 l am. surprised sometimes at the kind- ness shown by people all over the land l have seen nothing but kindness for many years-I cannot remember meet ing anything else but a very few times since I came here from Wisconsin, I have been there and back several times, usually alone, and 1t is wonderful to see how kind everyone is, and how surely someone anticipated my need of a ser vice. Many times a young girl has helped me to something needed. And of- ten 1t is a workingtnan. in. rough cloth ing, who goes out of his way to offer Kindness to a strange woman who is alone. I could tell of many instances.
 congratulate the editor on the fine new dress. of The Bulletin I enjoy read ing 1t much better now. I am glad the headings were not changed-they were on the first papers remember-and The Bulletin was the first knew and read. will not say how many years ago-I think that when you begin to count, and reach fifty. it is well to stop-don't you?
 should not think you could keep up your meetings with dinners, if you set the tables, and dishes have to be washed there. think we have evolved a bet ter way here. Each one going-here all the family goes-takes a basket with the food and dishes needed themselves and little more, so that they can invite guest or more to eat with them. Some times two or more families join and share their food together. Each carries a package of sugar and ground coffee. and a bottle of cream The coffee is put together to cook, but there is always enough for all. When through. the dish es are put back into the basket and the washington is done after reaching home No one does anything except to get out her own food, for herself and her fam fly if they are there: There are many gatherings here which would not take place if part of the women had to work while there.
 A new family moved in here. about four miles from us this spring. There are two small children. one of whom has been i'll. so the mother has been kept at home. At the Ladies' Aid Iast week it was decided that they must call on her at once. in spite of the work. % Tuesday evening those with car-and that is most of u=tcked up those Who did not have ttHm, took tfIeer food. cofee and sugar for supper, and went to see them It would have been too far to go with horses for the evening at tIais time of the year. but they got there early, had q pleasant tine, and left A little of each ones cooking to fetp the mother over' the next day wonder if eastern women do such things? From my memory ok Connecticut. should szy that they Ssd not This fs one reason why those who come west seIdom re- turn to the east
