Now the Peasant was anxious to reach the market early in order to strike a good bargain. Brandishing , a large stick in his hand, he hurried his Geese along as fast as they could waddle on their poor ' short legs. When the Geese got t'ired and lagged behind, he switched them soundly and hurriml 1 them on again. ' More and more loudly they complained as they went along. ’ "If that ignorant old fellow only knew who we were he would not treat us so,” they said to a passerby. "He would pay honor to us if 1 fce but realized that we are the nolile descendents of the very Geese who once saved Rome. In honor of our ancestors, feast days were appointed in Rome." "But what have you done to deserve honor?" asked the passer-by. ' "Why, our ancestors saved Rome!" quacked the Geese. “Yes. yes, I know that. I have read all about that but what have you yourselves done?" “We? Why. we have done noth1 Ing. but our ancestors ” “Let your ancestors rest in peace they were rewarded for ' what they did. You are fit only to be roasted." REAL FAME IS WON NOT [ INHERITED. o Zion Reformed Church A. R. Fledderjohann, Pastor Tomorrow is Pentecost which marks the outpouring of the Holy , Spirit.

in death. Doubtless there were churches of some sort in those days, .but the onslaughts of the savages, the ravages of other wars and the lapse of time destroyed all | trace of them. The earliAt known church in Florida now in existence, amj th-' oldest in the United States, | is the cathedral of St. Augustin?, which is mentioned in chronicles of the year 1703. When the BritMl fleet was withdrawn and the 'panish flag once m'ore waved over the peninsula the walls of the cathedral were still standing. This old church was built of stone, and probally the second church erected in the town'by Spaniards. In 1790 It was deemed advisable to build a better church, and the inhabitants were urged to contribute in work or money; it is said they Drought poultry, which were very scarce, and donated the proceeds of the sale of their chickens, which' then, sold at a dollar apiece. So the old church, along with anothef. were torn down, and along with Hu* money already raised sufficient material was obtained for the present cathedral, which was blessed December 8, 1791. 0 Presbyterian Church Hairy H.
