were greatly surprised for they had
seen the big rock which was laid on
the door of the tomb lying on the
ground and Jesus was not in the
tomb. AS they were looking down
they heard "A voice and at this they
were much frightened, but lifting
their heads they saw an angel who
said. Christ the Lord has risen"
Then they went 20 the disciples
and told them Christ had risen, but
they did not believe this until they
saw Him face 10 face as we shall
see Him some day in heaven. face

BELGRADE LAKES

Belgrade Lakes. July s.-(SpeciaD.-
Motor boating and fishing gave the
summer residents here plenty of thrills
this week. On the Fourth a race was
staged between the two fastest power
boats on the lake, and it is expected
that racing will take a prominent part
in the activities of the colonists this
season.
A new boat, owned by Henry L.
Marsh of Rochester. N. Y. raced the
"EHB" owned by f. H. Barnes OF
New York, winning easily over the six
mile course round Hoyt's Island on
Great lake. Between % and % miles
per hour were the maximum speeds
attained by the boats, which approx
mates the records for these waters
Mr.. Marsh's boat consumed Is gallons
of gasoline during the race.
The fishing has been good with the
large number of trout captured the
exceptional feature. L. w. Gordon OF
New York, stopping at the Davenport
cottage. has captured 10 trout during
his three weeks stay here. White
perch are being caught in sufficient
quantity to supply the tables of the
various hotels. and the bass are bit
ing well enough to furnish good sport
for those who delight in the captur-
ing of the fish more than the eating
