity church was built in lS49 and is II per-
feet gem OF Gothic architecture. The parish
has never been strong save in the zeal of its
members and numbers about 30 communicates
and an average attendance of AZ. The ex-
pense of the repairs, addition and thorough
repainting, etc, amounts to about 1913, all of
which has been raised by the united efforts OF
every one in the parish, which is free from
debt. While the work shows the popularity
and increasing labors of the rector, Rev C. w.
Boylston, the credit for all belongs to each
and every one. Without exception, aims have
been offered zealously and freely. Even little
children, without express invitation have
with joyful faces brought in well-filled mite
chests the results of hard earnings on Satur-
days and after school. All has been done in
| His name and He has been pleased with the
| work. The additions consist of IL chancel on
| the east end of the church, with Il vestry room
on the south and library the north. The
plans were drawn and furnished by NJ. l..
Pritchard, architect and are in perfect CON
! formity to the stvle of the church. There is
