MEMBERS PROMISE INSTANT SERVICE Captain and Lieutenants Will Have Charge of the Work. BADGE TO BE PROVIDED The officials of Cgivary Baptist Church, it is understood, are arranging for the or- ganization of a society in the church, to be known as “Minute Men,” the members of which will stand re moment's notice to begin the performance of any task in connection with church work which may be assigned them by the officers of the ccramand. The idea is taken from a similar organi- zation m Fremont Tem: Boston, where the minute men have been the means of enlarging the Sunday school and young men’s Bible class, as well as to interest young men who are more or less inclined to neglect their religious duties. The pas- tor of that church, Rev. Dr. George C. Lorimer, finds it to be a very successful method. It has one sole object, and promote good fellowship among men. The members all wear a badge with the motto. “Promptness and Thorough- ness.” This is inscribed on a mounting of enamel, blue and buff, the colors of the church. These young men take full charge of the ushering at all services of the church, and about thirty are igned to each servic Besides seating all those who attend the that is to young services, they make it a special object to speak to young men who are str ngers and invite them to the Sunday school and Bible classes. The members select a cap- tain and first and second lieutenants as leaders. They hoki no pr: cs of their own, but try to enlarge the attend- ance at the regular meetings of the church, The Boston Plan. A letter from Captain A. C. Grainger, the commander of the Tremont Temple Minute Men, to a correspondent in this city says: “The Minute Men emanated from the activity displayed by the young men of Tremont Temple, when it 's being re- built, at a bazaar held to raise money for the new building. They were called upon to erect booths and do the manual labor of the fair. “A plan was suggested to organize the young men into a band, and through the aid of Dr Lorimer the Band of Minute Men cf Tremont Temple was organized in 1895. Within two years it has carri on a remarkable work. The nominal f of 50 cents a year is charged for mem ship. New members are secured active work of the members. They 5 to all the young men in attendance and present the plan before them, holding out the advantages of the organization. The young men are pledged to ar rtoar quest by the pastor at a minute's notice. If some one in his parish needs imme- diate assistance Dr. Lorimer notifies the captain, who in turn notifies his subordi- tates, who are within easy access, and a Minute Man is dispatched to the scene. A business meeting is held the first Wed- nesday of each month, when regular busi- ness is transacted and an address is de- livered by some representative business 1aan. These are the only meetings that the organization hold. There are five com- mittees—the lookout, the sick, the enter- tainment, the membership and the sick benefit committee. The duty of the loogout committee is to invite young men that at- tend the Sunday services to unite with the Sunday school and to ask them to join the organization. “The sick commiitee looks after the members who are sick by daily visitations ard providing for nurses—that is, this committee assigns «different nights for the young men to watch by the bedside of their sick brother, but no professional nurse is supplied. A Bei Fr “The sick benefit committee looks after the interests of the sick benefit society. This benefit is open only to Minute Men, end fis a plan by which in return for the payment of a nominal sum substantial benefit accrues to members in case of sick- ness. The Minute Man, in order to re- ceive the privileges of this society, has to belong to this rociety and pay an addi- tional fee of fifty cents. He has to pass an examination, and if he is found to be nor- mal he is allowed to join this benefit society. The society, in case of sickness, agrees to pay the afflicted Minute Man $1 per day for six consecutive weeks, pro- vided the membership is over 100, or, if under that number, 1 cent per day for each member of the benefit socitey. Benefits commence one week after the committee receives notification, -that time being considered necessary for inves- tigation of the case. “The entertainment committee provides for the monthly entertainments and so- cials of the organization, but they do not arrange for the annual moonlight excur- sion down the harbor. A committee of three, with the captain. is appointed by the chair or from the floor, as the mem- bers may desire. “This committee is the only one we give full power to to make all arrangements and pay all bills, bringing a report of money paid out, received and net profit. We deem it wise as officers not to make a detailed statement in public meeting, but of course if any member wishes to look over the accounts he is at liberty to do so. This committee also arranges for lectures to be under our auspices, to be held in the large auditorium, that seats 3,000 people, but by no means do we get the hall free in this case. We do get the hall free for our monthly entertainments and business meetings, as they are for the benefit of our society. “The membership is open to all young ten of good moral character, age not lim- ited. The Officers. “The officers of the organization consist of 4 captain, first and second lieutenants, secretary, assistant secretary, treasurer and secretary and treasurer for the sick benefit department. These are elected an- nually. A nominating committee is ap- pointed at the March meeting, and the nominations are made for all the positions except the captain. At the April meeting ihe officers nominated are elected, and then the captain is elected by a separate tallot. No nominations are made for this office, but every member writes on a ballot the name of the man he wants for captain and the max receiving the largest number of votes is declared captain for the coming year. “The organization takes its name from the pledge to respond at a minute's notice.” Captain Grainger stated in his letter that he was in receipt of many letters from members of churches all over the country who desire to establish similar organiza- tions, and already several have been started. >.
