with an ambition to be somebody and
qualified to realize their ambition. In
this respective know of none superior
to the Vermont Methodist Seminary
at Montpelier. This school has re-
markably successful body of alumni,
and is now doing some Of it's best
work. 1t has five Literary Courses
extending over four years or more,
besides courses in Music, Art and Bus
mess. Last year it registered 535 stu
dents, an increase of 1913. There is
every prospect of another increase
this year.
Mr.. Fred M. Kimball, wife, mother
and children are at Chas. Percival's
camp, Silver Cove, on the lake. They
will remain until Sept. LIST and expect
to be joined by other friends. On
Tuesday evening the Barton Band ac-
cepted an invitation from Mr.. Perez
val to participate in moonlight boat
ride. After very pleasant sail the
party was landed at Silver Cove, where
a most enjoyable concert was given.
The appreciation manifested at their
selections by the twenty boat loads of
people who were afloat was most
hearty and frequent. A considerable
number of young ladies and gentle
men chaperoned by Mrs. Currier en-
joyed the music and singing from Mr..
Kimballs veranda and the party
broke up at a late hour, after a final
delightful moonlight circuit of the
lake. 1t is quite evident that the
boom in lake camping is we'll begun,
and it is probable that a large number
of people will avail themselves of the
delightful opportunities for enjoy
ment and recuperation of health
which are found on the shores of the
beautiful Bell Water.

In AIEMoRIAM- It IS with hearts
bowed down with grief that we review
the recent depletion of our numbers
by death.
First, Brother Edward E. Rowell,
resident of Albany, and one of its
most useful and honOred citizens,
"Whom none named but to praise.'
On account of his living at a dis
lance, his face was not so familiar at
our gatherings as we could wish, but
still it gave us great satisfaction to
know that one Of our members was
leading such noble, unselfsh, Chris
tian life. The whole community
mourned with the bereaved relatives,
and us, his early death.
And now, as we turn to our more
recent affection, in the removal by
death of Sister Finette A. Pearson,
we are constrained to believe "Death
loves a shining mark" Her pleas
ant face and helping hand, though oft
by physical pain, will be
greatly missed in our circle, land in the
other organizations to which she be-
longed, as we'll as in the community
at large, in all of which she was much
and general favorite.
1t was with unutterable sorrow that
we mingled our tears with the bereav-
ed husband and children as we laid
her to rest in yOnder hillside Gene
terry.
May the blessed hope of an immor-
tai reunion comfort and console
all who mourn the loss of these loved
ones, and stimulate to higher, nobler
living the remaining members of ORR
emit Chapter, No. 13, Order Of Eastern
Star.
