R. H. LAKE IN WASHINGTON.

Thinking it may interest old friends of Mrs Jackson Lake to hear of her in their new home near Seattle, Wash., l am giving The Bee extracts from a letter recently received from her.
 My Dear Friend: think it is quite time to answer your letter received in January, which has not been forgotten but had an attack of grip Christmas time and my eyes have troubled me since. l think everyone East or West have had colds or grip this winter. In this district they have what is. called spinal meningitis. The doctors fee here for one visit is from S5 to Sl0. It is no colder here than in Southern Oregon, but after Septebmer 20, we have after sunset heavy fog so dense one must carry a lantern unless bright moon- light night. The people are mostly English, and from New York state; some from the middle west. You in- quired about Clarence's work. He has service and Sunday school here every Sunday morning, at Kenningdale every Sunday afternoon. He takes the car after dinner for Renton, seven miles away, then walks to Kenningdale, about three and one half miles from Renton; then back to Renton for even- ing service. He also goes there for early communion the first Sunday in every month. Benton is coal mining city, has pretty little church but no rectory. The bids for a new rectory here. are about ready. It will cost at least $25OO. They will begin work the middle of this month, unless it rains too much. While we are very comfortable and like it here, l some times get homesick to see my dear old friends and the old town is pretty nice after all. Remember me to my friends. Sincerely your friend, TIL K. Lake.

FROM WALTER DALEY
WHO IS A TRUE OPTIMIST.
Paterson. N. J.. March 18th, l9

Paterson, N. J., March 18th, 1908.
 Editor Smith, Newtown Bee.
 Dear Sir: It seems that there must be a break up in the winter and that we are going to have an early spring as l have found one of your Bees in Sloatsburg, Rockland County, N. r., on March IS, and then again met the same Bee in Paterson, N. J., at noon on Thursday, the 18th, and as the sun is shining bright and warm he may be found in several other places before this goes to press if the weather keeps warm.
 Now what l want to impress on the peoples mind is this: That there is a good deal of what we read in the pa- pers that is exaggerated. And still l will admit. that two-third of it is true as far as labor is concerned. To deal with the financial condition of this country and its causes, and the strin- gency of money at present would be prepoSterOus for me to undertake. But l certainly will say that things are not as bad as they are represented to be. Your correspondent interviewed some of the leading manufacturers in New York and Paterson, N. J., and from all l can learn from them there is going to be big revival in business and it is all ready started. One factory l was in had two weeks ago 75 men at work and last evening ths number on pay roll was 353 and they expect, this one firm told me. that orders were to con- tinue coming in as they have for the past few days, they would have to in- crease their force of men by next Monday morning to 1000. l find the same information in several other es- tabiShments. As one manager of a big concern in Paterson informed me, that if the business men in the East I had more confidence in one another and meddled less in politics. that business would be booming long before now and there would not be so many idle men Fin the Eastern states as there are at present. He hopes to see by April. l every man that is willing to work at work on a fair raise of wages.
 mention the above facts to show that some of the people will growl about hard times any way and at any season of the year. While there is cer- tainly cause at present for good many to grumble at the condition of things this winter, still it does not help matters to improve by having a poor word. The only remedy l see now is to Try and be cheerful in all our distress. And bear our poor luck like man. If we can't have our way as to feeding
 or dress,
 We must still do the best that we can. think 1 had better bring this letter to close, before l get it into prose. In my next I will try and inform my readers of The Bee how the farmer of Connecticut can be benefited by organ ization.-[W. Daley

The boys have been recommending to the popular and genial selectman of Middle district the purchase of strengthening plasters, for the memory in this instance. It appears that MT Peck went up street to attend the Brew trial, driving one of his horses and hitching it under the church shed. He remained through the trial and went down to Mir Morris store, where he met Neighbor Prindle. The latter in- vited Mir Peck to ride home with him, which he did. When he arrived in his own yard, Mir Peck's hired man asked him where the milk cans were, and then it flashed upon him that his horse was up street. Mir Prindle carried him back up street, where he found the horse safe and sound. The joke got 'rounC a bit and MT Peck was kept busy at the telephone, Saturday evening.

What good sluice will do for road is shown on Queen street. Last fall selectman Peck put in large sluice across the road near the watering trough opposite the Otis place. As. a result the water along Queen street had chance to work off, and Queen street, usually impossible in the spring time, has been in fair condition all the time. It would be money well expended if the selectmen would expend $500 a year in reopening clogged sluiceways and in building new ones where needed.

The vessel went aground about
