liberty we came home to "the Rose of New England" to spend Easter.
 will write about the beautiful sun sets we had all that week before Easter.
 Loving all the little wild flowers that grow, and all nature, we climbed to the top of Lanman's Hill, about the highest point in the city, every evening, just to see the sun set. E is impossible to describe the grandeur or beauty. I don't think any artist could ever catch those beautiful tints, to reproduce just as the sun sinks slowly down behind the hills of the Rose of New England

Potatoes.

Last summer 1 planted some pota- toes and they grew well. 1 watered them once a week, and took good care of them so as to have them in good condition.
 I weeded them every time there were any weeds among them. They grew and grew every day until it was time to dig them.
 I started in the afternoon to dig them, and I got such big potatoes! In deed, I never expected them to be so big:
 This year I will plant more than last year. T wished last year I had planted more.
 After all, I ate them, and that's the end of them.

The Potato.

Some potatoes are round and some are long, The potatoes vary in size. The skin of the potatoes are thin and brown.
 There are two kinds of potatees- the Irish potato and the sweet potato. The potatoes were found in America. before the white people came. The Indians used to dig the potatoes and throw them in the fire until they were baked.
 When the white men found the po- tatoes they were very much pleased and took some over to England and Spain, and so the potatoes spread all over the world.
 This week is potato week. We must eat all the potatoes we can.
 Last year I planted some potatoes and they grew very good.
 I am going to plant some more this year. I like potatoes and could eat them twice a day.

The orphans' Friend,

Not many years ago young woman named Margaret was employed as servant in hotel. She could neither read nor write, and her work. that of washing and ironing, was of the hard est kind. She was very pious wom- an, always ready to help, by any means in her power, those who were poorer than herself.
 One day Margaret learned that the asylum building in care of the Sisters was not large enough for the number of orphan boys who had to be taken into it.
 She had not been able to save mua1- out of her small wages, but she hal a pair of strong arms, a generous heart and a clear head. So giving up her work in the hotel, she went to the Sisters and offered to help them to get a larger house. The Sisters were glad to accept her offer, and Margaret started in at once to work. Her first step was to buy two COWS and begin a milk business. She looked carefully after everything, served the milk her self, and her customers became her friends.
 Every cent she could spare went to the asylum. Besides, she found time to collect cold victuals at the hotels anu make LneiH ofRr lllto good dlSneS for the orphans. She never tired tend ing to these little ones.
 Margaret's charity was rewarded even in this world, for her business grew larger and larger every day. Af- ter time she sold it for a good price and with the money opened bakery.
 Though her bread was sold at a low price to the asylums, and thousands of loaveS were given to the poor, her business was successful from the start. In time it became the. largest of its kind in the city.
 Everyone had a pleasant word for Margaret, and as she, went about her work she never forgot to ask help for the poor.
 At her death the whole city mourn ed. On every side her praise was

 But words were not enough for the people of the city Within two years from her death g monument arose to keep alive the memory of this noble woman who had labored so long and lovingly for Gods poor. It faces the new asylum that was built mainly by her efforts. There she sits, carved in marble, one arm around little child, and below, on the base is cut her name Margaret.
 Theer are many monuments in our land to heroes, statesmen and soldiers, but none is more deserving of a place than the one to this humble woman The Orphans Friend.

The Victory of Baseball
By P. w. Wilson
Correspondent of The London Daily Neavs

TT READ that Mr. Newton D. Baker has
A decided that profess onal baseball is
~ not to be regarded as an essential in
dustry under the recent order promulgated
by Major General Crowder. Many Ameri-
cans will consider that this is severe ver-
dict, and they right. In your country,
as in Britain, to give up sports is very
nearly the supreme sacrifice. Sport is
pleasure, while work Is duty, and pleasure
dies hard.
In Great Britain We have two national
games, cricket in summer and football in
winter the football being either Rugby
Association. In the Rugby game the ball
may be handled, and is oval in shape. In
Association the ball is spherical and must
not be touched, except with the toe or the
head. The hand and forearm must not be
used. The games are thus quite distinct,
and all three of them maintain elaborate
leagues, including amateurs as we'll as pro-
fessionals, with clubs, trainers, grounds for
playing, grandstands for spectators and an
army of expert newspaper men. In general
terms one may say that the most of this
has been stopped, though in nutrition areas
some football keeps men happy. The lun-
dreds of thousands who paid at the gate to
watch the games are enlisted with the play
ers themselves.
