Card-Summit- - . - are manv lovelv little homes in Snow- flake; the sisters have no particular way to get means to help those who travel around, but a little troop of young folks gave some home dramatic performances and gave the Relief Society sisters fifty dollars: the society own a carriage, but have to hire horses when they travel, recently they raised means and bought a cow. and gave to a poor family that they had to provide tor. 1 hey have one visit a year from the General Board, whichi s much appreciated. The speaker felti t was a great privilege to be here, though she had to cornea long distance to attend the conference. President Julia P.

Alberta Stake was reported by Sister Rhoda Hinman as heing in a very prosperous condition, quite an increase in members, and it covered a great deal of ground, 200 miles a. ound, they visited once a year, and the nearer branches twice a year; she felt the sisters were doing well. Sister Julia P. M. Farnsworth, a member of the General Board, was delighted to see such a fine attendance at a morning session; spoke of our living in a great and important age when everything seems advancing rapidly, education, art st of it and the sciences, and in all there are miny more cares and anx ieties in regard to our children; there is greater responsibilities for the mothers because with the growth of knowledge and intelligence, the mothers must keep abreast of the times to be able to discuss various subjects and enter into all the topics of.the day and the hour.
