Bethel.
STILL ALIVE.

The people of Bethel being full of enthusiasm, taste and good things. are manifesting it very strongly by
 their works. The Center School, un- der the janitorship of Matthias Fitz- patrick, speaks in strong terms ofiits vast improvements, both outwardly and within. His great love for cleanliness and beauty prompted him to come in touch with individu- ality, especially the School Board and teachers, likewise the children, some 300 in number This gentle and impressive touch vibrated from mouth to ear till general and good feeling agitated the environments of all who were ready to assist in some way to put into the most gorgeous embellishments the lawns of the school building. The setting of trees, the planting of flowers, the skill displayed in arranging the grass plots, the excellence of it's walks and it's beautiful flag-pole, waving the flag of our Union. The janitor feels proud of the improve ments, and takes the best of care that everything shall grow, and so add beauty to beauty until the time when some one will say its perfect ly grand" Even the little children feel pleased as they wend their way up the nice walks in the morning and inhale the rich fragrance of the dewy flowers as they throw out a variety of odors. They charm the eye as well, and thus fascination has widening to them in a botanical line. I believe in making everything instructive and interesting to chil- dren, for they never travel the same age but once. Thanking those who took part ir this good cause, we will say, Hurrah for three cheers.-[Fs E. Sturges, Bethel.

The logical inference, then is that organization being
demanded and regarded necessity for the successful

Liberals of individual trend, dozen perhaps, have written

Beyond this action has been taken 1t is evident there
FORE with the existing demand for closer and stronger
compact of Liberal effort the demand is for leader who
will take the initiative and work to bring these forces to-
