"Of course" said Mr.. Mizzen, with a
querulous circumfiex accent, as he held
his paper out at arms length and
struck it with the back of his hand.
.'Of course!"

inquired his wife.
Things are going wrong again.

There is the sad coincidence. There
is a new illustration of the manner in

Anthon H. Lund, OF the council of
Apostles, and Jonathan c. Kimball o.
the council oil Seventies, were in at
tendance.
The Sunday school section OF the con
ference convened at 10 m. After the
usual opening exercises, Superintendent
Eldredge reported the Price school as

Elder +. NJ. Lyman explained that the
object of holding Sunday schools dur
ing ward and stake conferences was that
the children might see and hear the
visiting brethren, and not be driven in-
to the streets during the usual time for
holding Sunday schools. He explained
that the president Of the Stake should
preside at such meetings, but the
superintendent OF schools should con-
duct the services. He thought these
exercises should consist OF concert recl,
tation and singing, the Lords prayer,
the Ten Commandments and Articles oil
Faitn would be appropriate ST, ctions TO
recile.
Elder Anthem IL. Lund, Jonathan G.
Kimball and {. G.. Larsen, each gave
timely instructions on Sunday school
work.

gether, and as member of the Sunday
School Union board gave list OF in.
strucions prepared by the board.
At 2 p. m.--Ihe fast meeting session
OF the conference convened.
Elder Anthon IL. Lund was the first
speaker. He referred to the Vision OF
Lehl IN which he saw the tree OF lite"
iron ROD" etc; said the Bible, Book OF
Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and
the teachings OF the Prophets were the

should hold fast.
Elder Jonathan q. Kjmball said he

pride, How very strange It IS, that
while the Loru is showering the greatest
