Mr.. Milton Reid, who is working at the

Climb up the ladder John and don't stop

March behaved beautifully in compar-
ison to her sister, April, who has been
more tickle than coy, young girl in her
teens. Mars might have been easily
mistaken for her patron star instead of
the much abused March. Gardens are
Gin statue quo" chickens Gaping, flow
ers dropping, people chilling, in conse-
quence of her unseemly behavior.
Prof. T. G. Arnold, of Washington City,
has been sentenced for four years and six
months for manslaughter. An appeal,
however, will be taken. Prof. Arnold
taught here some twelve or fifteen years
ago. He was highly educated and most
courtly, polished gentleman, brilliant in
conversation. Like other such men he
formed an unhappy alliance, which re-
suited in entire disaster to his domestic
happiness. He was for some time in
Texas, then he drifted to Washington
where his troubles have eliminated.
/ enjoyed the letter from Tobinsport,
Ind, immensely and am glad he OF she
gave the quotations from the Bible on
dancing. | won't have to hunt
them out Any amusement, dancing,
SNAP" "Ruth and Jacob" croquet, is
wrong when carried TO excess or INDUCED
in TO the neglect OF more serious or i'm
portant duties. A social, home dance by
our own circle, it seems TO me, isno more
a sia than church social where silly
games are played and worldly converse
ton carried on. But, "Be ii unto you
according to your faith" Let one be his
or her own judge. If we love God, keep
the commandments, observe the beauti-
full Beatitudes in Christ's sermons, love
our neighbors as ourselves, have charity
towards all, these matters sink into insig-
nifcance.
