Trumbull Thinks That Development of City Should Give Way to Importance of Caring for the Health. Regarding the location of the site for the New London county tubercu- losis sanatorium, Trumbull in the New York Herald Sunday said: Reference -to the tuberculosis com- mission and its work brings to mind the objection that has been made by prominent citizens of Norwich to the locating of the New London county home for the treatment of tuberculosis on the Post farm in tha from Norwich have waited on the board with a view of having the site changed. In every respect the site is ideal. If the board had known before it purchased the site that it was ob- jectionable there is no doubt it would have tried to meet the objections. But the property is on its hands. The state now has title to it. The plans buildings to be erected on it ha: prepared and the contracts will be soon awarded. The men from Nor- wich, representing the Board of Trade, have made an offer to the commission to provide a site that is equally desir- able, in the hope that the commission will abandon the site to which there is objection, The Norwich people show the greatest consideration for the com- mission and they appreciate the fact that the members of it can look at the question from but ene point of view, and one only. The commissioners’ standpoint must be that of the inter- ests of the state. They would not be justified in taking any other view. The matter at the present time is under consideration. The reason for object- ing to the site is that it will retard the growth of the city in the direction to which its development Is Inclined. It is impossible to overlook the impor- tance of this reason. Each community in the state has a friendly interest in the prosperity and development of all the communities which make up the commonwealth. No city or town should be impeded in its growth by a course which ig avoidable. But, on the other hand, the tuberculosis commission has Cosgrove of Willington, on The | the interests of the state to look out | for. These interests involve the health of ‘the people, and nothing could be more important. Even the develop- ment of a city must give way to that. Tt Is recalled that when, at one tiae. it seemed likely that the New London county home would be located in New London, the peovle of Norwich object- town. Men of the been EULOGIZED DR.

While it was the last meeting of the cam- paign, the speakers all laid stress upon the fact that this was not to be taken as closing the movement in Norwich but rather as a summary which shouid give a new starting point for a contin. uation of the five-point programme, and in each department they reported a set of recommendations which the churches might follow out in develop- lnz the work. eated with the flve leaders on the platform were the pastor of the church, Rev. E. 8. Worcester, Rev. C. H. Rick- etts, Chairman A. A. Browning and Vice Chairman James L. Case of the local executive committee. The chorus of forty men under C. D. Geer were also seated on the platform and led the singing. . The meeting opened with the singing of the two hymns, Come Thou Al- mighty King and O Zion Haste. Rev. E. S. Worcester read the scripture les- son, prayer wag offered by Rev. C. H. Ricketts of the Greeneville Congrega- |/ tional ehurch and was followed by the anthem by the men’s chorus, Send Out Thy Light. Leader Hubert. With a brief word of introduction, Pastor Worcester turned the meeting (over to leader Hubert, who told the congregation that each moment-of the time spent here by the team had been one of pleasure and it was with regret that they would return again to Hart- ford. He described the general con- duct of the campaign with the five- point programme conducted by 18 dif- ferent central cities, and to sum up in a great conservation comgress in New York city in April. He read the sug- gestions to be left in the hands of the Ccommunity extension and evangellsm committees in Norwich. For communi- ty extension, thege included more shop meetings and for evangelism a wider enlistment of the men of the churches in presenting Jesus Christ to the un- churched men. He recommended a fed- eration of churches be formed and for each church to Tay out a five year ex- tension here of the men and religion forward movement in the five-point programme. Missionary Committees. Mr. Legg of the Hartford team,whose subject was Missions, was next heard from, giving his report upon the possi- bility of organizing- the churches so that we shall see in this generation the coming of the evangelization of the world. He advised the formation of missionary committees in the church and Sunday schools, missionary educa- tion through the laymen and the pulpit, the formation of a missionary atmo- sphere, intercessory pravers for mi: sions, a provision for those who will volunteer for special' missionary ser- vice at home or abroad, a systematic every member canvass and a weekly offering for missions, till we haye done our best to reach the last man and the last .woman. Social Service Needs of Norwich. Judge Marvin made the recom- mendations along lines of social ser- vice, defining it as the care the church needs to exercise over those in trouble or distress. The eight points were as follows: I—More men and boys interested in gocial service in Norwich, such interest to be manifested not -only in increased financial support of existing charitable institutions but in active social work of some kind. 1I—Means of enlisting men and boys in active social work by social service committees or organizations in every chureh. III—Co-ofdination and co-operation of such church committees or organ- izations in a central body for inter- church work covering the whole town of Norwich. IV—Inter-church completion of sur- vey or investigation of social condi- tions, and publication of results through charts to be exhibited and summarized reports to be printed in the daily press and otherwise. V—Platform meetings under inter- church management, for the considera- tion and discussion of conditions thus revealed and fing concerted - action ent and relief of such In particular to determine whether or not in Norwich the laws are en- forced relating to (a) Prostitution and houses of il fame. (b) Sanitary conditions in' tenement, lodging and boarding houses (chapter acts of 1911). (c) Prevention of the spread of con- tagious diseases. (d) Sale of liquor. Alsg to determine what wage is re- quired for the snpport of an American wage earner and hig family in Nor- { wich. VI—More general and more liberal Tnited Workers and 14 association, and. if pe tension of the work of the fc the line of providing short day emj having families, and day nurse fleges as accessory thereto | tension, if possible, of plans of Play- ground assoclation to secure the use of some central space for athletic zames, | under competent supervision, between i bovs 10 to 18 vears of age, such as baseball, football and tennis, and avail- able cleared ice for skating and hockey in winter. VII—In connection with school con- idation, the designation of certain { school buildings for the social use of | immigrants and their families evenings, including supervision and instruction in laws of this country, state and city designed to secure a representative form of government and the health of the citizens. VIII—Co-operation with social ser- vice agencies in all parts of the state in directing the attention of the people to the need of (a) A state farm for drunkards. (b) Adequate compensation of work- ingmen for industrial injurles. In comment upon this progrimme, Judge Marvin said that his observa- tion in Norwich had shown hir. that the city was a heautiful one, with ef- flelent schools, fine churches. protec- tion for the stranger who falls among thieves, provision for his care in a fine hospitel and for the arrest of the | 15 & dare which apy man thieves, but we are not clearing the road of the thieves which wre in the way to mar our children’s lives and lurg our boys and girls into habits of In the latter class is the dranken yand, for whom the law makss no provision, but allowe him o retur en's lives the same conditions as exists mn him. A verse of the hymn, All Hai Power of Jesns me, was sung a Judge Mar address. Boys' Work. On Boys' Work Rev. Mr. Kenuedy reporied. He declared that .the fa ther's place was to be the chum and companion of the boy between 13 and 18, while 1t is the woman's place to hold the father true to the home. IHis recommendations for beys' work were to develop the boys’ personality by giving them something definite to de in & departowqt and { Poli's theater a mass meeting for mes | given with {mony by the choius of men. Praver | the Episcopal | Cambridge, Mass. Rev, Dr. Nash, who has spoken here before, was received with a ripple of !applause, His topic was Finding One's | Soul and he spoke from the text, How long go ve limping between the two if the Lord be God, follow him. counci] in which he shall be responsi- ble, and then make some provision for the boy's social life through his church connection. Show the boy, too, that the men are standing with him, have fathers' and mothers’ meetings to tell him the things he ought to know and also to study boy nature. In the com- munity algo to make everything con- tribute to the good of the boy life through support of the ¥, M. C. A. and other organizations for the help of the boys. TUse the school bufldings for social purposes and have an interde- nominational boys' counell. Bible Study. Professor Davis reported for the de- partment of Bible study. In the church and Sunday school programme he rec- ommended more emphasis upon the devotional use of the Bible in home life, organization of boys' Bible class department and men's classes, effort for increased membership, Bible study committees with each brotherhoo cultivation of strong evangelistic spirit. For Inter-church work there could be a federation of men's classes to work along the lines of the different phases of the suggested points, and a city in- stitute for teacher training, embodying courses for teachers, and classes for leaders of class groups, older boy lead- ers and Sunday school superintendents, the last named on management. The growth of men's Bible classes in the last few years, he said, has demon- strated that men want to be interested in the study of the Bible: Put a large vis}on up to men and they will respond to it. An anthem by the men's chorus fol- lowed the address of Professor Dav responce from Chairman Browning an from Vice Chairman Case to the ques- 1*? Responding, Chairman Browning said | that “service” was one of the words! that expressed the spirit and motive of this movement, and he was heartily Justified, in his mind, ag the expecta- tlons which he had had beforehand. He hoped thut the people of the churches ould look upon it as a privilege rath- er than a duty to carry on this work in the five point programme. He spoke with praise of the unselfish character of the work dome by the Hartford men, contributing their services whol- ly without recompense, and he ex- pressed to them the thanks of the churches of Norwich and a Godspeed as they departed from the city. He s followed by Mr. Case, who gaid that the church people were to| approach these recommendatians for future work with the thought, We can do it if we will. He placed emphasis upon the value of the federation of churches and the plan of the five point campaign within _every chureh. In| these three days, he said, I belleve the | Men and Religion Forward movement in Norwich has only just begun. After the singing of “Stand Up for Jesus,” the closing benediction was prouounced by Rev. Mr. Kenned; When the meeting concluded it turned into a short informal farewell recep- | tion for the team members, as many who had formed their acquaintance in good-bye handshake and word of ap- preciatfon of their work here.
