How good is mans life the men living
How fit to employ
All the heart and the soul and the senses
For ever in joyi'
One could never have been more inn
pressed with this feeling than now;-the
frequent rains have kept the earth green
and smiling and the trees will hardly bear
their rich burdens Of fruit. The Peach
Festival on last Saturday evening bore
evidence, also. not only to the generosity
Of natures gifts but to the prosperity and
well-being Of those who came there to en-
joy. There was the usual array of beauty
and gallantry peaches were in abundance,
and many other good things to eat, and the
Epworth League have added nice little
sum TO their exchequer.
