of that region, going there from
Connections and locating near the
old fort. He was son, and the
last survivor of family of ten chill

Elizabeth Witter Killam. His was
an active and successful life. He
was largely engaged in numbering
and farming, man of the strietest
probity, of sound Judgment and IN
all respects most excellent citizen
He was an enthusiastic hunter and
probably the most successful in this
whole region. Unbroken forests
stretched away near his home and
one of the delights of his life was to
roam their confines in search OF
large game. He was the very soul
of hospitality ana entertained with
lavish hand and bounteous cheer.
His name was a household word

day is Friday, the sth, and will
close with the Oratorio of the Holy

of Mr. Eaton, one of the members OF
this conference who has built up the
churches he has served by means of

that this will be one of the best

Tabor There are certainly many
features that are advertised that
will appeal to the deeper spiritua

The sale of cream, cake and candy

Next Sunday is the anniversary
Of the PASTORS first visit to Milford
Memory, therefore, naturally opens
her contents and they are passed |
over i'm review Many most happy |
recollections as well as now and |
then a sad one comes TO mind. One
year ago the former we'll beloved |
pastor, Rev Thomas Nichols, WIS
the incumbent Of the pulpit. The
memory of his acquaintance will
always be a most pleasant one to
the writer and while it is with
sadness that we recall his failing
health and sad decease still we
should also be glad for a godly man
has gone to his reward and his
works do follow him. The pastor is
plensed again as he remembers how
patient and forbearing and helpful
his people have been during the
past year The most delightful
relations that have been enjoyed
are the only ones that present
themselves on me nory's tablet and
therefore we conclude that there
are no others. It has been source
of much pleasure to have received a
call to this pulpit and it is with the
most sincere prayer that the sacred
relation later established may be of
great benefit and profit to all con-
oerned. The repairs and the new
organ have made quite a difference
in the interior appearance OF the
church for all of which many ready
hands, fertile brains, and loyal
hearts come in for a share of praise
We only regret as welook backward
that more has not been accomplished
Have we all let our light so shine
that God has been glorified to the
extent that we can say of us, 'yo
have done what ye could?" But the
present is here the future is before
us. Let us provoke one another to
good works and then trust God
knowing that Paul may plant
and Apollos may water, but after all
it is God that gives the increase.
The services on next Lords day
at the usual time, 10 80 and z 80, to
which all "strangers within our
gates" have a most cordial invita-
tion. The themes will be such as
will stimulate to greater Christian
activity and to encourage those who
wish to live more nobly and truly
in accord with Jesus Christ and his
teachings.
In the absence of Miss Blanche
Cross, the regular organist, and
since Miss Katie Beck, the assistant
organist, cannot be with us, we are
happy to announce that MIR. Yeo.
mans of the Yale school Of forestry
will preside at the organ Sunday
Mr.. Yeomans is not a novice and
it will afford us great pleasure tt
have him with us next Sunday.
The missionary society postpone
their meeting one week. The regu.
lar time of meeting would be next
Friday, the first Friday in the
month, but as we are TO have a re.
turned missionary address the
meeting we have decided to hold il
IA little later and thereby seek &c
have a larger attendance The field
that will be discussed is Persia.
Mrs. Tribins, who is stopping at the
Bluff House and who spent nearly
seven years IN this field, will speak
to us. Let all the ladies of the
church come. It will be a very
rare treat, as the speaker has made
many addresses and will be sure tC
please.

Next Tuesday evening there will
be a musicale at the church to fur

other year. Good music costs, yet
it pays TO procure the best. since it
is one of the elements that enters
into cha 'acter building, and charac.
ter cannot be measured by the dollar
standard. tits our conviction that
altogether too little attention is paid
to church music in the majority Of
churches, Music that no one in
heaven or earth can understand will
do little in our Judgment to add to
the worshIpfuluess of any service.
Simplicity aud yet character should
characterize church music.

BOYISH PBANKS

Occasionally symptoms develop in
some bright chap to have a lot of
fun by either evading the payment
of toll on the Milford bridge or else
by driving over it faster than a
walk. These are real cute ooncep-
tions, though not very original, and
the perpetrators must chuokle at
themselves for being extremely COM
ical fellows 1t is a cunning thing
to do and just the kind of smartness
which some day leads a chap to go
for his pocketbook and plank down
some of his fathers hard earned
dollars to get out of a scrape, or if
the old gentleman or the fellow s
mother have not been very gener.
Gus, or if he has spent his pile in
the hilarity producing soda then
perhaps he may play checkers
awhile with his nose, but all the
same he has had his fun and been
smart, and he can after take the
other fellows out in the barn and
enjoy telling his experience and
also whisper the soft tale to his best
girl and she will all the more, if she
is real sensible, admire his bril-
liancv.
