Well Brother L-.--You wanted
to know the general opinion of dane
ing and Sunday visiting and how
grand it is to think we do not have to
answer for another ones sins unless
we lead them astray. Then think their
bloodsis upon our hands. think when
we join any church we pledge ourselves
to go and help the cause along and
when we can go to church. Tol go
visiting just for pleasure it is marked
against us, but should've go for Char
itys' sake it is different. And as for
dancing, if the church and the world
cannot be told apart what good does
the church do? Although | do say
If you dar ce havesthe music, do not
make mock as some of the play
parties are a regular dance in dis
guise. Life is so short and there are
so many ways we can spend our time
profitably. There are evenings for
selectreadings, evenings for musical,
guessing contest, prize for draw
ing. The youths could enlarge their
brains and do them good it is our
opinion, though | am only one.

the eye out. The operation was a

case of that kind and the law should
be rigid even if it does appear light

March l9-We wer not surprised
when we hearo of little Johnny Eu-
banks death, but were surprised to
know that a child burned as badly as
he was could live. The parents and
friends and the aged grandmother have
our deepest sympathy. Man knoweth
not the day nor the hour that a sad
calamity may fall upon him. Deathfrom
a natural cause seems sad, yet when
we see our friends carried away by an
accident, it seems doubly sad and
words are so weak in this sad hour.
