UP TIE GREEK NEWS.

The grand opening of Clark Utt's
Rhorsburg Hotel went off in fine style
Wednesday night of last week. Blooms
burg, Benton and the surrounding
county were fully represented. All the
Benton landlords were there. Blooms
burg furnished the music, Rhorsburg
was gay for one night. Among the
county seat residents we noticed John
S. Williams, auctioneer; w. H. Henry,
Prothonotary; and Thornton Freeze,
candidate for Register and Recorder.
The county Sunday School Con-
vention held at Orangeville, was a
success. Thursday and Friday
Orangeville was full of people. 1t
was held IN the Presbyterian church.
On Thursday night it required two
churches to accommodate the throngs.
Speakers plenty and the addresses
good. The music was conducted by
the fine leader of the Methodist
church, Bloomsbury. Berwick was
we'll represented by Hiram Bower,
Rev. Smith, DR.. Michael and others.
We haven't the time or space TO men,
ton especially the speakers, but Mr..
Lowe of Lime Ridge put in some good
words, while others contributed large
ly to the affair in the way of work.
This Sunday School Convention bust
ness is grand affair in the way of
! christianity, in the way of taking hold
of the youth and planting their feet in
the right path. Napoleon said: "Give
me the youth of France, and l will
make great nation. So the churches
are getting the youth incorporated in
to the churches and that makes a
powerful Christian Nation. 1t is the
only hope and remedy against the
powers of darkness. The churches
seem to lead the world toward the
millennium.
