A TRIP TO THE NORTH sunday school atal est mercantile house in the county editor CLIPPER I 1 write you thinking a few of the cogitations of my mind the result of a visit to the north end of the county might be of interest to the progressive part of the people who think at least once a week the kaysville Kays ville sunday school was the first to draw nay my attention it is considerably smaller than the east bountiful school but worst of all is they have not tile the facilities we have here they have only the hie vestry and ahe he large room in the tabernacle to meet in which necessitates the having of a number of classes in ill the one large room and each one annoys the other they have not fully adopted the graded system y yet t and under their present circumstances it is very dif i flou it do it but there is talk of of moving 0 over ver to t the academy where clerfe they would have hav several rooms for the different classes clas sei which will add greatly to the already well regulated and orderly school they came together at 10 a in and closed at about aib a m and it was the general expression that they had bad been together long enough at the close of the school I 1 was surprised to seethe people commence coming in again immediately but was soon apprised of the reason by hearing the assemblage of young and aldand principally young called to order by the bishop the meeting began in the way the saints usual usually ay start and the first speakers were a couple of candidates forthe for the southern states they were not the most experienced perien ced men in the town but they showed their willingness then which will soon develop into power when they ahey land among among a people who try like nicks band ot of all ages to estole the old prophets and their works but totally exclude gods power at the present they will soon learn the difference the between the drow drowning nina 0 straw grasping sects of all ages which have just happened to live in a period when there was no scripture making people living slid and tried to usera the authority and feast on the blessings given to a people who have long since passed away it appears that this is the second sunday the seared scared young men lave have been called to the front to get a mormon elders preparation for the dignified title of minister and consequently while graduating they have lad had double the schooling that many get but for all this extra advantage 0 a sympathetic remark was dropped to the effect that if they could get the bishop in a place they would like to duck him in a second time bro thomas roueche then delivered a very mild sermon for him as they say he generally becomes what some people are pleased to call but this time he was quite mild he lightly on what he called better advantages the boys of today have over those of his time lie called called their attention to the time when that part of the county was considered no good 9 but lie he appeared to be quite well satisfied at present one thing I 1 like about the meeting following the sunday school immediately is that we could see a large attendance of the young who had been to school and remained to the meeting it only delayed the dinner hour a short time and united all the short vacations into one which is long for one to go and see ones grandma or take a nap I 1 would rather get out and do all the work while I 1 am at it and then turn my mind in another direction the time of meeting being an all enjoyable one and the hour after ili meeting having been fully as satis fac spent I 1 took in the town and learned that the business was all in a prosperous condition considering the dull times the creamery had run every day since it started and is a grand success s new store was to my eye the pride of the town and his shutters being down his window display could be seen and appreciated the coop co op building is behind the times in in appearance pe arance hut but I 1 learned that the stock was fully up to the times and stood where it should sli the largest mercantile house in the county while they have not a building so large and nice as our 0 opera p era house they have a large hall L that people can enjoy themselves in an and they have a number of neat buildings and large enough to carry a good stock in and it makes lots of com competition petition which is the life of the town the grocery men have of late been making it easy to get supplies the merchants have not lot adopted the coupon and note system of credit which would save lots jots of work and mistakes I 1 was most surprised sed to learn the price of city lots which contain 34 3 4 of an acre and sell for from job to to look upon the two ends of the county we can call see advantages for each while they have the best end for grain ve c come in no 1 I when it comes to gardening from all our search we cannot find a business of the kind to corn coal pare with our bountiful lumber yard TOM
