The man who does not 90 to church
or help to pay the expenses Of a church
is reapiug a harvest without sowing. He
is living on what others have done and
his contemporaries are doing. and is not
paying his share for what he is permit
ted to enjoy. Greater security of life
and property, greater regard for the
rights of others, greater charities and
higher civilization come from the church.
The HERALD regrets that it was mis-
informed as to the special rates offered
by the Grand Trunk for the Maine
Music festival at Portland which occurs
next week Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day. The rate from Island Pond leay-
ing Friday and returning Saturday is
$50, round trip and the ticket includes
one general admission to any one rer-
Torrance of festival, or if desired by
holder. will he accepted as 30 cents in
part payment for reserved seat tickets.
Round trip tickets going October 3, /,
and &, and return limit October 5, are
$3.50. Our authority for the rate quo
ted last week was an agent of the Fes-
tival Co. and we naturally supposed it
to be correct.
