That something, dear readers and pumpkin-pie eaters, is a sleigh with wheels on. Cupid will give a liberal reward for such a machine. Say! we had one of the finest sleigh rides of the season for which we wish to thank about ten. As we was busy putting down our ideas for the press last Monday evening, a crowd of merry voung people drove up, and said, "Hello! D. V. come and take a ride,” and we said, "you bet we will,” and we went.

White, was born Jan. 24, 1902, and departed this life Feb. 16, 1905, aged 3 years and 22 days. The sickness that proved fatal was of short duration, in which hope of his recovery was entertained but, alas, it was decreed that death was to be the victor. All that kind hands and medical skill could do was done to stay the hand of death, but it did not avail. We extend to the bereaved parents and relatives the sympathy of this community.

With a very few exceptions, all were highly pleased with their fine singing and able preaching. During their stay here they made a large number of friends who extend to them in their work their best wishes. If at any future time they can make it convient to hold another series of meetings here they will be gladly welcomed. About 25 of the young people of this community organized a surprise party expedition last Wedneseag evening and proceeded to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hall and gave their son George and John Stalbaum, whose birthdays are on the same dav, the surprise of their life. They were as much surprised as George Washington was, when bis father appeared upon the cherry tree cutting scene and made him immortal by compelling him to say, “I cut it.” Upon the arrival of the festive troupe, joy began, and lasted for hours and hours. Games of all kinds were played, stories were launched, until about half past 10 o'clock, when Mr. and Mrs. Halt announced that supper was ready. As the hungered marched to the.table we could see upon the faces the stamp of determination, which meant that each expected to make a brilliant campaign upon the eatabies. My, how the ice-cream, cake, popcorn and pie disappeared. By the law of goodness your correspondent was allowed to partake twice and a haif. At the hour of 12 o'clock we all de-

parted, wishing our host and the surprised one a happy life.
