LITTLE q WILL"

Little Il will' was a very small
boy with the sweetest face any one
could wish to see, and under his
white blouse, with its big sailor col
lar, beat the sweetest little heart that
ever grew.
Of course 81 will'' had another
name. His really truly" name he
would have told you was Louis, but
those who knew him thought that
Il will suited him better.
Dear" mother would say, will
you run upstairs and get my scissors?
You will find them on the sewing
machine"
Il will, / WILL" would sing out the
pleasant little voice, and in a twink
ling the scissors would be put in
mothers hand
Or father would say: Louis, gather
up your toys; it is almost supper
time"
Il wilt" would come the smiling
answer.
Dear little 81 Wilt"
He is a big boy now-big enough
to study Latin and all sorts of hard
things, but the sunshine of his merry
baby ways has never faded from his
mothers heart.
What pity there is not little
Il will in every home.

RANGE coRNlcE AND ROOFING

1t takes many varieties of business
to make up the commercial part of a
large city. The greater the variety of

than the mere words. One of the bust
ness enterprises necessary in a city
is a modern cornice and roofing COM

CHURCH OF THE IMMACULATE
CONCEPTION.

The Italian Church of the Immacu-
late Conception of Hibbing, Mimi,
was built in May, 1906, and was
opened to the public the first Sun
day of October, the same year. The
church is located on Cedar street,
between Second and Third avenues,
in the central part OF the town. The
parish was organized by the Rev.
John Zarrilli, D. D., Phi. d., who ar
rived in Hibbing in October, 1905
He was assisted in the work by the
trustees, Antonio Passard, treasurer,
and Raphael Ersparmer, secretary,
and by committee of prominent Ital-
ians, chief among whom were H. An
tonelli, Joseph Flower and the late
P. Martinelli. The cost of the church
and parsonage was over $4,000. The
number of Italian families at that
time was about lis, but at the present
time they number 200.
When st. Peters Italian Church Of
Duluth was left vacant, Father Ear
rilli was transferred there in Janu-
airy, 1907, but he attended the Hibbing
church once a month until Father
Joseph Berwatto, from Iron Belt, Wis,
took charge of it in November, 1907.
He was there for about five years and
was succeeded by Father Joseph Pol
lax in October, 1912, who remained
until April, 1913, when Father Dante
Gil took charge. In March, 1915, the
Rev. Father Raphael Annecchiarico,
the present pastor, took charge of the
congregation Since the beginning OF
his pastorate practically all of the
church debt has been paid off with
the exception of small sum. In adj
dition to liquidating this indebtedness
Father Annecchiarico has just finished
having the church building and prop
erty remodeled and improved in many
ways. Principal among these i'm
provements being the painting of the
church inside and out and the install
lation of modern heating system,
which was badly needed. The total
cost of improvements amounted to
$4,000. Great credit is due the pastor
for his untiring effort in building up
his parish, both spiritually and physic-
ally The present trustees of the
church are Givacchino Ramoni, treas
urer, and Peter Anselmo, secretary

HOW LAURA WAS PUNISHED.

Once there was little girl whose
name was Laura. She was seven years
of age, and had kind parents, but was
not at all truthful One day she was
going along the street and a lady in
front of her dropped her pocketbook.
Laura saw it. She then looked around
and when no one was looking she
stopped down and picked it up.
Now the next day she was going to
the store for her mother and was
crossing the street and an automobile
struck her. She was taken home, and
the doctor said that she could not
