Meetings Opened With Good Attend- ance in Spite of Unfavorable Wea- ther—Cottage Holders’ Business Session—Who's Who About the Grounds and in the Church Houses. It wag the largest audience which has yet gathered in the Tabernacle which greeted Rev. Harry Taylor, the evangelist, at the opening of the 53d session of the Willimantic camp meet- ing Monday evening. This is the fourth season in which this evangelist has been to the'camp ground. He is scheduled to speak every evening save Thursday, when he is to preach in the afternoon instead. Mr. Taylor read the 15th chapter of St. John's gospel, and Rev. Lyman G. Horton offered prayer. A solo was rendered by Mr. Paguette. Mr. Taylor as a basis for his re- marks read two passages of Scripture, the one referring to “the well of wa- ter” Christ promises shall spring up in the Christian’s soul; the other giv- ing the symbol of fire which was kept constantly burning on the old Jewish altar. From these he emphasized the necessity of a Christian's abiding in Christ, that he might not backslide. Prof. W. O. Turner’s 26th Season. At 6 p. m. the first gun of the camp | meeting was fired in a prayer and con- ference meeting held at the Stafford Springs house, led by Dr. L. G. Hor- ton, Prof. W. O.

Each day theré is a sunrise prayer meeting at § o'clock. Tuesday morn- ing it was in charge of Rev. Frank Chamberlain of Eastford. At o'clock there is a prayer and testimony meeting In the Stafford Springs house. Tuesday it was conducted by James Fitton of Stafford. The daily preach- ing services are at 10 a. m., 2 and 7 p. m. The morning preacher was Rev. A. H. Withee of Old Mystic. The meeting began with a praise service conducted by E. M. Wheeler of Providence, who for a number of sea- sons has led the camp meeting chorus very acceptably. In spite of the damp weather there was a good attendance. On the platform were Evangelist Har- ry Taylor, Revs. W. S, MclIntire of Hartford, L. G. Horton of Stafford, M. R. French of Norwich, G. D. Stanley of Putnam, Jerome Greer of Niantic, C. H, Van Natter of Warehouse Point, F. Chamberlain of Eastford, F. C. Baker ang District Superintendent Newland. The preacher of the fore- noon read the Scripture. The district superintendent offered prayer. Mr. Paquette sang a solo, Take Thou My Heart. The congregation sang He Leadeth Me. Mr. Withee's text was Romans 8:14. At the close Brother Taylor gave a brief exhortation and led a prayer service. Afternoon Services. The one o'clock meeting at the Staf- ford Springs house was led by Rev. George D. Wilbur, a local preacher, residing at East Wareham, Mass. At the same hour, Mrs. Jane E. Read conducted the first meeting for the children in the New London house. The Sovereignty of Christ was the subject of Rev, W. S. Maclntire's ser- mon, based on the words found in Isalah ix:7-8, “The government shall be upon his shoulder.” The Scripture was read by the preacher, Mr. MacIntire, and prayer was made by Rev. John Oldham of New Bedford. Mr. Maclntire, when he came to the thought of “He shall reign forever and ever,” introduced a unique feature by having The Hallelujah Chorus sound- ed forth from a phonograph loaned by Costello Lippitt. He went on to say that government is based on the three principles of legislation, interpretation and execution. Now, Jesus Christ is the only standard lawmaker. Each Connecticut legislature corrects the mistakes of previous legislatures and makes new blunders. Mr. MacIntire gave many Scriptures showing Christ's threefold sovereignty over these prin- ciples, and eloquently depicted the good time coming when there should be industrial, international and do- mestic peace.

SMITH, President and Genmeral Manager. CHARLES 0. GWATKIN General Traffic Manager NELSON I SMITH, Secretary and Treasurer From the new ocean gateway of New England, the deep and commodious harbor of New London, Connecticut The Royal Blue Steamship Company will operate a line of high class passenger and freight steam ships to the PANAMA CANAL and the WEST INDIES, con necting with other steamship lines to the WEST COASTS of North and South America. A weekly tropical fruit serv- ice, first from the Island of Jamaica, bringing bananas to the port of New London for distribution in New England and Canada, will be established. The terminal of the company will be the Central Vermont Railway dock in New London, the terminus of the Grand Trunk Railway System of Canada in New England, and ad joining the tracks of the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad, a combination of passenger, freight and tropica fruit handling facilities unequalled on the Atlantic coast Economic and adequate connections with the railroads of New England and Canada will result in vast quantities of profit making freight and full complements of passengers for the steamships being diverted from old channels to this natural and shortest route from Canada and New England to the Panama Canal, the West Indies and the West Coasts of North and South America. In the prompt, efficient and economical handling of the tropical fruit the company’s terminal, with the railroad tracks running alongside of the steamships, is not equalled by any other port. The remarkable financial success of companies alread engaged in the importation of tropical fruits to the United States is of common knowledge and in this department alone conservative estimates of the earnings of The Royal Blue Steamship Company show an amount sufficient in itself to assure large dividends to the stockholders. The amounts received by the stockholders of one company during the last five years equal a dividend of forty-eight (48) per cent. for each year. It is believed that the passenger accommodations of the high class steamships to be secured by the company will be taxed to their full capacity by tourists who desire to visit th Panama Canal and the West Indies. Last season there were not sufficient steamships to carry all those who wished to go and this year all companies are preparing for an unprecedent ed exodus to “The Summer Seas.” At a reasonable rate of fare this department will be highly productive of revenue which will swell the earnings for the benefit of the stock holders. An average of more than 2,500 tons of freight destined for ports reached by the steamships of the company can be handled efficiently each week and at the present tariffs income from outward cargoes will be very great. Confer ences by the General Traffic Manager have resulted in ass ances being given that enough freight will be offered the company to practically fill the steamships. At the present time indications are“that the company will be obliged to charter additional freight steamships to reap this rich financial harvest. To be conservatively managed by New England men of high business standing this new and thoroughly i t steamship company, already assured of a heavy volume of business for all of its departments, should appeal as an in- vestment of great desirability. From those persons who be- lieve in the advancement of the business interests of South- ern New England and especially Eastern Connecticut, (he purpose of The Royal Blue Steamship Company can receive but a prompt and hearty endorsement. With the initial operation of the company will also begin a flow of lucrative business to this district, and New England and Connecticut will ifiai“ come to their own—a revival of the wealth producing shipping days of long ago, the founda- tion period for many of the fortunes that now exist. The project has the fullest endorsement of many of the most prominent and conservative business men of New Los don, who have given it their financial support, and whos names will be given to prospective investors upon applica- tion. For the purpose of securing funds for immediate applica- tion to the purchase and chartering of steamships the unsub- scribed balance of $100,000.00 of the capital stock of the company is offered at par—$25.00 a share—full paid and non-assessable. Prospectuses of the company be fur- nished if desired.
