HAIRY EST SONG.
Laugh out, laugh out, We orchard lands,
With all your ripened store
SUCH bounteous measure nature yields;
What could heart ask for more:
With carths broad lap abrim with food
Inc azure skies above,
The heavens whisper, earth is good",
Earth answers, "Heaven is love"
The winds that wander from the West
DER fields afar or near
Find plenty nowhere manifest
In richer stores than here.
The golden rick, the bursting bin,
or rlCh and ripeued grain
Bespeak the wealth which all may win
In industry'5 domain.
The corn fields set in grand array
OF solid rank and row
Are streams of wealth which set this WAy,
And soon shall overflow.
Laugh out, laugh out, ye ripencd fields,
With FREDERICKSBURG mirth.
The Joy your bOunteous measure Yields
Shall bless the whole round earth

Our Puritan ancestors denounced as su-
perstitious, unwarranted by Scripture, any
observance of Christmas. At the present
time, however, there are few among US
who dispute the propriety of observing
the anniversary of Christ's birth, by social
and religious services, at home or at places
of worship.
The birth of Jesus Christ, the Saviour
Of mankind, the mysterious link connect
ing the attributes of Deity with human
sympathies and affections-is the most
noteworthy and glorious event in the
worlds history, and the most worthy Of
being reyerently and joyously commem-
Grated by His followers, who aspire to
walk in His footsteps, and share in the
priceless benefits which His birth. life,
DEATH resurrection and example purchased
for our race.
Let Us therefore celebrate and enjoy
Christmas by trying to make it not only
the day when we give and receive gifts,
but the most joyous day in all the year.

NE niknr !.

Mr.. Editor.
am exceedingly anxious to hear from
the clergymen of different denominations,
as am Informed that they Will each preach
sermon concerning their church Creeds,
or different beliefs as some would term it.
persons belief or opinion amounts to
nothing comparatively unless it cores
ponds with the teachings of the Bible.
What some educated man may say does
not establish the truth, unless 1t is thor
oughy grounded upon the teachings of
our Lord Jesus Christ | will take for my
choice the creed which is the most cOntin-
ed to the new testament and its teachings,
not what some learned man may say.
There is too much of such religion afloat
in the world to-day | have studied the
new testament carefully and fail to find
any denomination whose creed is so deep
ly grounded upon the teachings of our
Lord Jesus Christ as the Baptist and for
this reason and none other | am in sympa-
thy with it, The Free Baptist and
Baptist are all one to me, their creeds are
almost exactly alike. The Baptists are Of
ten called hard-sheled and why? Simply
because they do not believe in anything
and everything, and they believe in one
baptism and that by immersion, while
other denominations say little water ap-
piled in any form will do. How many
times was Christ baptized, He was bap-
tized in the river Jordan by John the Bap-
tist and on coming up out of the water
the spirit of God descended upon him in
the form of a dove, saying: This Is my
beloved Son in whom am well pleased"
The new testament does not mention but
one baptism and that the one already re-
ferred TO. II water in any form would do
1t would represent, or at least lead US to
think, that Christ must have been baptized
a number of times aud in number of diff
ferent forms
There is certain class who claim that
baptism is not essential, that 1t is only
church form and amounts To nothing
What ild Christ tell Nicodemu>: He told
him that he must be born again; then He
told him that he must be born of water
and of the spirit. Paul. the apostle says
in the sixth chapter Of Romans that there
fore We are buried with him Ivy baptism in

from the dead by the glory of the Father

On Christmas night the 25th. there will be
a Christmas tree at Riverside Hall. Sup
per will be served to raise funds for the
purchase of Gospel Hymns No 6, for
use in the chapel in this village.
The evening of Dec. 9th was the occa-
sion of double wedding at the Sedgwick
parsonage. The names of the parties
were Mr.. Victor C. Bridges and Miss Celia
f. Eaton, both of Brooklin Me, and Mr..
Clarence +. Hutchins of Sedgwick and
Miss Lena r. Henderson of South Blue
hill, Me. We wish them many years of
happiness and prosperity.
We understand that Capt, Daniel Low
and family have moved into their new
home at Sargentville, recently purchased
of Capt. VIM. ID. Cover, now of Newton,
Mass.
Dec 9th was the first Sunday of the
sixth year of the present pa>torate. Five
years of toll have passed during which there
have been many changes. Sorrows and
sunshine have been intermingled. The
church has lost nearly fifty of its mem
bers; but has gained iifty-three. The
church editice has been improved by the
addition of a ppe-organ, new furnace,
new lights, clock, carpet, etc. Meanwhile
chapel has been erected in the village,
costing $3.50, also chapel has been built
at Sargentville costing nearly $1,000. Other
enterprises outside the church have called
for large outlays of capital: the Sar-
gentville steamboat-w being built at
an expense of S250O, Sedgwick wharf
costing about $500 New houses hav c
been erected including several summer
cottages.
Recently Rev. G. W. Hinckley, State
Sunday School Secretary, and founder of
