as the land this side OF the river.

In fact We were told by a gentle
man who is dealing in land or that

the audience. The fate Of the instru-
ment is sealed" he said, land it's de-
struction is only a matter of time"
Mr.. Nice then preached an excellent
sermon from the third chapter of NAL
achi, verse II. And they shall be
mine, saith the Lord of hosts, in that
day when l make up my Jewels" He
said great credit is due the congrega-
a debt that has been as a nightmare to
them for nearly a quarter of a century
In the list of the givers of the 1915
necessary to take up and cancel this
mortgage appeared the names of all
member of the church but ten-not
one man had given all nor any great
amount Of the sum total. There were
perhaps ten names on the list whose
owners are not members of the con-
congregation. This fund had been
freely given as to the Lord. There
had been no fairs, no church suppers,
but one or two recitals by a popular
pianist and one social at the home Of
the wife Of the pastor.
Mr.. Nice recited the fact that for
several months he had had in his pos
session a check to be used as the last
$50 Of the debt, and that it had been
applied for that purpose. This check
came from Hon. Henry w. Peabody ..
Salem, Mass, a brother of the late Dea-
con Peabody Of Laramie. He was not a
member of the congregation, but out
of the goodness Of his heart, and his
love of good works, he had done that
much for the memory Of his brother.
The preacher complimented the PEG
pie Of the church upon the success OF
their efforts to extinguish this debt,
and said that they had responded to his
appeals with the true spirit. OF the
ten who were not on the list some could
not be seen and others had refused for
the reason that they had nothing to
give, and none from a selfish motive.
The money was raised as a thank-of
fering to the Lord and the givers were
precious in his sight.
Following the sermon the right hand
of fellowship Of the church was extend
ed to three female applicants for mem
bership, after which the Sacrament OF
the Lords Supper was administered
by Deacons W. H. Frazee and G. A
Hertxog. These will be admitted by
baptism later.

My nearest neighbor was a German;

the margin of the water and drink
with apparent enjoyment. The har-
Dor at this spot being almost land
locked, and the water as smooth as
glass and without the faintest ripple,
the birds were enabled to drink with
out wetting their plumage. My neigh
Dor, who had lived many years in
New Britain, told me that this drink
ing of sea water was common to both
cockatoos and pigeons alike, and that
on some occasions the beaches would
be lined with them; the cockatoos not
only drinking but bathing and appar-
emily enjoying themselves greatly.
