D,, of Bridge- port, that has been given this week in the Kensington churches was concluded last evening in the Congre- gational church. Altogether it h: been a very fresh and vital presenta- tion of some of the great facts that 2re fundamental to religlous think- ing and living. It has been very stimulating and thought provoking. Before beginning the subject of the | evening, “Losing the Sense of Im- | mortality,” Dr. Swain answered some | auestians that had been asked about the Bible and about the reason for o much suffering in the world. He d that the suffering in the animal world may be far less than imagine, . that for the most part 1iving creatures the terrors of death to the human person are due largely to imagina- tion and intelligence, which animals lack. Our of sorrow and pain may be explained in connection with the training and | d@iscipline that is desikned to form character for eternity. The lecture began tion: “Why are so many | losing their assurance of | ity?” He said that not nions are nNow pr heaven, except at Fast: heaven was very con fore the minds of the hell. But the old of | have largely lost their mean and no 1o r appeal to a sreat many people. Many are saying: “We don't know very much about the future “Slipping” Caroma with the que people immortal- many ser- hed about time. Once kept people, ntly also picture: jife.” Dr. Swain insists that we can | know much about tho future life, al- entertainment of Kensington’s Young | of the Kensington Grammar | though this knowledge can not all be proved. His view rests upon the conception of God as the one great reality in the universe. That has been the founda- tion upon which all his lectures have been based. One man said to another, “The parson, doesn’'t know any more about the other world than we do.” But really there is no other world. The universe is one great whole, and the same God is in every part of it, and the same laws prevail everywhere. God is not going to abandon his uni- verse, ‘eaving it half done. Man has capacities and asplrations that are un- satisfied, even in the longest earthly life, and the future will afford oppor- tunity for unlimited growth and de- velopment. If there is a God who ha made us for such aspirations, and will not allow us to attain more than is possible in this earthly life, he is not a good God. The question as to how matters whether we know about the future was illvstrated by some boys who thought they could enter college without having made ¢ny proper prep- aration, so *hat examination proved them wholly unfitted to enter college and undertake the advanced studies. ‘Without the vision of the future, there is no proper perspective. We need this vision, as the workman needs the ar- clitect’s plans in constructing a build- ing. Withcut the vision of the future one may, like a pet dog, grow old and lazy and worthless in the world. like an old man who was described as ‘“not bad, but not good for anything.” When the body loses its vigor, the spirit may sttt aspire, looking forward, if this vision is cherished. A poor, sickly emaciated child can’t get much of the real joy of living. So cur souls need to be tended and nourished and en- riched, after the likeness of Jesus, much it of life eternal will be.

Gwillim made concerning freight here. Co-operating with Chamber of Commerce President Trumbull recently appointed M Gwillim, C. H. Norton and E. H. Hil to ascertain what part Plainville playing in causing freight congestion which result in the placing of em- | bargoes. The committee learned that the force at the local yards handles Plainville freight without any diffi- culty and that the trouble is due to outside sources. When congestion de- velops in Hartford, Bridgeport, Wa- terbury and other places in the state large shipments of freisht are sent here to be transferred and as a con- sequence the conditions become such that an embargo on small package shipments from outside Connecticut is necessary. The manufacturers and business men in general are put to considerable inconvenience because of this arrangement and a protest against involving this town for the benefit of other places may be made. Mr. Newton advised the directors at the Bristol and Plainville Tram- company has agreed to remove ghtly stumps of poles from the strects. The association recently com- | plained about the action of the com- in leaving them in the highway. regretted to have to advise, how- | ever, that the company has not vet complicd with the request for | dimmers on trolley cars standing at the local terminal. Autoists are great- | ly annoyed by the glare of the lights on the cars and there is grave danger of accidents at the terminal because of the negligence of the corporation. Several months ago the association succeeded in getting the company to use dimmers on the lights while the cars were standing and the trouble | was temporarily removed. For some reason, unknown to the directors, the improvement was short lived and the | lights are no longer covered. Unless | the company agrees to do something | to dim the headlights, the directors | threaten to appeal to the utilities | commission. | The hoard was advised that the | work of laying gas mains on Broad | street has been started and that the | Tramway company has promised to | extend the pipes on West Main street | as soon as the work now in progress | is completed.
