Kinney Remains in New London in Connection With Tract Matters. Mzs. Sara T. Kinney of New Haven, honorary past regent of the Connec cut D. A. R, and president of the Fort Griswold tract commission, who has been at New London some weeks arranging for Wednesday's celebration at the fort, will remain there a few days more, closing up some matters in connection with the tractt. Mrs. Kinney was greatly Dleased at the complete success of Wednesday's cel- ebration. A feature of the event, which showed the thoughtfulness of the members_of Anna Warner Bailey chapter, D. A. R, was the serving of refreshments in the chapter house in the rear of Groton monument. The heat was great and the cool lemonade and other refreshing things served there were much appreciated. Mrs. Kinney in her address, when she presented the keys to the governor, saidy Your Excellency: Included in the business which was transacted by the Connecticut general assembly in 1909 was the passage of a bill lating to the public reservation known as the Fort Griswold tract. By virtue of this legistative act, the state commission in charge of this historic landmark was empowered to do whatsoever might be deemed necessary and suitable for the preservation of the old forts, and for such restorations and improvements as might legitimately come within the limits of the national and state laws under which this particular tract of land is soverned. I mnow have the honor to report to your excellency that a goodly part of the pleasant duty delegated to the commission has been performed and that a brief statement eoncerning it will be presented during the gemeral exercises. My present mission concerns_this memorial en- trance to the tract of land which environs the upper and lower forts. This gateway with its bronze tablet bearing the names not only of the killed but off every man who had an part in the battle of Groton Heights is the gift of the state of Connecticut in commemoration of the heroic de- fense of the old fort by 165 American patriots against an assault of approxi- mately 800 British soldiers on Sept. 6th; 1781. In obedience to the require- ments of a bill passed by the United States congress in 1902, the design for this gateway was submitted to and r ceived the approval of the secretary of war. If the substantial character of the memorial, its simple dignity and artistic merit meet with the approval of the governor and other patriotic citizens of Connecticut, the Fort G wold tract commission will feel amply repaid for its labor of love. And now, sir, I have the great sa isfaction of presenting to vou the key to the entrance, and in behalf of the Fort Griswold tract commission of Connecticut to invite you to unlock the gates and to declare the formal open- ing to the public of Fort Griswold Me- morial park.

Salt Lake City, Sept. 7.—Throug¥ a spectal ruling of the interstate com- merce commission a large part of the wheat crop on 50,000 acres of land near Idaho Falls, 1da., has been saved. Early last week the farmers realized that their wheat was ripening so fast that unless cut at once it would be mostly lost. 0 binding twine could be had at iocal supply houses, and the matter was placed before the inierstate com- merce commission, with a petition that an_express company should be permit- ted to grant a special rate whefeby a carload of twine could be shipned from Chicago. The petition was granted and a car of twine started west last Sat- urday, arriving at Idaho Falls on pas- senger time. Within 30 minutes the twine was being distributed and the lgathering of the wheat began, Y| it thrived. ' GENERAL SECRETARY STARKEY { it SPEAKS AT CONFERENCE. The Unchurched Men and Boys Wa: the General Topic of the Afternoon at Griswold. ' ~ ¥ | Morning showers delayed attendance, but by noon the usual number of dele- | Bates represented all the congregations of the conference of Congregational Wednesday, % Rev. F, S, Bamford of Plainfield led the devotions. Rev. Clarence H. ber of Danielson preached the sermon. The text was taken from Judics, 17: 3, “Now know 1 that the Lord will do me go0d, seeing I have a Levite to' my priest.” The argument showed the falsity_of dependence upon an official, or a Sunday school, or a wife. who had all the religion in_the family for Christian charaster, Effective intluence must be found in personal devotion and service, The choit sang the anthem Come Unto Me. The social hour was passed in par- taking of a generous collation and a friendly feilowship under the Pachaug oaks, Afternoon Service. % Rev. Dr. Gane led a brief praise ser- vice in the afternoon.

Speaking of present agencies at work to reach men and boys, Frederick R.| Starkey, who is general secretary of the Norwich Y. M. C. A. pointed out that in 1870 there were 8,500,000 men and boys engaged in agricultural pur- suits and 4,250,000 in ihdustrial pur- suits, while in 1910 there are nine mil Hon in agricultural work and twenty million in the industrial. The trend is cityward, for where once agricul- turc clafihed dduble the men and boy: that industrial life did, the ratio is) more than double the other way now. This condition is having an effoct on the country home and the home influ- e things that are having an effect on the country home, such as al irit of restlessness to get away to the easy means of travel of- the trolley, the temptations and diverting influences of the city. and less respect paid to tre.dition. its evangelistic method and mes: the church is meeting these changed conditions in different ways. Meetings for men andl boys, unhe 1 of years ago, are now carried on, giving a spe- cial message, manly and bold, {o those fitted to receive such a message. The evangelistic appeal is made not onl; showing the fullness of life to be ob- tained through Christian faith. Bible Study. A development of the years has been greater attention paid to The whole Sunday school movement is in fact new, and there is now a spe- 1 movement to inerease the study of the Bible by men and boys. The in- ternational committee of the Y. M. C. A has mapped out courses in Bible study for men and boys. As examples of its spread, he cited the city of Buf- falo, where in one department last three years 1,500 men had been engaged in Bible study. The same is true in the churches throughout the country. Fifty per cent. of the dents at West Point have been en- . on the hereafter, but on the now. churches at the Griswold church on | Sible study. | in_thel stu- | - Opening Display of fine clothes for Fall and Winter; early showing of the new, late fabrics, the smart new styles and models, just in from HART SCHAFFNER & MARX and other good makers.

The church, too, is catering more to man’s thirst for fellowship, as shown by the brotherhood movement, a rec- ognition of the social need of man. So. many fraternal organizations test also to thi; , and more and mor emphasis is being placed by the church upon this desire for Delvelopment in Line of Service. There is also a_development: in the line of service. Men and boys are no longer merely intent only to drink in the message, but men express their faith by their activity in Such is the laymen’s missionary move ment and the religion forward move- ment, which has besun a national- wide campaign of evangelism. Bible study, social service, i Scouts, Knights of King Arthur Big Prother movement are all an evidence of the same tendency. The Y. M. C.
