good judges of singing hastened to
raise blisters on his palms in an eff

PRIMITIVE DWELLINGS.

PRIMITIVE DWELLINGS.
There are several little old log cabins
in different parts of town. They are
carefully preserved by their owners. now
old men and women, who, mindful OF
THE priyations of that long gone time,
when a log cabin meant as much to
them as a nice modern house does to
their children today; are careful that
no harm comes to these cradles of pio-
neer days: such sentiment is worthy OF
deep thought, and had such been OBJ
served elsewhere in the west members
OF the present generations would feel
Just pride in their home towns.
The church of the Latter-day Saints
is a substantial building, composed OF
stone; it occupies a. pleasant site on
Main street, Just about in the center
of town, making the distance conveni-
ent for all; but then 1t seems n greater
distance is no lindrance, for the writer
saw several rigs that came in 10 and
Is miles, and their occupants looked
wholesome and we'll dressed. especially
the ladies' We're in as fine gowns and
wore the Very latest inverted waste pa
per basket hats, as their more metro
politan sisters wear during like SER
vices
AS the saints do not call their people
to church by the ringing of bells Or
quiet of the Sabbath, it becomes nee.
essary to familiarize oneself with the
hours Of worship; this / did the day
before.
FAST SUNDAY.
Shortly after 3 p. M, Fast Sunday,
went to church; Immediately within
the inner doors stood a small oblong
table. Seated on either side was a
Young lady: one was busiy writing
butors, while the other took care of
the cash. But be it known these con-
tributions given Fast Sundays are en-
tirely voluntary; the bookkeeping is
only another instance of the methodical
lives of these people: by this means
an accurate account, and not guess
work, maintain in all branches and
ramiications of this great organization.
The money subscribed on Fast Sun
days is set aside for a specific purpose,
the taking care of all dependents With
in the ward. The religious tendencies
of the unfortunateS are not questioned.
the mere fact they are in need is sutti-
cient to bring them under the influence
of this fund. BY this foresight many
q needy person is kept out of the aims
house. and remains amid the scenes OF
better times, removing somewhat the
bitter pangs incident to dependency.
Very short prayers. brief testimonials,
ing. glorious singing, was the order of
benediction.
