Character is always and finally the
supreme power in human affairs. What
is character? 1t is the stamp of truth,
power and proportion made by the
hand Of God upon mortal clay. Christ
alone was the perfect character, stamp
or image of that God who is not only
perfection but omnipotence.-SOutherE

A gang of men were put at work a
week ago in the watershed above Min
ards pond cutting trees. 1t cannot fail
to have still greater influence in reduc-
ing the water supply, and for this reason
is to be deplored, 1t Is q lot at the south
east corner of the pond near the new
dam, between that and the Griswold
lot. The location is above the pond and
In 1t is swampy land with springs
from which water runs into the pond
There is but little timber large enough
for saw-logs, but it is being cut mostly
for hrewood by the estate of the late
James B. Morgan, the workmen being
instructed to cut everything, large and
small. 1t seems short-sighted policy
upon the part of the village to let the
water supply be thus damaged as il
would seem to be worth much more to
protect the water supply than can pos
sibly be realized from the sales of wood
in that locality.
