The late charivari accidental shoot

glow with patriotism at sight of sold

heart thrill as noble young men and
women are arrayed against the awful
destruction of souls. Subdued SOcia-
bility was huShed, and expectation
ran high as eight fine looking young
people and one little miss, marched up
the aisle to Mrs. Archer's organ &C
compartment. Unabated interest
held sway as number after number
voiced invocation, entreaty, weakness
remorSe, warning, sOliloquy, rescue
work and other stern realities OF every
day life. Mrs. Archer's and Cecil'S
solos were rare treats; and the latterS
bright imperSonatiOn Of that awful

cellent help of Misses Frazee and
MesSrs RalSton will long remain an
agreeable memory of Christian infu

received with reluctance. While Mel
lie Hester received the medal, each
worker deserves honorable mention,
especially beginners. 1t requires brav-
cry to so acceptably fill such places
of usefulness and influence for good.
Untold good has been done, and a
beautiful spirit Of brotherly love has
been shown on each occasion. The
community will ever hold Mr.. Archer'S
family, the western friends and Mr..
MatteSon in high esteem for coming
so far over bad roads to accept their
share Of duty, with no thought OF re-
Enumeration, save as 1t comes from
Him who "loveth a cheerful giver."
What an ineStimable privilege to give
of "such as we have" Thanks are
