SOMERSET POMONA.
Special Meeting With Sandy River
Grange, Mercer.

A special meeting of the Pomona
was held with Sandy River Grange,
Mercer, Tuesday, May "a. Rain in the
early morning prevented an average
attendance, but a lively session was
on during the entire day with no lack
of the accustomed exercises of speak
ing, reading, recitation and song.
The Master, Oyerseer, Assistant
Steward, Chaplain, Secretary, Ppmo-
ma and Lady Assistant Steward, were
the officers present. Vacant chairs
were supplied by appointment.
w. G. Wade, Master of Sandy Riv-
er Grange, gave fraternal welcome
to the Pomona and F. e. Davis, Over
seer of the Pomona, responded to the
welcome.
The subject topics introduced for
discussion were What Constitutes
Success on the FARM" and What
do Farmers Need Most, More Land,
More Capital, More Help or More
Education?' The speakers in the or
der named were: S. F. Emerson, C.
r. Oliver, w. c. Hobart, G. E. Barnes,
F. E. Davies, Elmer Nichols, w. G.
Wade and c. H. Allen.
The main points brought out were
that success does not mean simply the
amount of property that can be accu-
INFLATED or bank account, but a
pleasant home and its surroundings
coupled, with sufficient recreation and
enjoyment that will make life on the
farm desirable instead of a burden,
as is too often the case.
Some of the speakers mentioned the
fact that farmers do not need more
land but the most of them could use
to advantage more capital and help
than they now command. So far as
education is concerned it needs to be
more practical and less speculative.
No fault is found with the education
of the schools provided the farmer
knows how to apply the same and
reap the benefits that may come from
a we'll cultivated mind. Actual eX-
perience is a greater and more valu-
able teacher than the schools alone
can give.
There were songs beautifully rem
dered by F. e. Hatch and Helen Cor
don; practical dialogue by class
of several young members of the
Grange and a recitation by Lizzie
Watson, who acted as Lecturer at
this session.
Eight members were instructed in
the Fifth degree and admitted into
the Pomona.
Next meeting with Victor Grange,
Fairfield, Tuesday, June IA.
L. L. Allen of Victor Grange will
welcome Pomona and Geo. Foster of
Canaan will respond. TOPICS: What
can the Grange do to improve exist
ing methods of Agriculture that we
may produce more and buy less?''
opened by II. 7. Choate and o. A.
Salley. End, which is the greater
factor in Agricultural success, the
farm or the farmer?' opened by E. H.
Tobey and Geo. Tibbetts. Bird, With
all modern privileges and convenient
ces, are people any happier today
than in the old days?" opened by S.
F. Emerson and Geo. Foster.

81 Don't Care"

Frequently we hear someone say II
don't care what people say about me" "
We don't believe anyone ever said this
truthfully and certainly If they did
there is something radically wrong
with them.
1t is natural to desire the good
opinion of the public and we all desire
it. Applause and praise always sound
good to us and criticism is always dis
agreeable, even when it comes from a
friend and we know it is done for our
benefit.
And 1t is good that people are thus
constituted for many person does
not yield to temptation and is deferred
from doing something that is wrong
because they know that the public
will condemn. While we should always
make up our minds as to right or wrong
of any act and be governed accordingly,
it would be frequently easier to con-
vince ourselves that it was alright to
do something If we did not fear the
puDllC WOulu COuutlllu dllu NllelleNtI
we hesitate to do something because
we fear the condemnation of the public
we will generally be right If we don't
do it.
When your conduct and your acts
are condemned by the public generally,
1t is almost certain that you have done
wrong for the public conscience is very
seldom wrong. Anyway don't say,
when people criticise and talk about
you unfavorably, II don't care what
people say" because it won't be So;
you can't help caring.
We are not in this article advocating
doing this or retaining from doing that
thing because the public will either
applaud or condemn. Do what you
think is right but remember that when
the public condemns it will be unusual
If you are right, and If the public con-
demns don't lie about not caring.
