REUNION PLEASED HIM.

th~ss*sft'f 80 ~ fetst ac@Cs
Mr.. Chas. M. Meacham. President,
"Ferrell's Boys, Hopkissville,
Kentucky.
My Dear Mr.. Meacham:
have been intending to drop you
line ever since | returned to my
native heath, to tell you as best |
could how much enjoyed my visit
to Hopkinsville, and meeting so
many Of my schooIma'es q won't
say "old." for | don't like the world
and friends, but | have been rather
upset since my return on account
Of death 10 my family.
However, since things are shaping
themselves into their normal condi-
ton, and | have about caught up
with my work, cannot refrain from
getting out of my system" a part
Of the exuberant sensations that l
caught while back in dear old Hop
kinsville. 1t would be impossible to
enumerate the many kindnesses that
were extended to me or to name all
of the former friends that met and
had such pleasant chats with. Suf-
flee it to say that the Hopkinsville
people are the same whole-hearted,
cordial and hospitable people that
they were when l was in school, and
if anything they are like one of your
famous products-mellowed with the
few intervening years. 1t made my
heart glad to meet some of the
girls" and boys" that l use to as
sociate with while there in school,
and especially was | delighted to re-
ceive from one girl, now happily
married to a most excellent man, an
invitation to take tea with them,
which | greedily. accepted and en-
joyed most heartily. Other friends
we're kind enough to invite me to
their homes to dine also, and | lik; =
wise accepted and had a delightful
time.
| was not only impressed with the
genuine hospitality of my former
friends and schoolmates, but also
with the air of commercial and in
dustrial stability that seemed to be
so much in evidence. had the pleas.
ure of going out to see the Carlos
brothers on the Cadiz pike, and was
struck with the fine agricultural Sec
ton that was passed in going there.
Likewise the fine farm that the Car
losses have. They have over fif y
head of cattle, among them a lot OF
fine Jersey cows. immense fields OF
hay and grain. and almost every
other product that is raised on an
up-to-date farm. | was somewhat
like the Bostonian who had lived in
Boston all his life and had never
been to Bunker Hill. l lived in
Hopkinsville several years and had
never before been to the Carloss
farm, or to any other farm of any
size, and | was amazed at it. Hop
kinsville is situated in the midst of a
very rich agricultural section, and it
should grow a great deal. Howev-
er, it has improved wonderfully
since | was there on my last visit,
fourteen years ago. and if it i'm
proves as much in the next fourteen,
Pm afraid you all will be trying to
move the capital there. Who was it
said Hitch your wagon to a starr"
If the boys that were absent this
year could only know what they
missed by not attending. they would
be inviting someone to give them a
good swift kick. | met one of the

NORWICH TOWN
Missionary Society May Form Home League-EIection of Ever Ready Cir cle-WiIiis White Returns from Panama,

During the first part Of the hour at the meeting Wednesday afternoon of the Lathrop Memorial society the forming a home league was consider ed. Such 3. league would be desirable as it is often impossible for those who live at Q distance to come to the mis- sionary meetings. which are always held In the First Congregational chapel. Such a league would be allied with the present organization as re- Sards contributions and interest in missions. The matter is left over for decision at the next regular meeting.
 The subject of the lesson for study was The Child at School, and the in terest centered about the question: Which grade of the school has the greatest bearing upon the real devel- opment of the child? The consensus of opinion was the primary grade. or its equivalent. in home training, or in the best form of Kindergarten. The necessity of Christian mission schools among the non Christian peoples was also considered. The discussions were enthusiastic at times, almost amount ing to argument on both sides of the question.
