Red Brick City
CBy Louise Heilgers.)

" HERE are many red brick cities.
Every little or big suburb round

have little, stiff trees growing in them
and often the family washing blowing
over them. Dou-houses, which are not
inhabited. alas. by don-people, but
rather by haggard-faced men ana
women, and prematurely-wise chloreni

A Soldiers PRAYER

At this time many war "reminiscences
are recalled. Veteran Isaac P. Simkins
has shown us a letter he wrote from
Camp Robertson, Va, April 5, 1868, TO a
friend in Penn's Grove. He states that
on that date six inches of snow fell, also
"We have the praise of being the
c%leanest and best looking men and have
the best looking encampment in the
whole army and we have got the name
OF being a fighting regiment"
As Co. K. Gath Regiment came from
Upper Penn's Neck, undoubtedly the
girl friends at home thought the same.
Their sons and daughters will be pleased
to learn that their fathers made hand
some soldiers and were fighters. Some
proved that after their return. At the
close OF the letter he wrote a soldiers
prayer which was as follows:
'.Our father who art in Washington,
uncle Abe. Honored by thy name.
Thy victory be won, thy Will be done in
the South as at the North. Give us this
day our daily rations of crackers and
pork, and forgive us our short comings
as we forgive our Quarter Master. Lead
us not into battle and thine be the power
to the soldiers and negroes for the space
OF nine months. Amen"

to the Massachusetts Institute of Tech.

ity selected, which must be in the vicin,
ity of Boston.
In making his gift Mr.. dupont stipu-
lates that ample provisions be made for
carrying on the educational develop
ment plans. This condition has been
fulfilled, it is felt, by the State grant of
81, 1000, 600, to be supplied within the
next 10 years from the treasury OF the
Commonwealth. Mr.. dupont was grad
uated from the Institute of Technology
in 1884, and is a life member of the insti-
