things which viii not bear the light
of day. 1t becomes a double curse
s when it is used to deplete our
t churches of their congregations.
{ When it becomes the means of caus-
). ing men and women to forget their
e duties toward God and takes them
I away from the temple OF worship
/ and carries them on a journey Of
{ sinful pleasure; when it does these
2 things it becomes thrice curse and
| will ever remain so until these great
| abuses are corrected.
The Ladies Aid Society of the M.
E. Church will meet at the home of
: Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac +. Warren, Sr.,
, on Monday evening, November 30th.
A full attendance is desired.
Would it not seem more apprOpri-
ate that instead of filling the land
with costly churches that we should
expend some of the funds collected
for that purpose to build up the con-
gregations of the churches which we
already have?
1t is to be regretted, especially for
the sake of our poor, that the indus
try of making holly wreaths will not
reach its usual proportions this sea-
son. 1t is true while the natural ber-
ry is scarce, artificial ones will be
| substituted This new berry is very
pretty and resembles in a large de- !
gree the natural berry. The trade
doesn't seem to want them, but de- j
sire only those wreaths which are
made from green holly leaves and I
decorated with the berries gathered |
from the holly trees.
Our farmers and others are busy
saving wood and storing it away,
getting ready for the cold winter
months yet to come. 1t Is very nice
to have a large pile of wood under
shelter so we won't have to run out
of nights and get our fingers cold
pulling it out of the snow.
Horses, mules and cattle seem of ]
late to be dying at a faster rate than {
usual. 1t is a common occurrence
to see the dead wagon from Milford /
passing through our town with the /
body of some animal loaded ON it. 8
We are hearing much talk about
the many nice hogs in the town and {
We are waiting to hear {
from Uncle Andrew DickersOn, so S
come forth and tell us the size of a
your porkers for this year. e
The revival services which have b
been in progress for two weeks in b
the NJ. E. Church here closed Sun O
day night. Want of attendance and
little interest shown on the part of 7
the members was the reason given T
for closing the meetings so early. h
A report is current that our streets
are to be lighted again. The power ]
S to be furnished by nearby town. a
We hope the news is true and that 6,
he lightning bugs will be compelled a
g stay in winter quarters and the C,
)wls seek other places to rQost. W
