It is expested that the finan-es of the local water department will not be in as good condition by a number of hundrgds of dollars thas fall as they wera last year at the same time, owing to the fact primarily that the engines for the pumps at the Mansfleld pump- ing station have had to be run practi- cally steadily all through the summer because of a shortage of rain, the ex- rense of maintaining the plant has be'n considerably more than hereto- fore. On account of this guite a little com- ment has been used relative to rais- ing the> dami at the Mansfield station by a foot at lgast. This would insure a more economical management of the plant. it is said, at a comparafively small initial outlay to the city, provid- ed, of course, the extra rise in the water does not make the project im- practicable by reason of a possibility of flooding adjacent fields and the to same did not counteract the resultant gain.

As a child he obeyed his parents; as a voung man he was ever subject to the law of God. Neither ~ Gethssmane mnor Calvary daunted him; he was obedient even un- to the death of the croes. We, like our Savior, must acquire the habit of obe- dience. Habit is Inclination become casy. The lesson ought to be applied in our civic life. Persons high in so- ciety as well as those in low life af regard the laws of the land to an alarming extent. Respaot for law should be taught the child at home, in achool and in civic life. Rev.
