Wednesday's session commenced with devotional exercises held in the North church at 10 o'clock, the presiding of- ficer being State Secretary J. W. Rae. The first speaker was E. W. Brown of Boston, of the Pilgrim Progress, who spoke at some length concerning the use of the blackboard in' the Sunday school, illustrating his talk with cray- on_drawing: The principal address of the morn- ing was by Rev. A. E. Legg, eastern fleld seeretary of the Young People’s Missionary Movement, who spoke on the subject Missionary Education in the Sunday School. In part he said: The Young People’s Missionary Move- ment in the Sunday school is a vital part of its work. This is a critical time in the history of the work of the church. The Laymens Missionary Movement, the Sunday school conven- tion at Washington, the great Edin- burgh missionary convention, all tell of the new grasp which the church is taking wvpon this work. Five years ago such a theme as that of the Wash- ington convention would have been | impossible, viz: The Sunday School and the Great Commission.” There is a tide in the church which must be taken advantage of. The evangelization of the world is no short skirmish, but the work of great campaigns. It takes vears to evangelize, to educate, 10 Christianize the world. The church must gove continually of itself. It iy not by men alone, not by money, but by prayer and supplication. We must .arouse the latent power of the church. We can bring the world to Christ only by enlisting all the varfous powers of the church. Our work In the Bible school is to make it natural for the children to hold before themselves the thought and interests of the church and the service of Christ. Dinner to the visiting delegates was served at the First Baptist church. The siate president, S. H. Williams of lastonbury, presided at the afternoon ssion, which was opened with devo- tional exercises led by Rev. Charles W. Flint, pastor of the First Methodist church. The address of welcome was SCHOOL MEET Over 500 Delegates in Attendance from all Parts of Connecticut—James L. Case Responded to Welcome. T delivered by Rev Dr. Azel W Hazen, pastor of ‘the North Congregational ‘ chureh, and the response was made by the state vice president, James L. Case of Norwich. There were two general missionary conferences in the afternoon, one being held at the North church and the other at the Baptist church. At the North church W. C. Pearce of Chi- cago conducted the conference for the adult members of the association and Professor Edward P. St. John of the Hartford school of religious pedagogy made an address. The conference at the Baptist church was in charge of Miss Wilhelmina Stooker, superintend- ent of the elementary grades There were two addresses at this conference, The Lessons and the Child Life, by Miss Frances Weld Danielson, and Forming Child Ideals, by Miss Fran- ces Walkeley. At 4 o'clock there was la sectional conference at the First } Baptist church for seniors and adults {in charge of Mr. Pearce. There was ‘also 2 conference for _intermediate | members in charge of Professor St. | John and Rev. George B. Gilbert of Middletown. The conference for the elementary grades was in charge of Miss Daniel- son; for the primary grades, Mrs. Lucy Stock Chapin, and for the Juniors, Miss Stooker. In the evening Rev. F. Campton Ackerson, rector of the churcn of the Holy Trinity, was the presid- ing officer. There was a song ser- vice led by a union chorus under the direction of Arthur Schuckal. There were two addresses, The Art of Illus- tration. by Professor E. P. St. John of Hartford, and The Modern Sundav School Movement, by W. C. Pearce of | Chicago. The attendance at the session Thurs- day was larger than on Wednesday. Professor St. John,the principal speak- evening. dwelt on the ! ity of illustrations as a means iof properly teaching a lesson in the Sunday- school, and W. J. Pearce spoke of the value of co-operation. Thurs- day morning the chief address was by the Rev. B. F. Gilman of Hartford, and in the afternoon it was by the Rev. H. F. Adams of New London. The sectional conference excited a great deal of interest. In the evening there was a superintendent’s supper, at which there was some good speaking. Governor Weeks presided at the clos- ing session in the evening. | i | WOMAN IN CHARGE OF TOLLAND COUNTY JAIL State Board of Charities Considers Conditions Unsatisfactory. At the meeting of the state board of charit held in the Hartford cap- ito] Wednesday, Dr. Thomas F. Kane said he had been asked if anything had been done to improve conditions at the Tolland county jail Dr. Kane and Dr.. E. A. Down, an- other member of the board of chari- ties visited the jail in August and found its condition very unsatisfac- tory. It was not up to the standard of couuty jails in the state. The jail was not clean. They found that it was in ¢l ge of a woman. When the fa is considered that there were a num- ber of male prisoners in the institution and that prisoners of county jails are not noted for their amiability, the mistake of having the place in charge of 2 woman will be conceded. The state board of charities have o cated with the county com- f the county and with Spra zue in regard to the con- ditions at the jail. The county com- missioners said the trouble arises from the fact that they have not suf- ficient funds at their disposal to bring the jail up to the standard of the average jail in the state. The jailer is required to look after the prisoners who are employed outside the insti- »n and there is no male officer to his place at the jail. That is the on the two physicians found it in of a woman. ff Sprague has told the board of charities that he is in accord with the opinion that the jail should al- ways be in charge of a m But he n. is powerless, he says, to make the de- sired change so 1o s he is not al- lowed another officer by the county commissioners in their report thanked the sheriff for the ient manner im which he has conducted the jail.” The board discussed matters relat- ing to county home children Mrs. Frank A. Mitchell of Norwich and Secretary Kellogg reported a visit to the Thompeon almshouse, which they found much improved under the care of new keepers. Mr. Holman re- ported further a visit to the Gilbert home in Winsted and an inspection of the Middletown almshouse, which he found in good condition. Dr. Down reported for the commit- tee appointed to obtain information in regard to complaints at the Windham county jail that the committee was looking ‘up the evidence and would report at a later meeting.

Three acts in which the lovers of vocal and instrumental harmony are appealed to in a delightful way and one act which is a cleverly given play- let make a vaudeville offering at the Auditorium which is a taking combi- nation for the end of this week. In addition there are well chosen films of moving pictures which interest all attending. Ralph Kitner is a musical comedian of much abil which he displays in his novel use of the 'cello_and other instruments which are well received, while there is big applause for Harry and Flo. Lamont in_their aracter songs, their voices harmonizing ac- ceptably. Charlotte Coate and Mar- Zuerite appear in a neat and pretty turn, one of the team in male costume. They present a mixture of comedy and song in which their feature number is a novel musical dialogue medley which is deservedly popular. Lionel Swift & Co with their one act playlet, Ambition, are capitally cast for this pleasing offering, in whicl they show thé young American gir s with the resolve to marry into . until she-is disillusioned and decides’ that the good old U, 8. A. is good enough for her. The climax gets a flattering hand from the house. NORWICH TOWN Interésting Tidings from Rev. Edward H. Smith—Death of Mrs. Cornelius Sullivan—Meadow Stream Running Again. Mr, and Mrs. Edward Huntington Smith of Ing-hok, China. have sent to home friends here a leaflet upon which is a clear photograph of their new Ing-hok residence. In his touring on foot, which is 2 large part of his work, Mr. Smith writes of hearing “only na- ture's music, birds and brooks and roaring waterfalls. I came to a chapel situated in one of the wickedest lages in Ing-hok, where the chapel and Christian company are doing a remark- able work. Whan it became dark the preacher pointed ruefully to the little down from my basket and had it filled and lighted to the delight of all.” For the results of the work in the building of character he says: “For the poise, for the grasp of spiritual things, for added wisdom in the Chinese Christians we are deeply thankful. ‘It js great to be out where the fight is strong, “To be where the heavisst troops be- long And to fight for man and God.” Mr. and Mrs. D.

Maine has taken a giant stride in union supervision in ‘the past three years. No state has ever equaled this record except Massachusetts. In the eight years prior to the state superintendency of Payson Smith there was an average of five unions a vear. In the first two vears of Mr. Smith's administration there were 101 unions formed. In the previous eight vears there were an average of 166 schools a year coming under union supervision. In the first two years of Mr. Smith's ad- ministration 3,009 schools came under such supervision. In the previous eight years, an av- erage of 14 towns a year came into unions. The first two years of Mr. Smith’s administration 3 towns united. Now there are 141 unions of 3 towns and 4,344 schools. This is large- ly responsible for the great educa- tional uplift in the state. This great advance in the provision for rural school supervision is largely due to the law passed the first year of Mr. Smith's administration. The school committees of two or more towns, having under their care and custody an aggregate of not less than 20 nor more than 50 schools, may unite iu the employment of a superintendent of schools, provided they have been so authorized by a vote of their towns at the regular It may seem a little too early to talk Christmas ards but it is not a day too soon for you to see something entirely new in PERSONAL CHRISTMAS CARDS, Original and Artistic Designs with your name and address printed on each card.

The school committee of the towns comprising 2 union meet annually and determine the relative amount of serv- ice to be performed by the superinten- dent in each town, fix his salary, a portion the amounts thereof to be paid by the several towns, and choose a superintendent of schools for a term not exceeding five yvears. The state pays two-thirds of the sal- ary of the superintendent to the limit of 3800 annually on the part of the state. The union may include not less than 20 nor more than 30 schoo Any city or town having more than 50 schools may receive the benefits of law_without joining with other towns. The time given by the super- intendent to each town of the union is determined by the proportionate part of the salary paid by each. The superintendent of a union must hold a state certificate of superintendence grade. There is no restriction as to the number of towns. The only re- quirement is with regard to the num- ber of schools, There is no restric- tion as to relative location of towns forming a union.
