[ 4 NEN'S BIBLE 0L | DINES ON BIRTHDAY Fist Chorch Ocganizatin | 30 Years Old | Members of the Men's Bible class | o the First Congregational church | with their wives observed the 30th anniversary of the inauguration of | the class with an anniversary ban- quet last evening. Speakers were H.| N. Lockwood, who read the history | of the class, and Rev. Francis T.| Cooke of Bristol, who gave an il lustrated address on a trip to Pale tine. Mr. Cooke took as his theme “The Land of the Living Bible.” The affair was well attended. Hu- | bert 8. Blake is president of the class, and E. G. Bradley was chair- | man of the program committee. Rev. Theodore ~Ainsworth Greene was toastmaster. The program opened | with prayer by Rev. Alfred D. Hein- | Inger. Music was furnished by Har- mony lodge orchestra under the di- rection of Fred Eppler. Following introductory remarks by Rev. Mr. Greene, there was a so- | prano solo by Miss Doris Bradl with Miss Frances Parker at the plano. { Mr. Lockwood's address was as ' follows. “Mr. President, Fellow and Friends of thc Men's Bible | Class. As our time i somewhat lim- | fted this evenin~. and also consid- ering that the history of this class was gone into quite thoroughly five years ago at our twenty-fifth anni- wversary it did not seem wise to give space to anything but the high spots } or possibly what we might term the | *Beacon Lights" of this organization. “As some of you will recall, our first sessions were held in February 1898, three months after the instal- Members | | Everett lation of Dr. Hall which took place December 16, 1897, As we look back now after 30 years of class experi- ence it seems hardly possible that for nearly seven years there was no systematic organization, the class being carried on as many auch classes are with only a leader who in our case was Dr. Hall. One reason may have been that his gift for such leadership, which soon proved very great, rather took the | place of regular organization. “However, from the secretary's notes under date of October 2nd, 1904 we find ‘That after Sunday School we organized under the rame of Dr. Hall's Bible Class’ and a committee appointed the previous Sunday presented the following names for officers. For Presi- dent, Frank L. Hungerford; vice president, H. 8. Walter; secretary, G. Hoffman; treasurcr, George L. Btearns. There were also cuting, entertainment and executive committee. It has not been possibte |to find a complete list of the Char- there were many interesting lessons as well as from his experience as a theological professor. | *“The secretaries to whom we owe many thanks for long and earnest | service began with Everett G. Hoff- yman, who served from October 1904 | | till his removal to the Pacific coast | lin 1909; John O. Mills from that date to October. 1914, when he left us for Rhode Island; M. G.
