the hard severe winter weather with
now and then a pleasant time or &
sleigh ride, then we enjoy in large
measure the maple sugar time. Their
spring with all the work OF getting
the ground ready for The planting and
the many fences to repair, and the
of watching the grair
grow, the trees leave out and the
glorious sunshine days Of June, and
Iyour garden, be it large or small, and
every promise of bountiful crop OF
things you enjoy eating, and the time
Of the month gets to the 18th, and it
is cold and you wish for an overcoar
on and the thermometer goes down
to as or there about and you cover
Ilup your precious garden or what YOU
can of it; you burn an oil heater all
night in your potato patcn and you
get up early and build small bon fires
nearby to keep away Jack Frost, or
take the water pot and sprinkle to
kill old Jacks work. The sun comes
up and a nice June day dawns and
you feel so thankful that the old
fellow did not do much hurt and you
will go to church on Sunday morning
with glorious feeling you have with
/ in. Would you after all this change
this life for the one to come until you
hidden? Not any. We choose to hang
on for a while longer and feel thank
full for all of the trials and blessings
THAT come.

teresting and the children did their
parts nicely. Miss Helen Webster of

credit is due Mrs. J. Ranlage for the
