MADE AND SOLIDy BY SHITK'S 1, STORE Eranklin Sauare, Norwich, ! mfm o ch s James J. Smith Thers was a congregation at Christ at doth ser- vices on Sunaay. At th2 morning ser- vice Rev. Neiison Poe Carey took his text trom verse 24 of the 20th chapter of Acts: 1'hold not my life of any account, as dear unto myself, So that 1 may accomplish my course, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jasus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. This was the occasion when Paul was going to Jerusalem that ‘he spoke to the peaple among whom he haa commending to them the grace of Cod und referring o his work therz as a minister of God. Referring lo thig in the closing of his ministry ‘here, Rev. Mr. Carey gave expression to his deep appreciation of the help given him dudps the eight years as rector of his first parish. Like Paul, he felt that, though the cause of much regret, his duty in the ministering of the gospel calied him to other fields, yet he will always maintain an inter- est in Christ church and its work. He said that he feit no anxiety as to its tq{,ute. dut e ‘would always fesl an interest in it, knowing that his succes- sor will hc’gnhme the work of the Mas- ter faithfully and well. Preyious fo the sermon Rev. Mr. Carey referred to the 2xcellent work (the Junior auxiliary has been doing the past year. There were 52 on an average ‘at every session during the year, 18 having been present every Saturday, amd there were three who have been present every Saturday for five yaars except for a period of two weeks when one was sick. He ex- pressed hig gratification at the excel- lent work the auxiliary is doing. He also stated that the parish has had an excellent yagr, closing it without debt. There was infant baptism following the morning Service. Rev. Mr. Carey leaves Wednesday for New York, where he becomes as- sitant to Bishop Courtney at St. James' church. Tt is probable the vacancy here will not be filled until fall. Box of $8 Gold Piec: Their final meeting for the year was held on Saturday morning by the Junior auxiliary of Christ church with an especially ‘impressive service at 19 o'clock, at which both the choir boys and the choir girls were present and sang. In speaking to the auxiliary, the rector, Rev. Neilson Poe Carey, gave th>m ‘ae a parting swatchword the words Love One Another. The report for the vear disciosed the mariedly active and efficient service in various ways that the auxiliary had accompljshed, having given $50 to Bishop Paddock and sent boxes to va- rious missionary flalds. As a parting gift to Rev. Mr. Carey they presented him a box containing five $5 gold pieces, which he acknow- ledged with deep appreciation. Pretty potted geraniyns were given as prizes to eighteen of the girls and boys who had made a perfect record for the year in attendance. Of these «zighteen, three—Dorothy Ellis, Gladys Loudon and Aline Hitchon—had _not missed a meeting in five years. The others who were perfect for the year were Lillian Brewster. Dorothy l.ou- don, Arline Wilson, Viola Grover, Elsiz Jacobson, Lillian Beekman, Iva Fiske, Margaret Beekman, Leora Beekman, Joseph Muller, George Smith, Clinton Jones, Raymond Boyens, William Beekman and Frank Beckman. These eight had been absent but once: Marion Pitcher. Jessie Hitchon, Lildan Beynton, Marion Bliven, Robert Burns, Rhea Dobbrow, ' Olive Linton and Victoria Malmer. In the brass class two boy Louis Smith and Georgz Muller, were tied for the prize offered by Miss Mary Richards for the best work. Gift from Choir. At this service the members of tha choir also_presented their parting gift to Rev. Mr. Carey, consisting of a parchment scroil very beautifully illu- minatad in gold by Organist Willlam F. Habekotte. On the parchment was a verse of poetry and the signature of each of the choir members. Sunday School’s Gift. At the Christ Episcopal church school on Sunday morning the superintendent, ‘Welter B. Crooks, on behalf of the teachers and scholars, presented tha rector, Rev. Mr. Carey, with a coceanut wood cane and a handsome silk um- brella with a tinted ivory handle, ap- propriately marked. In receiving the gift, with a. few brief but touching worgs, tha rector referred to the loy- alty!shown to the school by its mem- bers and indicated how this same spirit might continue to be shown in the support they would give it until ths tims when a new rector should come to the parish. Set of Encycloped Saturday morning the ladies of Christ church parish presented Rev. Mr. Carey a full set of the latest edi- tion of Encyclopedia PBrittannica, con- taining 8 volumes and valued at $150, as a testimonial of the esteem in which he is held by ths ladies of the parish. A money order in paymeng§of the set, which is to be delivered to new home in New York, was mailed him, the donors expressing their sin- cers regret over his coming departure. Firemen Remembered. Rev. Mr. Carey, who has been so deeply interested in the fire depart- ment, has through .Chizf Stanton pre- sented to each member a photograph of himself. They were distributed Sat- urday morning and are highly prized by the men who had come to know him so well. $260 IN GOLD Presented Rev. J. J. Smith by Mem- bers of St. Mary's Parish for Pur- chase of Team. The basement of St. Mary’s church was filled to the doors Sunday even- ing with parishioners and friends as- sembled to bid farewell to Rev. James J. Smith, for the past thirteen and a half years rector of the church, as this week he leaves to take up his_new duties as rector of St. Francis' church in Fair Haven, a part of New Haven. The affair was in the nature of a sur- prisa to Father Smith, and a commit- tee of two. Dr. Edward J. Brophy and Joseph A. Donielly, notified him at the Tectory that his parishioners desired a farewell audience at the church. The rooms were attractively decoratsd with palms, ferns, potted plants and cut flowers. The evening's programme was opened with selections by the orches- tra of the Father Mathew T. A. so- cisty. Dr. Bdward J. Brophy made a brief address-of welcome, speaking of the purpose of the assembly and the love and esteem for their pastor which had prompted it. He then introduced John n. a trustez of the chureh, and who for the vast thirteen years has been an associate of Father Smith. In behalf of the members of the par and as a slight token of for Father Smith, Mr an present=d him a neat box con- ining $260 in gold and a set of reso- lutions adopted by the parizh. the money to 'be used towards the pur chase of a carriage and a set of har- ness.. The contributions ere limited by the committze in charge that the whole parish, might be represented in the gift. Tather Smith replied to the presenta- tion in a Atting manncr. He sald in part: ‘This testimonial, though highly appreciated by me.

I thank you all for your kindly attitude towards me swhile here. I have one regret— that 1 must leave you. But I leave you in the care of a capable leadsr and you have my best wishes for the fu- ture. Rev. John H. Fitzmaurice, the next rector of St. Mary’'s, was the next sreaker. He said: I did not come pre- pared to address you tonight, as Fa- ther Smith is still with you, and as I have not as yet taken charge of the parish. I came to show my apprecia- tion of Father Smith and of the a: gistance which he has rendersd me. The Greeneville parish has always had an_enviable reputation and I will try my” best "to continue the great work which Father Smith has been doing hers. I will do my best for you, and I hope you will assist me as you have assisted Father Smith. Remarks by Rav. William. A. Keefe of Voluntown, Rev.
