The small hat is here again. or rather
it continues to interest the miiliners

getting the material for book, but
did not approach me on the subject
of subscribing, nor did | mention the
matter to him as another member of
the family planned to subscribe, and

two other men surprised in the same

the old lightning rod game, but we
are at a loss to know just how the
trick was turned
We suggest that you be on the look
out for the man delivering these
books. There are doubtless some
people in your neighborhood who may
have intended to subscribe, but there
may be, as in this town, others who
have been victimized, though it may
be little difficult to prove it, A
notice in your local paper may per-

an affair of the salesman

stream of time in vision and saw these
things the terrible wars, and suffering
to come, the sorrow of it all took away
his strength and also took his breath

(Can Saton keep people alive that

An Appreciation

II was with sincere regret that the
community connected with the Union
Church at Sunderland babe goodbye
to Rev. and Mrs. Dumont Clarke on
Sept Goth, the last Sunday Mr.. Clarke
conducted services there.
When Rev. and Mrs. Clarke took up
the work in Sunderland in June ii was
the first time in the "a years since the
church was built that pastor had
been in charge, making regular SER
vice in the morning possible. Always
before, clergyman from an adjoining
town came in for a service in the
afternoon.
Rev. and Mrs. Clarke have been in
defatigable in their ministrations to
the community, making social calls,
visiting the sick and ministering to
their needs.
Beside the work of the regular SER
vice and Sunday school they planned
series of mid-week social meetings
that included a sociabIe, several illus
trated lectures that were both instruc-
tive and entertaining, a picnic,
working "bee" held in and about the
church whereby the inside Of the
church was cleaned and the outside
given coat of paint, and last but not
least an afternoon tea at Rev. and
Mrs. Clarke's house in Manchester
where the Sunderland friends enjoyed
a happy hour and carried away a
pleasant memory of their host and
hostess and their beautiful home.
With the regrets at their departure
were mingled many good wishes for a
pleasant and prosperous winter during
their sojourn at Lake Forest, Ill.
