Light Was Subject of Rev. F. O. Cun- ningham at First Baptist Church. At the First Baptist church Sun- day morning Rev. W. S. Maclntire, field secretary of the Lord’s Day league of New England, spoke upon the Sab- bath Question. meetin. Three from New London are Mayor B. F. Mahan, Prof. C. S. Buell and A. H. Chappell. The meeting was called to order by Mayor E. L. Smith of Hartford, and Miss Elizabeth Wright was made clerk, It was decided that the college shall be called Winthrop college after the sixth colonial governor. Miss Wright was named as chairman of the sub- committee named by the committee of the Hartford college club, and they reported favorably to the New London site and offer. Chairman Smith, in speaking from the floor, urged a de- lay in the matter of deciding upon the site and urged further consideration of it. The vote was taken, however, and eight of the incorporators were in fa- vor of New London, on the condition that New London raise $100,000 to go to the endowment fund. The city al- ready has pledged to furnish the site and give $50,000 towards securing the same. Mayor Mahan of New London, Miss Smith and Miss Wright were named as a committee to secure the incorpora- tion of the college and on Tuesday or Wednesday they will file a petition with the state secretary for a special charter, The officers of the institu- Before 1912 it is hoped to secure as an endowment fund $2,000,000, and in addition the sum of $500,000 for build- ings to be first erected, for equipment and first requirements. There will be three buildings at the start, a large office and .administration building, rooms and recitation halls and a large dormitory. The matter of the curriculum, fac- ulty and such details it was decided to leave with the trustees to select. The site will consist of 280 acres of land in the northwest section of the city, extending from the Strickland property to Gellows lane, and from ‘Williams street to Bayonet street. Forty acres will be across Williams street, north of the high service res- ervoir. It is all high ground and a beautiful site, overlooking the city, river and harbor. The Allyn estate has donated 50 acres, and others who own part of the property have agreed to give land, while some have placed a low price on their holdings, so that it is believed that all of the 230 aeres which it will be necessary to buy can Dbe secured with the $50,000. It had been rumored that Morton i Plant had offered to give $100,000, but this report could not be confirmed In the evening Acting Pastor Rev. F. O. Cunningham gave an interesting illustrated lecture upon Light, using many candles and a calclum light. Rev. Mr. Cunningham read from Genesis, Matthew and John for the scripture lesson. Lighting a large candle, as the spiritual light, the unfailing light of God, from which we, as His children, should receive our light, to use in His service, he said there is one true source of spiritual lizht. CHristian light.is not a questionr of environment but must be brought into touch by his “n- finite love. The candles were ° arranged, some singly, some in groups, each set telling fts story and bringing out its lesson. Lighting one candle from another as is God’s method brought Rev. Mr. Cunningham to his first thought, in- strumentality; first have light yourself and then you may light another’s light. The first group of candles was in col- ors, each with its meaning or lesson. Purple represents royalty, and he cited Queen Victoria as of a beautiful Chris- tion light. Yellow representing those with gold or wealth who are using it in His_cause, thus being a light for Him. Red stands for intellect, show- ing that one may be brilliant and in- tellectual and still need to be lighted with the spiritual light for work. By the candles he showed how one repre- senting a boy could enter a home of spiritual darkness and therein kindle and spread until many homes were lighted, bringing out the text.. The entrance of thy word giveth light. The change from a group of lights to & brilliant cross represented the church becoming a unit in its work for God. Other lessons were drawn, the closing one, illustrated by the calclum_ light, showine the one light, though bright, needs the oxygen of spirituality to be- come a burning and shining Iight. Next Sunday morning Rev. Mr. Cun- ningham begins a series of sermons on The Lord’s Frayer. OBITUARY. Jonathan 8. Satterle: Jonathan Stoddard Satterlee, one of the oldest residents of Gales Ferry, passed away after a short illness re- sulting from a general breakdown due to old age at his home in that village on Friday night. Mr. Satterlee, who was a native of Ledyard, passed his 84th birthday on Nov. 2 last and has been a refnarkably active man up to within a short time, having been confined to his home but a few days before his death.

Seven out of ten people are troubled with it in some form or other, but the people who take Smith’s Digestive Tablets are finding life a great deal easier than it was before they used them. These well known tablets are a sci- entific preparation which produces the best results without any harmful after effects. Two or three of these tablets taken Aflfr meals will relieve the dis- tress caused by any kind of a.meal. If you are troubled with indigestion or dyspepsia inany form, just try a bottle of Smith’s Digestive Tablets.

C. Wright, Hartford; secrgtary, Miss Sunday evening, and by one of those at the head of the project nothing had been heard of any such promise. It is possible that Mr. Plant will be num- bered among the contributors. MAY PEPPER VANDERBILT INTERESTED LARG ECROWD Talked on Three Themes and Gave Demonstrations at Spiritual Acad- omy. Astrology, a physical and a spirit- ual body, and eternal progression, three themes suggested from the au- dience at the Spiritual academy on Sunday evening, formed the basis for the address by Mrs. May Pepper-Van- derbilt, the noted medium, who spoke and gave spirit messages at both the morning and the evening service be- fore large and Interested audiences, who applauded her words and her re. markable demonstrations of psychic messages. Astrology, Mrs. Vanderbilt said, had played its part in the way to the great- er and holier beacon lights of the age in which we live and wshe affirmed her belief that the Star of Bethlehem was none_other than Halley’s comet, and the Biblical story an allegory, each appearance of the star meaning a new revelation of truth. The birth of Jesus occurred when the earth was in the zodiacal sign of Pisces, or the fishes, so that there was a harmonious rhythmic relation in his picking fish- ermen for his disciples, ‘Whenever the earth was in this zo- diacal sign of Pisces, or the age of water, events of great moment might be expected to occur, she said,” which would have a relation to water. As instances, she stated that the world was in the sign of Pisces when Colum- bus discovered America, when Watts discovered the use of steam, when Fulton built his steamboat, and in 1889 when the first real success in subma- rine boats was achieved. In 1900 the world came under the sign of Aquar- ius, the sign of the soul an air sign, under which the tendencies are spir- itual and reaching upward. As in- stances of this were the production of the Blue Bird and Peter Grim, the development of the spiritual side of men, the demand for justice, the cult for deep breathing, the achievements in liquified air and in aviation. These all lead us to realize the mighty pow- er of astrology, one of the sciences of the soul, which, when linked with astronomy, is the union of the spiritual and the physical Eternal progres- sion, she said ,is the destiny of the human soul, and today we prepare the material for our home over there, to which we pass through death to the progressive, eternal and immortal life. . After her address, Mrs. Vanderbilt gave over a dozen messages, which were recognized by all to whom ‘they were addressed. RUNAWAY BOY FOUND AT NEW LONDON Charlie Yonkowski, Aged Nine, Had Been Away Since Friday. Sunday evening at New London the police picked ie Yonkowski, aged 9, of this cit vho has been away from home since Friday. He was sent to this city, getting here at 10.50 o’clock, and was then sent to his home by Captain Linton. Sunday aft- ernoon his mother complained to Chief Murphy that he had been gone since Friday when she sent him to school with some food. He did not go to school, but went to his uncle’s in Palmertown. He stayed- there until Saturday, when his uncle sent him home, giving him a dime to pay hi fare. Instead of coming here he went to New London, where the police found him Sunday evening. He has been in the habit of running away since he was, four vears old and only a short time ago he took a younger brother with him. He seems able to make his way, though he is a young- ster and likes to roam. FUNERALS. Miss Annie E. Wade. . The funeral of Miss Annie E. Wade was held from her late home. on Main street, at 2.30 o'clock Saturday after- noon, the services being conducted by Rev. Herbert J. Wyckoff, pastor of the Eecond Congregutional church. There were many inattendance, and many handsome floral forms testified to the esteem in which the deceased wus held. The bearers were Charles S. Holbrook, Richard Powers, J. J. Par- sons and Louls Frazier. Burial was in Yantic cemetery, where a committal service was read. Church & Allen had charge of the arrangements. Spoke on Modernism. Rev. H. C. Ives, pastor of the All Souls’ church in New London, on Sun- day preached 2 strong sermon on Mod- ernism in the Roman“Catholic Church and referred to the growing liberality in religion. He scored the Vatican heavily in the orders causing the priests to refrain from reading only certain books, which he claimed was for the purpose of keeping them in ignorance of modern thought. He re- ferred to the pope’s latest encyclical today men | never for a steady diet. BURNING BOOKS, OR GOOD AND BAD LITERATURE Fierecest Battles of the Future Are to Be Fought With Pen and Type, Says Rev. Dr. M. S. Kaufman. Sunday evening at Trinity Metho- dist Episcopal church Rev. Dr. M. S. Kaufman preached on Burning Books, or Good and Bad Lierature, taking as his text, “Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together and burned them before all men, Acts xix, 19. He said, in part: The burning words of St. Paul at Ephesus set fire to thousands of dol- lars worth of wicked books. In com- ing years the blazing words of Christ's gospel are destinted to burn up all per- nicious literature. It does not have that appearance now, we must confess. From present surface Indications it would. seem more likely that floods of pernicious literature are destined to put out the fires of gospel truth. Such is certainly its tendency. But apear- ances are often deceiving. If we walk- ed by sight alone we should soon be groping in the darkness of despair. Faith is clear visioned and can pierce the thickest clouds and always find the sun shining. Literature has become one of the mightiest of all facts for blessing or cursing society—for ele- vating or degrading communities and individuals—for helping the soul in its wpward flight or weighting it down with burdens that sink it to ruin. There are two kinds of burning ‘books; those that burn up the base and corrupt vices of the heart, and those that burn out of the soul its best impulses and holiest desires. There can be no question in thoughtful minds concerning the proper choice between these two varieties. The one consumes the dross in human nature; the other destroys the gold. In the selection of literature ‘or persinal use, would it not be well to determine which result we prefer? It is a matter of choice. We can have the base metal burned out of us, or we can have the precious gold consumed. Which shall it be? Each one will decide for himself. The press never had such wide in- fluence in molding character as in our day. 1Its leaves are like the leaves of the forest in multitude. Would that they were all like the trees of paradise, whose leaves are for the healing of the nations. 3 fiercest Battles of the future are not to be fought with swords and guns, but with pens and . L.t us b ve that a purified and stian literatura is to trample down and crush out that i s polluted—that ultimately the bad book is to be displaced by the good As a matter of fact, there are now many more solid and valuable books published than light and_trast one! In a certain year the English pres issued 3,063 new books, and of these 2,902 were substantial works on science, morals, government, educa- tion, and other subjects hich tend to elevate ms ind. Only 461 of the more than three thousand were works of fiction. Aboue one-third of the, whole number were in the realm of | theology and religion. But the readers of th t publ tions far - utnum- ber the readers of the weighty vol- umes. We cannot belleve’that this will always be the case. As men and wom- en rise in the scale of.true living they will demand such literature as contributes to real manhood and pure womanhood. Fiction at its best is to be commend- ed chiefiy for hours of relaxation and 1t is better fitted for dessert than for a full meal. Promiscuous and excessive novel read- ing vitiates the taste for books of the first rank and weakens the mental fac- ulties. Every one who can should be- come acquainted with the few truly great writers—those who have express- ed the finest thoughts and sentiments in choicest language. Parents and teachers have a great responsibility in helping the young to form the taste for good reading and the habit of utilizing it. Some parents would be surprised and pained if they could know the vilest books their children have read or are in the habit of poring over. Our land is flooded with trashy books and periodicals gotten up expressly for girls and bovs. Reading which' gives the young dis- torted .views of society and disqualifies them for the demands of noble devel- opment is-to be shunned. Literature that glorifies evil, winks at vice, toler- ates sin, that lauds as heroes notorious villains is burning literature. It blasts character. Books which diminish rev- erence for God and things sacred, con- fuse our ideas of right and wrong, which dull the conscience and render the soul less senmsitive to evil, and dampen ambition for high achievement, lowering life's worthiest ideals, are burning books. They weaken self con- trol and make one restive under the legitimate restraints of divine law. They make wrongdoing appear attrac- tive and rightdeing monotonous and even repulsive. ~On t‘heezlher hand, literature which strength faith in God and goodness, which inspires the | soul to’ climb the heighta of Christian charagter that it may become worth as much as possible to hum in the last six years. The births during the year exceeded the deaths by 103, being large in num- ber each month of the year except January and September, the average per month being 48, while the average monthly deaths were 40.
