The chon rendered laudable service
and the congregation assisted in sing
ing the old familiar hymns with great
devotion. The church was well furn-
| iShed with flowers and ferns so, that
none failed to catch the great signifi-
of the Resurrection note. Everything
breathed the heavenly note of
Christ's Victory over the powers of
darkness. ON the financial or tens
poral side things were evident. Never
aid st. Peters people devote as large
an offering as Easter Day. And the
Church school goes on record as Civ
en- more through the Mite Boxes this
Easter than ever. The amount is
seven times over that of last year,
and the largest ever given. There are
still quite number of Mite Boxes
to be returned so that the total
amount will be surprising. 1t is a
pleasure to make an important
announcement at this time. st. Peters
will soon be made parish. On the
spiritual and TEMPORAL sides of the
Missions life the past three year, st.
Peters has fulfilled the constitutional
and canonical requirements to be-
come a Parish. A memorial is being
prepared to be sent to Bishop Hall
requesting him to present the matter
to the next Diocesan Convention
which meets at Rutland in May. Re-
Gently the pastors salary has been
increased. The mission is entirely out
of debt as the Woman's Axilary of
St. Peters has completed payment on
the installation of heating unit for
the parish house and a new furnace
for the church. An organ fund will
be started at once and the woman's
auxiliary will be requested to assume
charge of the raising of the organ
fund. Three fourths of our temporal
success at st. Peters is due to this
noble sacrificing organization of de-
voted women. The Childrens Lenten
Mission this year was we'll attended
and we look forward confidently to
next years Mission.
About As people attended the sugar
party at Edwin Hough's, on Bemis
Hill, Monday afternoon, in spite of
the bad rain storm. A good many
more planned to attend, but were
kept back by the rain and bad travel
inc. All who went were amply re-
paid by the good time they enjoyed.
Owing to a misunderstanding, the
report was current that the sugar
party was to have a small admission
charge, but this was wholly mistake.

South street, near the Creamery
Garage, is one deep and unfathomable
sea of mud. and the principal
diversion of the residents on that
street the past week, has been
watching the cars stuck in this big

scheme for the village to keep a man
on hand 10 pull out the cars, and
charge enough to materially reduce
the village tax.
