LOCAL APPLICATION
OF FAMILIAR TEXT
Rev. F. A. Poole Uses Barre Granite
As a Center About Which to
Weave Forceful Sermon.

AT the morning service Of the C0ngrega.
tional church yesterday local applica-
tion was made of the text Freely Ye
Have Received, Freely Give by the pas.
tor, Rev. +. A. Poole, who brought out a
sermon which was particularly forceful.
The "hill Of granite, from which Barre s
prosperity springs, and on which its fu-
ture largely depends, was the center about
which an interesting sermon was woven.
The speaker believed that IN proportion
to what Barre chad received it is not giving
enough in return. This hill of granite IS
the foundation, without which Barre
would have been nothing more than a
mere hamlet Paradoxical as it seems the
foundation in this case is 1000 feet above
the superstructure. Without this Barre
would not now be thriving city.
This hill Of granite was here long be-
fore the first settlers appeared. Ii was
here when the Indians r0amed the hills OF
Vermont. It was here through no agency
Of man. II was given 70 us practically
free. For It we are indebted to God, or If
You wish, 10 nature. And not merely are
the owners Of the quarries benefited by
the gift, but all OF us are benefited. By
means Of it the manufacturing firms have
been able to get a degree Of profit, and by
the same, the workmen have been able to
get better wage. Except for this hill Of
granite, where now would be our Central
Labor Union our manufacturers assocIa-
tion, our banks, our schools, our lawyers,
our physicians, our preachers
The speaker referred TO the fact that
throughout the state Barre was per haps
referred to with a feeling Of repugnance
and Ia sort of apOlogetic way. But those
people must have an impaired vision No
other city or town in the state has better
prospects. Other towns have had their
day. Their sun is setting. But here in
Barre there are great possibilities -possi-
billties for good and possibilities for evil.
And it rests with the people Of the city to
decide between the two.
Rev. Mr.. Poole then spoke Of two agen-
ces, education and the church OF the
former, he declared, 1t was needless to
speak, as excellent progress is being made
in that line to the betterment of the city
He believed. however, that the churches
are not doing so much as they might to
this end. Then referring to the Congre-
ational society be said that there is much
more that this church should do and can
do
In conclusion he said that yourselves,
our homes, our business and our prosper
ity' are traeeable to this hill Of granite
which was gained through no effort Of our
own. Then, freely as We have received,
Why should We not as freely give9

glass leave it for few minutes and

priced newspapers are best for window
cleaning, as they are not so stiff as the
more expensive papers, and the use Of
them will not only save the wear and

better polish than the ordinary method

UTILIZING ROSE LEAVES.
bow to Prepare Delicious FIavors
and sirups with Them.

From time immemOrial the oricntals
have utilized roses for their choicest
sweets and confections and for their
perfumes and ilavJrs, says the Wash
ington Star. Our -grandmothe
were adopts in the preparation of rose
flavOrs and potpourlis but the modern
woman has been slow in awakening to
their possibilities.
For rose sirup collect fresh petals
each morning and spread on Il tray to
dry. When enough have been collected
for a tumbler of preserve put in a fresh
granite or porcelain kettle with Just
enough water to cover and simmer I'M
til tender. Add sugar in the proportion
of a pound Ia each pint of the leaves
and water and cook to Il rich strip.
The Turkish women frequently use hon
ey in place of sugar. one-half pound of
the honey equaling pound of sugar.
This sirup gives a delicious flavor to
a pudding sauce or mincemeat, or it
may be utilized as a sweet at Turkish
tea. Pour in glasses and seal.
To secure rose havoring fill wide
mouthcd bottle with fresh petals. pack
Ing them down as tight as possible;
then pour over them enough pure alco-
hol to submerge.
The petals of the yellow rose infused
in boiling water furnish a delicate dye.
which is attractive with old fashioned
rose desserts and for homemade candy.
To make candicd rose leaves gather
fresh leaves and spread them on an in
verted sio&e or oiled paper in the open
air until slightly dry, but not crisp.
Make strip. using n half pint of wa
ter and half pound of graduated sug

each rose leaf in this strip. using hat
pin or fine wire; then lay back in place
After several hours melt half cupful
of fondant. add two or three drops of
essence of rose. a drop of cochineal to
color and n few drops of water to thin
Dip the leaves in this one by one. spin
