They carried out a dozen planks to the end of the string of boats,, placed some of them, but were then compelled to retire under a very galling fire from the enemy, who were snugly ensconced in rifle pits below the range of the Union artillery and within 15 or 20 feet of the rivers edge.

NORWICH TOWN Representatives from the Federation of Churches Describe Committ Work —Rev. R. A. Breed to Speak in the Chap At the midweek service of the First Congregational church Thursday even- ing there were present representatives from the Federation of Churches, wWho told of the work of different commit- tees. J. B. Stanton, chairman of the boys' work commitfee; was the first speaker. This committee is organized with a man and a younger man from each of the churches, he said. They serve the committee best by serving best the local church. If the church is to have its work carried on in the future it must use every effort to keep the beys in the church. There might be club work in this locality, whereby older boys could work for younger boys, The physical welfare of the chil- dren must be looked after. The big brother idea should be worked. Find the conditions under which the boy works. Is he surrounded by tempta- tion? Get him another job, Is he earning a large enough salary? See that he does. Dr. F. O. Cunningham told of the work of the committee on evangelism. Its object is to seek to increase the roll of names in heaven. Our committee is face to face with peculiar situations. Just what line of evangelistic effort cen we hope to stimulate in the churches? The Federation of Churches will never succeed unless it finds & place for evangelism in its scheme. The winning of diseiples is the one object of Chist's church. We in these days need again to get a new perspec- tive on the work of the chureh.
