Besides our black boards, the new
clock was on the wall, dictionary on

each room, all looked like it was
meant to do something. The electric
bells are at hand and will be in place
by another week, we understand.
The new desks are shipped so we are
informed and are expected, and We
hope every thing will be in its place
by the close of this month at latest

That the churches in any com
munity exercise most potent infiu
ence for good, is conceded by all ex-
ccpt the most rabfd or blatant infidel
whose egotism and sclf-conceit blinds
bis mind the inestimable value OF
Christianity But to what extent are
the churches valuable in this COM
muuity? The Galilean teacher said
of His disciples: "Ye are the light Of
the world. I'VE are the salt Of
the earth. Hence, if all His disciples
are the light of the world and the
salt of the earth, the logical as well
as the scriptural conclusion is that
they are the light of the community
in which they i've. These declara-
tons. however, do not preclude the
possibility of the light going out
being hid under bushel--or the salt
losing its sadness. But certainly no
reasonable or fair minded persons
would accuse the churches of being
wholly composed Of united bands of
hypocrites. For it matters not to
what extent in its many forms, may
pervade the ranks Of any church, you
will find within It's membership,
consecrated men and women, And
it should be borne in mind that it on
ly requires few of the above men
toned class to become the light of
community.

These are the days when the dis
contented farmers fancy lightly turns
to moving. The great railway sys-
TENS of the West, food the mail:
with manuals setting forth the beau
ties and virtues of this and that re-
gion, each claiming to be par excel
lence the home seekers paradise
Agriculture has in this aspect taken
the place of mining In former times
the new country that offered the
most attractions to settlers from u
distance, was that in which gold was
taken out of the ground in big yell
low nuggets or inhnitessimal dust; in
these latter days the search is still
for quick fortune, but the medium
exploited is the growing crop, which
can be turned into gold-or green
backs-by the slower processes of
planting, cultivating and harvesting;
and the pioneer now has for his en-
blems the gang pillow and the reaping
machine, instead of the pick and pan,
Now the advertising circulars TEEN
with prints in which the settlers
comfortable homesteads and happy
family are shown, projected against
fields of heavy-headed grain, trees
grooming under apples and peaches
prpportionally as large as watermel-
ons, and the cattle of a thousand
hills grouped in o pen by the side of
the railroad awaiting rapid ship
ment to markets where buyers stand
in line, longing for the chance to
draw fat checks in payment, While
these pictures attrack the eye, few if
any, have ever bettered their con-
dition by leaving our own fair coun-
try, and the few who have left would
only be too GLAD to be back,
