Of the little ones. To keep healthy
little stomachs in the nursery never
serve hot stewed fruit to the children.
Plenty Of stewed fruit and baked ap-
pies they should eat, but they must
invariably be cooked the day before
and dished up cold. The nursery pc.
tatoes should always be baked or
boiled in their Jackets. Stewed and

that the skin gives out during the

Benefit Of tha University. This money
Is at the disposition Of the trustees
and they can use it as they think
best. 1t is an open secret that the
school of theology urgently needs a
special building for their use and it
is possible that some of this money
may go to this end. The school has
very bright prospects for the future
and such a building will no doubt
come before long. Everybody is de-
lighted with the evidences of success
which are shown on every hand. The
work of the school has been thorough
and complete and the grounds have
been greatly improved during the
past year. There is now no question
but that the final success of the
school is assured and they are doing
better and greater work each year,
and all look forward to a future bright
with hope and possibilities.
