Lymnn Rogeu of Vonmllc Visits -Neighbors and Gets About Umldod—Sotrd Lin in the Bringing up of Olden Days. : 9 Lyman Rogers, who resides with her daughter, Mrs. Nancy M.

Today Mrs. Rogers is mentally and physically more active than’ tire majority of persons is at the allotted ' three scdre ' yvears and ten, and is ahle to converse interestingly Mrs. upon natters that happened away back in the early days of the nine- teenth century. When ‘the idea strikes her, she thinks: little of taking a walk to the homes of neighbors and deeply resents the watchful care which, on these oc- casions, . her. relatives feel thev exercise, Mrs. Rogers does not wish to be reminded of her age—that, of course, being a general femnine traft— and her family takes care to avoid menttipn - of this in her present. She was born In North Groton, now known as the town of Ledyard, August 16, 1909. cy (. Perkins and she was one of a family of 15 children, of which she s the sole survivor. She was the oldest daughter and the second oldest in the , 8 brother being the eldest. hter of Russell Perkins and Bath!hebn Chapman. When', 24 vears old she married Charles. .andmoan Perkins, a Groton man. Four children were born of the union. -After the death of her first busband she remained a widow for six years, then married Lyman Rogers, by whom she had five children, She was seen on Sunday sittinw “v the window of her room looking ot on the flower beds, writes a Montville correspendent.

Just you try it.” In bidding the venerable woman good afternoon she was particular about requesting another call soon, Among her valued \treasures are a cigar pox brought from the south by her first husband in 1872 and the old English reader in which she and many of her brothers and sisters first stud- ied. It cannot be doubted, that, while longevity apparently is to scme extent hereditary in her family, the good, plain living of her earlier years has had much to do with her wonderful preservation, combined with her extra- ordinary will power and determinmation, this later at times making it no easy matter for her family to guide her movements. Her appetite is excellent and she wants her food to be substan-- tial. In walking she relies to some extent upon her staff now, but skie likes to be out of doors ail she can and has dur- inz the summer traveled considerable dlstanb!! “to talk with her friends. Up- on one recent occasion she went off in this way and resisted all efforts to induce her to come home, remaining all ‘night -out of . doors rather than submit to be led back.

Thomas Simms, formerly pastor of the Fast Main Street Methodist church, but now located in Braintree, Mass. ' This ‘artigle won honorable, mention in a prize contest/ last month, the subject being If I Were to Go. to College Agdin. It is as follows: Granted that as a youth I possessed the same experience and wisdom which mature years have brought me, I should select a collezm having for its president a strong, virile, emsci- entious man, in whom the students i have the utmost confidence, and who inspires men to covet a noble man- hood. T should decide upon & college which. while giving due prominence to physical training, does not subor- dinate all else to athletics. The college of my choice would be one where the fraternity spirit is nor- mal, not exceeding that of class and college, and where the expenses of societies and fraternities do not em- barrass students of average means. While in college, I should, through the gymnasium and by other methods, seek to build up a strong physical bddy, to serve me in good service through the stress and strain of the many years that follow. My relations to the college faculty ought to be quite different from that which obtains in many quarters. As- suming that they are men of superior ability, without whom it wonld be impossible for a college to exist, it would be wise for mie to avold a spirit of hostility. ctiticism and aloef- ness and in every possible way to avail mvsel?! of the advantages that would result from a friendly attitude toward ther and of close personal contact. It would be a great gain to me while in college if T were able. to keep free from all hostile criticism of { men, addresses and sermous Appreciating the great value of friends and the rare opportunity col- lege affords for cultivating a body of sincere friends, to whom I may be e et e ) Now Is Your Opportunity ——TO BUY +— High Grade Sample Shoes for men, women and: children.
