GRENFELL. ‘Eldred Brown, who sécured the priv- ilege of holding it in Broadway churth 80.as to accommodate as largs a num-, ber as possible. There Wwere inany waiting to get geats when the doors opéned ‘at 7.30° and the ushers were kept busy from that time on. On_the .platform with Dr. Grenfell were Archdeacon J. Eldred Brown and Reyv. E. S. Worcester, the latter pre- siding and opening the evening with prayer. Archdeacon Brown presented the baloved physieian and evangelist of the great north coast, briefly refer- ring to'his work which is so well known. * Why He Began the Work. ~ In opening his address Dr. Grenfell told briefly how he came to enter the service of the Lord, saying that while studying to become a Ssurgeon . he thought that the highest service of the day and generation was to hcal the body, but he soon found out that the acme of service was in bringing men’s souls to God. He decided that the best thing to do was to put his hand in the Masier's and to try and make return for what had been given him. He al- ays wanted to go to sea, and he went. 'here is no great praise due a man for going where he wants to. I crossed the waters from England and went to the Labrador coast, being told there was opportunity for work there. I know there are dangers there, but so are there here, where motor cars take life every day. I know New York and Boston, but I prafer Labrador, said Dr. Grenfell, - The- suceess in life cannot be measured by earthly possession, but by what you do with them. Twenty years ago Dr. Grenfell started in this work, going to Labrador because he was told the people there were worse off for the things he had to give than i were those among whom he was work- ing. Many discouraged him in the work. but God’s words “Follow me and I will make you fishers of men,” which are today on the wheel of his hospital ship, have ever led him on and strengthened his faith, He didn't go there, for his health, though it is a i healthy place, or for money, but to {help God's creatures. Old Monuments. He referred to the old monuments shown him here by General Alken on Thursday, and said that Labrador has them which antedate the conguest of England by the Normans ‘There are in the territory he covers 30,000 fisher- | men, 5,000 Indians, and as many more Esquimaux. Hospitals have been es- tablished along the coast and small grants” are received from the govern- ments. He pointed out on a large map the locations of the hospitals and showcd the distances covered by doec- tors on their dog sleds. The views of the different places and seenes in Lab- rador were beautiful, there being ex- quisite scenery and great canyons, while the advancement made by the people as the result of the influence he has directed - there is wonderful. Views were shown of mountainous cliffe, and the treacherous shores where there were no lights when he arrived to guide thg sailor; peor charts, and all had to make their way the best they could. Charts are now improved and there are a number of good pilots and a few lHghthouses. Most of his work is along the coast. very little being known of the interior by him. A view of one waterfall, a third larger than Niagara, was -shown. - It ‘would furnish. power enough for all Canada, but none of it is developea. The Indians there are wanderers. Little 48 done for them, and they man- to eke out an existence the best they ean They stand the cold well, though they have little clothing. There are many mosquitoes ‘there, and being covered by the hungry fellows, one professor there for a summer remarked ihat he didn’t see what they did Lefore he came. . : Hard and Disastrous Storms. “yelonie storms there are frequent and fierce, There are many lossés of ‘boats, both from these sterms and the ies, which carried them to sea or forces them:ashore. . The men are resource- fnl, ‘educated: in. the things nature leaches, and fine sailors. They do not sufler nervous breakdowns, as t their ook learning is not great. Some handsome views were shown ice packs, which are so dangerous that they are always given as widé a berth-as possible. .. 3 Theré were views of the people and a4 number showing interegting groups of chfidrén. It was found when he first went there that they needed most 18 necessary to eat to live. k ed the ability to keep ac ts and were unable to loagk after their busi- ness, the traders doing. an = extensive business off of the hard work of the wh ‘hecai Grenfell, was thorovghly appreciat- |~ a knewledge of what to eat, and that it ‘They lack-~ ¥ :Small Libaries. carried about. from Diace fo Digce i carried a p! o the bhuospital -shf%m £ G m thing tlat there are not too many s, as it is valuable to wet the right kind of books. - There I8 no use teach- ing them to-redd, howéver, if there are no books. - Whole meat is red, but it is nutritious and as good ak beef. It is much used for for Co-operative Stors. Pictures of the boats used by Dr. Grenfell and those at the different sta- tions were shown, including those giv- en by Princeton and Yale students. A number ;:f v:uels havla been ’l%uflt there, which gives employment. There is a srr:,all sawmill which is opérated. i as lumber is needed, but not continu- made to deforest thé section. Co-gperative people. taught to Kkeep accounts. Formerly the 'fishermen mortgagad their catch before they got their fish, so that a big cod swimming in from the ocean was really sold before he was hooked. In addition to the hospitals, many tents‘are used and there are anti-tu- berculosis camps which do much good. Law Abiding Since Liquor Was Ex- cluded. The people are law ablding and sin- cere since liquor was driven out, was found that liquor is not necessary and inadvisable among these people and it hag been practically eliminated there, There is no bad following to i be encountered. Dr. Grenfell declared { himself against the use of liquor, say- j ing that he had experienced many | hard, wet days, but néver felt its need. A pathetic picture was of two blind children, - twins, whe ‘ere given to the doctor by the parents. - They were i operated on ‘and can sec a little, but | have been taken-to g blind institute. The doctor is a residuary legatee, he says, as the parents often give him children and he told of threo of. the boys from there being sent to school in Pratt inetitute and other. schools, doing a great work. There are many houses built and guite o few for orphans. Little im- pression could be made upon children | by talking theology to them in a mud hut, 8o it became necessary to feed and clothe them and give them Dbetter homes as a way of reaching their souls. Miss Leslie of Boston has con- ducted ‘a kindergarten there and ef- fort is being made to secure an en- dowment for the work. Spinnipg and weaving shops were shown wherein homespun is turned out, while a view of a Sunday service on a hillside was shown. : Dogs Are Strong and Faithful. When the iwinter sets in the dogs are gotten out. They are strong, faithful, persevering animals, fond of singing and fighting, a ‘dispute be- tween two bringing all there are in the neighborhood. Sledges and dog teams were thrown on the screen, in- cluding one given by Cook and. Peary while they were in the north. Viaws of the sealing were shown. Dr. Gren- fell told of his trip aecross the ice when he fell into the narrow -escape. Big Infant Mortality. There is a large Infant mortality there, one out of every three children dying hefore one year oid. Christiani- ty is doing much for them. however. Views of the harem skirt as worn by the wemen there were shown, but Dr, Graafell does not consider them as sensible as the short skirt, The idea of having reindeer take the place of dogs was worked out : bringing 300 there, and now there are .. The deer are all right and save carrying large supplies of meat for the dogs. They are often balky, however, which is their only. bad festure. Collection $183.68. Dr. Grenfell spoke. for nearly two hours and was given the strictest at- tention and at the close he was round- ly applauded. Many took accasion to shake Hands with him. §183.68. There wer2 in the collection plates four $5 bills. three %2 bills. 39 $1 bille, 56 half dollars, 203 quarters, 256 ten cent pleces, 259 Aickels and 134 pennies, or a total of 954 pleces. During the evening Archdeacon Brown referred to the New England Grenfell association, in which mem- bership is $2 a year, including a maga- zine containing accounts of the work. The association conducts the financlal side of the work. The lecture was onc of the most interesting heard herz in a long time and the werk of Dr. Gren- fell’ will be followed more closely by Norwich people heréafter, The sterce opticon was operated dyring the even- ing by Rev.
