gospel to the bereaved, and beside the
graves of their loved ones, strengthening
their faith in the resurrection of the body
and pointing with assurance to the i'm
mortal life beyond. 1t is not at all
strange that his people love him, and
strive to manifest that love in every pos

ago. Itwould be hard, indeed, to arouse
patriotism in the heart of man, when all
he had to fight for was a dreaTy, uubrOken
waste, but the ever changing scene Of
towering peaks, green-mantled in the
golden sun, and far-stretching, fertile
intervales, which has become so dear to
the heart of the stern old VarmOnter.
aroused him TO actions which have given
him q place in history. Amid such
surroundings haS our order been reared.
There was "a time when there was no
earth, when vast regions of space were
wrapped in darkness aud silence reigned.
Floating around, subject to no law but
that of motion, was an impalpable dust.
Moulded qy divine workmen, it assumed
shape, waxed fertile and became a thing
of beauty. On the highest peaks of the
North, covered with the eternal SHOWS,
and in the lowest depths of the sea, is
still found the same star-dust. Thus on
the heights of our cold, calculative
thoughts and in the depths of our
strongest emotion, there exists the same
spirit with which God the world began,
and which is the moving spirit of our
order: Glove for our fellow man." 1t
takes me back to my boyhOOd, far across
the water. On high, rocky cliff, year
after year, as the winters SHOWS melted
away, there bloomed single white
flower. 1t apparently grew from the
solid rock, and nobody knew whence
its nourishment Finally one day tiny
stream burst forth, trickled down the
side of the rock, and the secret was ur-
folded. 1t grew larger and larger, and
as it flowed down and fertilized the
valley below, people were thankful for
its grateful power Thus it is with our
order, the white flower of its foundation
principles bloomed on the rocky cliff
until suddenly it burst forth upon the
world, and the world became better for
it. On and on it will go, until the whole
world shall feel its influence. Again let
me bid you welcome, and add the heart
felt wish that the coming year will bring
us prosperity, such as we have never

We understand that Charles Hinsdill,
who has been in New York as clerk in a
store this winter, has been revolving the
matter in his mind as 10 the advantages
of a city life, as compared to living in a
comfortable country home. Not that he
desires to live a life of inactivity, but
spending fifteen or more hours day be-
hind the counter. with only hurried
time for lunch, he thinks poor ex-
change for the opportunities he had in a
pleasant Vermont farm house, where
there is not only plenty of work but time
for the enjoyment of home life, and the
obtaining OF needed information. We
can say, we think there is wisdom in the
consideration, and that he will be heart
lily welcomed to his old home.
