Walking down High street on a
recent afternoon, and on reaching

ed with small bits of paper. Not
too small to be seen, but too small

of time. II was an unsightly sight.
Let US hope it was carelessly done,
and that next time, the party so dis
posed to offend the public eye will
stop and think. and not do it.
Some folks always late for church,
and on last Wednesday evening we

would at least start in time. And
no one ever yet had good excuse
for entering church late. There
may be some excuse for the young
girl with her first Easter bonnet,
but none for others.
