Anderson forwarded the Register a copy of the Annual Report of the District Schools of Weber Co. The book is well printed, print-ed, and filled with school, matters. It also contains the new School Law. We acknowledge the courtesy court-esy of Mr. Anderson. The question has been asked: "Does Free Schools imply that the pupils are at liberty to 'make free' with the premises, fruit, out-buildings and pumps of those living near the school houses?" We rather think not; and the teacher.and trus-t trus-t :es should see that no such thing i ) done. We should certainly term uch freedom rather "Irish." A gentleman who reads the Rtc-"ER Rtc-"ER very closely, asks how we can jve that we have the prettiest girls and the noblest boys in the County, nd advises us to take out those two items from our column of San Pete's possessions. Wt don't care nything about tie boys, but if the gentleman wants to go back on the girls, he roust do it under his own signature. In reading history and biography and seeing what narrow escapes the great ones of the earth have had of never realizing their hopes, how they have been lowly born, and unlettered; un-lettered; have struggled with poverty pover-ty and oftimes with bodily affliction, it is not at all difficult to guess that many a bright-mind, many a noble project has gone down unrecorded with, its originator into the shadows of the valley of death and oblivion, A little girl in Gunnison was playing in the rain, and being bidden bid-den by her mother to come in, did so, asking: "Where does God live mother?" "Oh! up in the sky, I guess, "said the mother who was deep in the pages of a book. A few moments mo-ments later, there was a terrible clap of thunder, and the rain, that had momentarily slackened, began to descend in torrents, and the lady observed the little girl apparently in extacies of delight, and asked her what was the matter. "Oh! I am so glad God wont get wet, I heard him slant bis door ever so hard just as it began to rain fast." The origin of the Gunnison R. S. Store is unique. Five ladies lent ten dollars each, without interest, to the Society, to be paid back when convenient. An experienced experienc-ed clerk in the Co-op store of that place undertook, with permission per-mission of the superintendent, to handle this money in the store, buying buy-ing and. selling for them seperately from the rest of the business. She turned the money so many times that it was not a great while till it could be weaned, so to speak, and they, set up for themselves. Eventually Event-ually they paid back what had been lent to them, and the store was without beginning, and we hope it will be without end, for by its help the ladies are, enabled to supply the wants of the needy at any and all times, without immediate resort to the pockets of the charitable. The store belongs to no man or woman but is managed and presided over from time to time by those who occupy oc-cupy the honorable position of "queen of the charitable."
