the school arose, sung the long meter doxology,. and recited in concert the. benediction. Then the teacher said; Good after noon, my pupils" to which came the kindly response, Good af ternoon, teacher"
 The school was in full opera tion, ut:under great difficulties. They greatly needed maps and charts; they were also in great need of a sschool-house. At the time of my visit they were rent ing a dance hall for school room. Upon the return of the miners for the winter the hall had to be given up, and the : school was held in a dilapidated log house. I found their stock of books inventoried as follows: four small Bibles, four hymn books, three primers, thirteen first readers, and one wall chart. Mrs. Mcfarland was at once placed in charge of the school, with Clah as assistant, and Mrs. Dickinson, Christian Tongas Indian, as interpreter. Early in the history of her school Mrs. Mcfarland found difficulty in holding her girl pupils. Accord ing to the customs of their peo- pie. they were frequently hired or sold by their own mothers to white men and others for base purposes. And the brighter the girl the greater her danger; for as she improved in the school. she began to dress more neatly,
 comb her hair, and keep her per- son more cleanly; the dull, stolfd
 cast of countenance gave way to the light of intelligence, and she
 began to be more attractive, and

THE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE SITKH TRAINING SCHOOL
 l304-'35.

The following is copied from the report to the Bureau of Edu- cation:
 Sitka, Alaska, July 1. 1885
 Sir: I have the honor to send you the following annual report of the Indian Industrial Training School, Sitka, Alaska, for the year ending June 30, 1885:
 As this is the first report to your office from this school. a brief preliminary statement is in order.
 In the spring of 1876 nine Tsimpsian Indians came up the coast from Port Simpson, British Columbia, and took contract for cutting wood for the military post then at Fort Wrangel,
 At the close of their contract, in the fall, as they were about to return to Port Simpson, Clah, who had been the leader among those Indians, was persuaded to remain and open school. Such was the anxiety of the people to learn that his school was attended by sixty or seventy adults besides children. These people, "said a sailor, "are crazy to learn. Co., ing up the beach last night I overheard an Indian girl spelling words of one and two syllables. Upon looking into the house, l found that, unable to procure a school-book, she was learning from newspaper that she had picked up."
 Touched by the eagerness of this people to learn, a soldier at

HOW RICHMOND CAN
WIN A BIG PRIZE

The community selling the largest
number of Red Cross Christmas seals
between Christmas and January 1 will
stand a good chance of making the
largest per capita sale and OF winning
the grand prize offered by the State
Commission.
This announcement was made today
by the Indiana sales managers follow
ing the report from number of ag-
ents that they expected to give some
of the self confident cities run for
first place by pushing the sale next
week. Some cities have already sold
several seals per inhabitant, and had
intended to quit selling today, until
the announcement was made that ag-
ents in some communities intended to
continue the sale until January I.
Then they called their workers togeth-
er again and planned for the work
next week.
Other agents in Indiana have adopt
ed the slogan no unsold seals" and
expect to sell all seals on hand before
New Years day. According to an
agreement with the state headquar-

A Corner in Lilies.

ANY story by Mary f. wilkins Freeman
is bound to be good: for she is one of the
most popular authors of the present gen
Grafton That is one of the reasons why
the editors of our Sunday Magazine are
congratulating themselves that they Sc
cured her interest in our prize story COM
petition She has taken the somewhat
blunt title of A Corner in Lilies for
her theme but in working it out has
woven in a remarkable picture of New
England atmosphere and at the same
time made good on the development of
two love interests.
Amaryllis Bean was the name of the
heroine: as the author says, las to body,
dried and active as Il graSshopper; as TO
her face, anonymously rosy and young.
although with keen and at times shrewd-
Nv malicious eyes Amarylls was owner
of the lilies. and when a young member
of the plutocracy appeared with a strong
desire for them she was right on the
Job" financially speaking. 1t would take
a specially keen Wall street broker to
compete with her sagacious methods As
a prize competitor Mrs. Freeman is an
exceedingly promising candidate. Look
for it in our next Sunday Magazine.

Heritage of Generations.

In olden times the seigneur. lord of
the manor. was usually godfather 10 the
first born of the children of his tenants.
and to him, as to the parent, his god
children were accustomed to go on New
Year day We have it from NJ. de Gaspe
in his memoirs that on one occasion he
saw no less than leo children call on d
seigneur a the manor house.
Some of these old customs have now
passed away and others are less frequent
than formerly, but the filial affection and
respect for paternal authority which they
illustrate still remain as part of the
heritage handed down to the present gen.
GRAFTON by their forefathers.
The original tillers of the soil in lower
Canada. who first assumed the title of
''habitants. while holding their land
under feudal tenure. would not accept
any designation such as "censitare.
which carried with it some sense of the
servile status of the feudal vassal in old
France, but preferred to be called a
''habitant," or inhabitant of the country
a free man and not a vassal. And the
designation obtained official recognition
in France, and has become the charac-
teriStic name of the French-Canadian
people.
The attachment of the habitant to the
land is one of his most striking char
acteristics. In many instances farm lands
are still held in the name of the King of
France or his representatives. as in the
earlier days of the colony. and when sew
eral years ago, at the tricennial celebra-
ton. a committee on the old families of the
province was formed at Quebec over go of
such families claimed and received medals
and diplomas of honor. still owned the
family homesteads that had come into
possession of their ancestors from 2IO to
80 years ago, and had ever since re-
manned in the occupation Of the same
families.
