METHODIST GHURCH DRIVE NETS $2,000 Former Resident Contributes $600—Mortgage Is Burned T0 REORGANIZE DRUM CORPS Organization First Formed in 1879 Will Soon Come Into Existence Again—Women's Club Plans \Whist —Rev. W. H. Robinson to Speak. The ‘burning of the mortgage on the Methodist Episcopal church took place last evening wtih the usual for- malities. The meeting was « very en- joyable one and the church was filled with members. The entertainment program was attractive and the speakers interested the audience. They included Rev. Dr. J. H. Bell of New Haven, the district superintendent; Rev. S. E. Lawson and Rev. A. F. Hagarty former pastors of church; W. G. Manchester, the oldest charter member, and Rev. Howard W. Benedict, the pastor of the church. Rev. E. C. Gillette, pastor of the Con- gregational church, offered prayer. Vocal solos were rendered by Pom- eroy Wilcox and Miss Dorothy Rogers. W. W. Fox favored with a cornet solo. Mrs. Frank Hohbein and Mrs. Merton J. Lamb presided at the piano. They rendered a piano duet which pleased the audience. The church choir sang a special musical program. It was announced that the campaign ng the church debt netted about §$2,000. The amount needed was $1,000. A letter was read from a fo! mer member of the church atating thal if the members arised $1,000 the sepder of the letter would donate $600 to clear off the debt of the church. The name of the benefactor was then annaunced as Mrs. Clara Alford Case of Pasadena, Cal.. a former member of the church. Mrs. Case lived Plainville wtih her family for a num- ber of years and was active in the work of the Methodist church. Recognition is due to the initiative and enterprise of the recently appoint- cd pastor of the church, Rev. How- ard W. Benedict, formerly of Hart- ford, for his part in organizing the campaign to raise the church debt. It was at his suggestion that the sub- scription campaign was instituted and carried through to a successful com- pletion. At a meecting of the official board of trustees held last evening it was vot- ed to send._a communication to the Methodist Episcopal conference re- questing that Rev. Mr. Benedict be al- lowed to continue his work in the pas- torate of the local church. The meeting last evening will be remembered by the church members for a long time as it was one of the few occasions on which there were so many church notables present. In- cluded were two former pastors, the district superintendent and the oldest charter member of the church. James M. Burdick, superintendent of the Stanley Rule & Level Co. of New Britain. and a former superintendent of the Sunday school was unable to be present. ‘Women Club Whist. The Women's club will hold a whist in Masonic templc on East Main street Wednesday evening, April 14. The proceeds of the affair will be donated to the public library fund.

Robinson, rector. of Grace church, Saybrook, wil be the preacher at the Lenten service at the Church of Our Savior tomorrow eve- ning at 7:30 o’clock. Rev. Mr. Robin- son is said to be an eloguent speaker and a large attendance is expected at the services. Reorganize Drum Corps.

The drum gorps was formed in 1879 and has been be- fore the public of this town on various occasions since that time.

The members hope the lists will accomplish satisfactory results. The officers of the newly organized C. Smith, manager; G. 5. Spencer. secretary, and A. E, Rob- erts, treasure Briof Items. James J.
