Village Meeting March 9.

Warnings have been posted calling
attention to the annual village meeting
at Seaver's opera house at z so p. m,
Tuesday, March 9. There seem to be
no special matters to come up at this
meeting outside the regular business,
except perhaps. article II, which
reads. 'To see if the village will vote
to buy one-half interest in the power
privilege Of Echo pond, Seymour lake
and outlet of Echo pond, and if so to
raise money to pay for the same." 1t
is said that these water rights would
make our present holdings at Plunkett
much more valuable than at present,
on account of being able to store a
large amount of surplus water during
any dry seasons, or to increase the flow
through storage in case the village
should ever want more power. The
resignation of j. V. Rowen as trustee
makes two trustees to be elected this
meeting instead of one. one of these
men to serve two years. The village
reports are out, and show that the
village has had very prosperous year.
The Indebtedness for the water system
is now entirely wiped out and there is
about 5000 surplus IN the treasury, now
from the water system From now on
the water system will be a source of
revenue to the village and if placed in
a sinking fund or kept entirely separ-
ate from other village accounts the
water system will now more than care
for any emergency likely to arise
The electric light department has
decreased it's Indebtedness about S4500,
and would seem to be entering upon &
period not only of self support but of a
dividend paying basis, and in a few
years at its present rate will find the
Indebtedness entirely liquidated. The

showing ought to be pleasing to every
taxpayer and voter in the village.

BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB WORK

A boys and girls garden club has
been started in the community for the
young people between the ages of five
and eighteen inclusive. This club has
been formed in response to an ever
increasing need for interesting children
in agricultural and home industries in
order that they may realize the oppor-
tunit ties offered them in our own rural
community. The organization of this
club will be very simple, it's object
being only to stimulate the interest of
the children in home affairs. Meet
ings will be held during the summer
from time to time, at which local
authorities on different home indus
tries will tell their experiences,
demonstrations will be given, and an
opportunity will be given to discuss the
problems that are bound to arise in our
first ventures in this work. There are
people already promised to inspect the
gardens and to offer suggestions and
encouragement. In the fall an exhibit
is to be held at which priz es will be
offered in groups according to ages of
competitor Prizes will be given for
the following lines of work: Vegeta-
BILE and flower gardening, improvement
of door yards, special crops, farm ami
mails, maple products, forestry. butter
and cheese, sewing. cooking, canning,
carpentry and pets. The children of
our rural schools are leaders in this
work, having last year begun to raise
crops with this club in mind. The
interest and CO. operation of the parents
and the community in general is neces-
sary to the success and your help is
solicited.

Methodist Episcopal Church Notes

Rev. I. A. Ranney preached an
excellent sermon Sunday morning on,
''The Religion of Backbone" taking
for text Dan. 6 3, "Then this Daniel
was preferred above the presidents and
princes, because an excellent spirit
was in him; and the king thought to
set him over the whole realm. 1"
Determination: In religion as much
as IN anything else. Daniels spirit
was to do right'at any hazard. He had
learned to say no. A large part of
the religion Of backbone is sheer reso
luton to play the man. A good way
to determine right from wrong is to
ask yourself the day after what you
wish you had done. Devotion: Daniel
had a life of devotion with God. Many
pray only when in trouble Direction
Every thing in life depends on direction.

In the evening the sermon was on
"Stones Rolled Away. Text found in
Mark 1913. We were warned not tc
turn aside because of imaginary
obstacles. Never mind the obstacles
but trust in God and go ahead. One

way have been rolled away by the
