Y, Members of the official board of Trinity Methodist church learned for the first time t evening that Rev. William H. derson, the pas- tor, had reccived a call to occupy the puipit of a Brooklyn church. The offer came on June 1, when the local minister received a letter offering him a larger field of op- portunity and a larger salary. At that time he wrote, thanking the Brooklyn church for its offer and for the opportunity, but stating that he had been in' New Britain enly three years and his sense of loyalty to the local church prevented him from considering any change. He thought that was the end of it and passed it off as a minor occurence which might happen at any time. Much to his surprise last Sunday REV. W. H. ALDERSON after services he was visited by committee from the Brooklyn church, which had attended the service and heard him preach. The committee members said they would not take his original reply as a def- inite refusal and insisted that he re- consider, again pointing out the added inducements. The result of the committee's visit was the real- ization that Rev. Dr. Alderson has definitely decided to remain in New Britain. The official board last evening re- ceived the resignation of Miss Gladys Shailer, deaconess. Miss 8 ler some time ago announced her inteption of leaving for Africa where she will enter missionary work., GLADYS SHAILER Her official resignation never was submitted, although it was general knowledge that she was leaving and would go to Africa this fall. Miss Shailer: will receive her dis- trict commission at a convention of the Women's Foreign Missionary So- | ciety in Hartford, October 4. Oc- tober 12 she will leave on a threc weeks trip to California where che will atend the national convention of the same organization and there will receive her final commission Returning to her home in Water- bury, she will leave in the latter part of November for southeastern Africa, where she will take up her life work. Replacing Miss Shailer is Miss Eva Barnes, who has joined the church staff as director of parish work. Miss Barnes Is a native of Windsor and received her early cducation fn the Windsor schools.
