NEGLECT OF DUTY.
Editors Ioica Granger—1 fear that some of
us neglect cur duty as regards the assembling j hot, and so it is; aud by noon each day it ia oppress
or ourselves together regularly; or in other i ively so. It i« fine weather for
words, we are not as punctual in attendance j do wish that a first -clas* free/,
at our regular meetings as we should be.
This is decidedly wrong, Bnd cannot be view
ed in any other light. Let me ask what was
our object in ioiniug the Patrons of Husban
dry ? Was it not that we might improve our
condition, morally, socially and intellectually ?
And perhaps I might with truth add finan
cially ? Most assuredly it was. But this
cannot be done if we absent ourselves,
and neglect to do “the things which
60 nearly concern our temporal salva
tion.” Then let us press on in the
good begun work, and never “weary iu well
doing” until we reach the goal, for which the
order was first organized. As respects non-
attendance, I “know how ’tis myself.” We
are very busy sowing wheat; or we have com
menced plowing corn; or we have some fence
to build or repair; or this or that, and the
other thing, that requires our attention, and
v*e don't see how we can leave them all
go to the Grange. But we surely can attend, I twelv
at least once a month, if we only think so; be
sides, we are pretty sure to heir something
to our advantage, which we would have misl
ed, if we had staid at home. It is all right
and proper to work, for we have to “earn our
bread by the sweat of our brow,”1mt should we j
not economise a little, even in this respect, if
by so doing we can improvo and elevate our
condition ? The most of us have a way of our
rrning; but if we attend each
meeting, arid bear tho subject ‘talked up’ in i
all its bearings, perhaps we will hear of a , had
plan that will suit us, and we will adopt it in i Boy *oliloq«y—“That’* neat but uau^hiy.’
