DAN GOODMAN GETS A
NOTE FROM MEMBERS
OE KIT CARSON CLUE
(5econd Day Of the "Stuck- up")
Dear Dan:

Dear Dan:
The members Of tho Kit Carson
Club cordially invite you TO go with
them on their hike 10 Roaring Rapids
next Saturday-tomo-row that is.
Bring along your grub and be pre-
pared to make a day Of II.
Il viii be over to your house at
four this afternoon and will give you
more details as to time we will start,
etc. Yours truly. Tom Butterworth,
Secretary, Kit Carson Club"
When Dan Goodman opened tho
Goodman n mail box Friday morning and
found this note therein. he was sur
pt1sed. He read 1t once. Then again.
Dan Becomes Suspicious
Kit Carson Club? Why--that was
the club he mad heard Ned Fox
and Bin Benson talk so much about
Again Dan read the note. He
thought minute. Then his suspicious
were aroused
Dan was very studious looking for a
young man his age He wore huge,
tOrtoise-she1 rim glasses They made
him look owlish- He was thin
checked. quite long and none too
fleshy. But he had q good, honest
faee-one that showed him to be INTEL
ligeut and fond Of lots of fun and ez-
citement, though a bit sensitive
His Reason for 5eing Shy
But, having been SO very studious
ever since he was a small boy, he
had been made the butt Of many a
mean joke. Other small boys didn't
seem 10 take to studious person.
And it was these jokes that made Dan
shy at making new acquaintances.
Thus, when he read the note for
the third time the question that pop
| ped into his head was: What kind OF
a joke is this?"
lie showed the note to his mother.
The evening before while Dan had
been down 10 the grocer's, Mrs. Good
| man had received two callers, Nike
and Sam They had told her they
wanted Dan to accompany the Kit
| Carsons on the hike Saturday and
asked her If she wouldn't persuade him
to do so.
Mother Urges Dan to Go
"Of course you're going Dam" she
said, finished reading the note. "Tl
get some things TO eat tonight so
you'll be all ready 10 start early"
OIL don't know whether IN 60
or not" drawled DAN I'D planned
somethig else for tomorrow
But they were kind enough to ask
you. Dan"
Dan hemmed and hawed few min
utes. He thought hard Then,
IAN right, III go. guess.
So, when Tom Rutterworth cam(
round that afternoon, Dan was ready
for his instructions.

Il calendar-have you?"
Haven't @ regular calendar. but I
know how to find out the day without
one. Dad once told me how and I've
never forgotten.
There's an old sentence that
sounds like it originated in England,
and II goes like this: AT Dover dwelt
George Brown. Esquire, good Chris
topher Finch. and David Frier,' There
are twelve words in that sentence. you
see.

NOW, then, this is July, isn't It.
July Is the seventh month" Holding
up one hand and counting on his fin
gers, Rog repeated the first seven
words OF the sentence. He stopped
with good"
Good begins with a G, and G Is
the seventh letter OF the alphabet I'll
have to know, now, the day on which
January began this year-remember

Harry thought hard.

and he held up his hand again. "Satur-
day, one, Sunday, two. Monday. three,
Tuesday, four, Wednesday, five, Thurs

Rog's tone sounded as though he was
so sure he was correct, Harry was
surprised.
Pretty good, Rog." praised Harry.

WORK OF TODAY
Rev. H. Mink of Stanstead
Interesting Speaker at NJ.
E. Church Roll Call

The annual Roll call and supper
which took place at the Methodist
Episcopal church Thursday evening
was largely attended and much en-
ioycd. William Lawson, president OF
the board Of stewards presided most
ably at the meeting. Rev. H. Mick
pastor of the Methodist church a,
Stanstead was the guest OF honor
and speaker of the evening.
Nj. Mick said that he had read our
authors, and admired our statesmen
but this was the first time he had
been privileged TO speak on American
soil. Nj. Mick seemed 70 be a great
admirer of both Roosevelt and Lin
coin, whom he quoted at same length.
His theme for the address which he
gave in most pleasing and convinc-
ing manner, was Christian Loyalty,
Loyalty to God and TO his Church.
Nj Mick spoke of the laXity of
the church members of the present
day, in then observance Of the com
mandments Of God and Of his Church,
"Thc commandments are a dead let
ter" said Nh Mick, "to many Christ
ians. Thou shalt have no other Gods
but me, the people worship Gods OF
gold and silver and wool and store
and lay up abnormal treasures"
If we would have a vital church
we must have a powerful pulpit.
MI Mick deploled the lack OF re-
cruits for the ministry and quoted
statistics to show that at the present
rate, the Methodist ministry in Can
ada would be eliminated in twenty
years.
The roll was called by l. O. Drew,
the members responding in different
ways +. /. Richards expressed the
appreciation OF the company Of the
successful efforts OF Rev. H. T.
Coontz.
Mrs. Drown in her response to the
roll call gave very clever imper
sonation OF the Chronicles of the tribe
OF Methodists in the country called
Newport.
Preceding the business OF the
evening, bountiful supper was ser
we'd at Gao, under the auspices of
the Ladies' Aid. The menu Of cold
