Church Notes.

The childrenssday service next Sun,
day morning will be in the North
church at ii o'clock. A special fea
ture Of the service will be the bap-
tism of children, and all parents hav-
ing children for whom they desire
baptism are specially invited. The
usual Sunday school study period will
follow the service.
The children's day collection goes to
the student loan fund, which for many
years has been a valuable help TO
Christian young people in securing an
education. The money in this fund
is never given away: it is loaned to
needy students and when repaid is
loaned again, so that the money is
continually at work.
The Near East pledge cards given
out a few weeks ago should be re-
turned next Sunday.
Sunday evening the service viii be
on the lawn at Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse
Pixies, and all are invited TO meet

Old Orchard Beach folks are said
to be dissatisfied with the appearance
of men and women on the main bust
ness street of the community clad in
the garments they wore when dipping
into the ocean nearby and parading
with all the nonchalance of persons
dressed in ball room adornment. AL
though Old Orchard Beach is sum
mer resort one must admit that there
is some reason for the complaint.
There is no good ground for breaking
down all the conventions of street
dress simply because the community
happens to be summer resort. The
police of Old Orchard intend to force
semi-nude paraders to cover them
selves with some flowing garment or
get paraded into court. At least that
is the determination, unless the story
of their complaint was merely hot
weather yarn.

Il E.
| The retreat Of the Irish Irregular
| forces southwark before the persistent
attack Of the Free State government
troops must cause feeling of appre-
hension to come over the population
of the city Of Cork, the place which
seems destined to he the final stand
OF the irregulars before the might OF
Ghe Free State government troops. a
stand there would. mean partial de-
struction of the city of Cork inasmuch
as the Free State forces are resorting
to shells in order to Gust the irregu-
lars from towns along the line OF re-
treat toward Cork The metropolis
of southern Ireland already has suf-
fered very severely from various
causes so that it is not making prog
ress in industry or in commerce. A
Smelling of Cork in order to drive the
irregulars out of the city would mean
further tremendous material loss,
from which the city would be very
long time in recovering, if it ever did
fully recover. Therefore, the people Of
Cork must be looking forward TO the
coming of the irregular troops with
not little alarm, not because OF lack
of sympathy but because they know
that the coming would mean an attack
on the city in the expressed purpose
of the Free State government to sub
due completely the organized resist
ance to the government.

LETTERS ToTHE EDITOR
Help Your Back Roads.

Editor, Barre Times: Some of tbs
law makers Of the state of Vermont
in their zeal to attract tourists anc
to advertise the natural beauty of ths
state, are forgetting or neglecting 9
very important part of their state
the hill farming community.
There are large number of these
hill farms in the gate on which nc
one lives. The buildings are in state
of neglect or decay. On most of these
hill places the grass is cut and sold
off the place and nothing in the shape
of fertilizer is returned to the land
This kind of farming impoverishes the
land.
In the time OF our grandfathers
these hill farms were among the best
in the state and with their cattle and
"betterments" were sources of wealth
to the state for the purpose of tax.
alton. To-day there are no better
ments of any kind on these farms and
the land itself is growing poorer ev,
cry year.
What Vermont needs to do is to put
IUeSt itffns III inc rildp tutN Mttt III
the time out grandfathers. The time
will come when this viii be done
whether the present generation be-
lieves it or not. These farms can pro-
duce as good hay. corn and oats as
they did 50 to 100 years ago. All
they need is the Drawn and headwork
of young blood.
The young man who has foresight
enough TO buy and work one of these
farms should be encouraged in every
way possible. The laws against stray
dogs should be made so stringent that
his stock is safe.
Some of the money that is being
used in making and caring for state
roads for tourists who cont care a
continental for the state at all, could
better be spent in giving the hill farm
err good roads TO his farm. Good roads
would enable him 10 connect easily
and readily with the villages in the
valleys. Good roads would also help
him in getting his children TO the vii
lage schools. Frank H. Craig.

Sky observers in Massachusetts
town recently saw flock of about 200
geese flying southwark in their V-for-
nation. The layman's Interpretation of
that this unusually early southwark
flight indicates an early, and perhaps
very cold, winter. However, the
naturalist's Interpretation of the &C.
currence may be different. We await
the Interpretation of the latter before
making up our mind definitely what
a midsummer southwark flight Of
geese means.

AN INVITATION TO
CLARENDON PEOPLE

Sumter, September 23.
The progressive and hospitable men
and women of the zoar neighborhood,
of Concord Township, in Sumter coun-
ty, most cordially invite the citizens
of Manning, and of Clarendon County
to join with Sumter county in cele-
Eating the completion Of the first
seven mile section of the splendid
hard surfaced five inch base concrete
asphalt Sumter Manning road, at Brit
tons store the evening of October
the 9Th, 1922. This is going to be a
pleasant scciable "Better Acquain-
tenance Meeting" between Sumter and
Clarendon counties-and between COM
munities in general. The hospitable
ladies of Zoar Methodist church have
kindly arranged to put on delightful
barbecue hash, rice, chicken in sew
eral styles, salads, biscuits, coffee, ice
tea, cakes, pies and other features of
the hot suppers for which these ladies
are famous, the proceeds to be devot-
ed to the erection of the new church.
One of the most eloquetn orators will
make timely talk.
A big crowd will motor over from
Sumter, men, women, boys and girls
and it is hoped that the county seat
of Clarendon Manning will do the
same thing, and that citizens from
all over both counties will meet at
Brittons store for this enjoyable occa-
sion. Work on the final lap of the
Sumter-Manning road is rapidly pro-
crossing to the Sumter Clarendon
counties line.
The Sumter Chamber Of Commerce
has been requested to extend to Clar-
endon county citizens through The
Manning Times most cordial invita-
ton to participate.

The possibility of entering inc Irish fight for freedom apparent ly never entered his mind until the outbreak of the world war, when he suddenly left his lonely camp in Cam eda, crossed the ocean and became one of the central figures In the famous Easter rebellion of 1916. He was captured but later released under the amnesty.
 For many months he took an ac- tive part in the guerilla warfare which scourged Ireland, but 1t was as the leader of the republican forces that seized the Four Courts building in Dublin that he first came into in- ternational prominence. His defence of that place with comparatively handful of men in the face of artil- lery bombardment from the Free State guns caught the popular ad- miration on both sides of the Atlan- tic.
 However the hopelessness of the situation with endorsements lacking and the Free State forces sent on a prolonged siege If necessary finally in- duced him to surrender and sinco that time he had been treated as a prisoner of war.
