The winter train schedule of the Bos.
ton & Maine railroad is not very pop-
ular with the patrons here. The ''air
line' from the south does not stop at
Wells River and passengers arriving
from the Wells River road either have
to foot it to Woodsville or wait for the
mail, and passengers from the south
arriving at Wells River cannot change
and take the' air line," but must wait
and come through on the mail. This
inconvenience is not all nor the worst
for by this arrangement our evening
Boston mail does not arrive until the
mail, where previously it has arrived
an hour earlier on the lair line
The nine o'clock evening train was
not continued from Lyndonville to
Newport, as largely signed Pc
tition asked the road to Go. Withal
thesarrangement-is noravery.popular.
The funeral of William Rook, who
was killed at the granite sheds Tues
day, was held at 2 o'clock Thursday at
the Congregational church. Rev. w.
A. Warner offciated and spoke in
sympathizing way to the friends of
| the deceased. Fourteen members of
the camp of M w. of A. at Concord,
the former home of Mr.. Rook, attend
ed in body as we'll as the Barton
camp. The floral tribute with the eX-
ception of the pieces given by the or
ders was flowers grown and tended by
those who made them into beautiful
pieces and bouquets, the sincerest
manifestation by friends and neigh
bors of the sympathy all felt for the
sorrowing family. The burial was in
the Welcome o. Brown cemetery.
Card-We the undersigned, take
this method of extending our sincere
thanks to our friends for their aid and
expression of sympathy extended US
in our shocking bereavement of son
and brother. Our recent coming into
your midst as strangers makes this
expression all the more appreciated.

Those who missed hearing some one
of the fine sermons delivered at our
churches Sunday were losers indeed.
At the M. E. church Mr. Dukeshire
J preached an earnest sermon on man s
power ith Gods help to save mer
and the great responsibility of it. Fol
ofertory Slayton Lang and Miss Jer
ONE played most acceptably a duet
arranged for the clarinet and pipe
: organ. In the evening the pastor con
!, tinued his talks on Christ's out-of -dool
sermons. His subject was "Deep-se;
Fishing" and his theme Launch ou
: into the Deep" Next Sunday even
: ing the subject will be "A Day Off.

| will preach in the Methodist church il
e exchange with the pastor next Sun

Mr.. Warner completed his series O
8 sermons on Jonah at the Congrega
8 tional church in the morning. Thes
f sermons have taken up the book o
o Jonah, step by step, comparing tn
t prophets problems and his way Q
9 meeting his responsibilities with thos
d in the lives Of the average man of tc
/. day. At the seven O'Clock service tn
q lectures on "Cromwell" and his time
were continued, the subject for tn
