Rev. J. Spencer Voothees, former chaplain of the Third regiment, Con- necticut national guard, of = which there were several companies in this part of the state, has left the minis- try for business, declaring that there is not enough money in pastoral work to warrant his staying in it. This move of Mr. Voorhees will\be of much Interest locally, because of his many acquaintances here. He was appointed chaplain of the Third in 1898 and went out when the regiment went away for the Spanish-American service, which they never saw. Gen. George Haven of New London was ad- jutant general at the time. Mr. Voor- hees was appointed from Winsted. He succeeded Rev. N. T. Allen of Groton and was a popular chaplain. Rev, J. Spencer Voorhees was pas- tor of the Congregational church in Adams, which is mainly supported by ‘William B. Plunkett, the rich mill owner. Rev. Mr. Voorhees will become manager of an investment company. “Tn understand this, one must real- ize the problem that confronts the minister today,” says Rev. Mr. Voor- hes “Never was it so obligatory to live as well as his salary will permit. ‘While wages—have increased 50 per cent. and the cost of living about as much, his salary remains as it was 15 years ago. During an active and hard Working ministry of 25 years it had been impracticable to save an amount equal to keep him one year when he out of a pAstorate at the same rate of expense.” THREE THOUSAND VISITORS REGISTERED AT LOAN EXHIBIT Interesting Reports Made to the First Meesting of the Season of _Faith Trumbull Chapter, D.
