YOU AND ME

(The following poem is dedicate to my dear sister, Mrs. Julia M. Ath ington, on her birthday, Aug. 18th 1910: Dear patient Sister Julia Behold your birthday morn, The valley and the woodland Its tranquil beams adorn. The bluebirds and the robins Are singing mild and free, Among the Ieafy branches c A song for you and me. The future is before us, The past in memory sleeps, But love around it's casket A tireless vigil keeps. And while again your birthday With eager joy I see The blessed bow of promise Still shines for you and me. It points our footsteps onward To wonder mansion bright, Where love abides forever And faith is lost in sight. And To, I hear an echo Beyond life's fitful sea, Where voices, kindred voices, Are calling you and me.
 From Sister,
 FANNY CROSBY.

OFFICIAL ATTENTION FOR STAGANT WATER
 OF NEWFIELD POND

Continued and well grounded com plaint from the residents of the vicin- ity of the New1eld park ball grounds has led the city officials to a con- ference with Superintendent Chapman of the Connecticut Co.,, towards abat- ing the nuisance arising from the stagnant pond bordering on Seaview avenue and skirting the ball grounds.
 Recently the board of health treat ed the pond with large quantity of oil, but this afforded only scant and temporary relief. The entire pond is coated with an unsightly mass of vegetable growth and the odor aris- ing especially on hot days when the tide is low is most unwelcome.
 One of the propositions is the com- plete filling in of the pond and an- other is the enlargement of the con- meeting drain through which the tide passes It is believed that if the small tunnel is made larger the pond will remain fresher. But the people of the vicinity are almost a unit in declaring for the filling in of the pond The board of health and alder manic committees have talked over the pond for number of years, but without any material relief for the adjacent residents.
