Foss Made a Good Catch at Best View. ‘With the month of August snapper blues begin to run along shore and up the river and a number of midsummer fishermen have had their lines out in the last few days. While most of the anglers have come back to the city with stories of ill luck, James N. Bur- ick and Frank . Foss had a different to tell when they reached home Sunday evening. Fishing at Best View the skill of Mr. Burdick anrd his com- panion had netted them forty of the blues and they had also taken time off to catch 35 crabs. DANCED FORBIDDEN STEPS.

Marion with others went to Oc- cum in the evening to attend a dance given in the new hall near the church. Some dances were forbidden by those in charge, But in spite of this Marion indulged in the forbidden pleasures. Constable Filliger, who was asked to keep order in the hall, spoke to Mari- on, requesting him ro stop. Marion ignored the officer's request and forced the constable to resort to his club in carrying out his duty.

Irving H, Bersg of the South church, Hartford, preached an excel- lent sermon. His text was St. Luke 19-20: “For the Son of man is come to seek and to'save that which was los! He said that of any number of texts which might be chosen for this ad- dress this one seems to sum up the most accurately the meaning of Christ’s mission. It furnishes the key to Christ's own conception of his mis- sion; of the mission of the Christian church, and of a Christian's relation to the church. A Tender and Touching Stery. This story of Zacchaeus is one of the ones we have. Here was a noble and generous man who was Gstracized by his call- ing. He was a gatherer of taxes and as such was set apart as belonging to the strong arm of the hated Roman power. But he was large hearted and benevolent and his interest in Christ had transformed his character as it always does. He had heard of Jesus and was anxious to see him. He goes out to see him and, finding the people thronging the highway, he goes ahead | of them and gains a vantage. point. There is nothing dignified nor marvel- | ous about it—simply an ordinary tale. Jesus recognizes this interest and re- wards_ it by promising to be Zac- chaeus’ gu There aret-as always in every company—captious critics among the crowd who begin to protest against going to the house of such a man. Jesus replies to them in the words of our text. He puts his ’Pm- phasis upon his supreme mission. This is his only object. The Object for the Church. This is_the only reason for t church, although it engaged with much else. Some people seem fo think that the chief object of a church is to have a minister get up and talk to | | people who can’t talk back. | hink that music is the Chief object | nd the extension of sacred music the one aim. Still others regard church as a social club which insures one's standing in the community. It none of these. The one and only s to be the messengers of God to the world. What is meant by this con_ eption of Jesus? Who are the lost ¢ that they are the out- casts whose names are not mentioned in polite society, the gubmerged tenth, the east siders, those who dwell in the dark_alleys and 3 of life. Scarce a thought is given by other men of their existence, but these are the ones God has always in mind. | These are the ones Jesus treats with | {enderness, sraciousness and sympa- thy. This wickedly perverse attitude of indifference should be gotten away from, for it is far from the Master's heart, The Meaning of “Lost.” But there are others more lost than these. . “Lost” means “apart from God.” And there are those far apart from God to be found in automobiles, in palaces, in the midst of weaiin, opu- lence, and luxury; they may be found on the church rolls and even in offices | of dignity and trust., These may be lost unless they are in close fellowship and sympathy with God. Everyone needs to take thought, lest he stray aside. The Duty of the Church. There are three parables which throw a flood of light upon this subject and which show the church’s duty. One the'parable of the lost coin. This may represent that class of society which is the Jeast lost. These are the vie tims of heredity and environment. No one is foolish enough to say that there was no coin there to lose. There was good gold, though out of its proper place, Everyone has some opportunity “even the heathen—and ff they are Jost through no fault of their own we are all the more bound to seek them. The second purable of the lost sheep represents probably the largest clas These are the pathetically self deceived who have way. Often they are brought up hristian homes. opportunity but they have thrown these away and strayed away over the desert and into the mountains. In- tead of the comfort and safety pic- tured in ut in cold und danger and the tender- and compassion of the Saviour leads him many weary miles in s 3 of these who have strayed away. parable of the prodigal son portrays a third, ¢ of society, those who are lost through their own wilful, head- trong, open-eyed disobedience. These must come to their senses before they can be saved. They must see i mistake and return to their father's nouse. All these classes can be saved. It must be done and it is our mission to do it. Take up the task even if the spirit of the-times seems against it. The Church is Not Decadent. One gets so tired of hearing that the church is decaying from so many discouraged men. It i3 not decaying— lost, t wandered in They have had every e that it was in our Lord's day. Like the man who was invited to the wedding feast and could not go because he had bought five yoke of oxen and must needs stay and prove them, so our 20th century friend has bought a new six cylinder car and must needs stay away from church to prove it. There there are those who find fault with the gospels. Not the real scholars who dig and delve to discover their real meanings—we take off our hats to these—but these quibbling minds, who are always splitting hairs and so losing the real message and who cannot see that the essential thing is the relation of the sheep to the shepherd. Is this too hard a mission Or are men too busy to take it up? If he does the same consequences will follow as they did in the case of Zacchaeus. He who a soul makes an epoch in human history. This may be accomplished by having Christ’s conception that the es- ntial necessity is to take your part nd place the church’s ~ mission. cour- hout it in Then all doubts will disappear, age will return and you will s en from the housetops reigns on high. FORMER PASTOR PREACHES. Rev. P. C. Wright Spoke on The Un- exercised Privilege. Rev. Peter C. Wright, pastor of the Gethsemane Baptist church of Phila- delphia, occupied his former pulpit in the Central Baptist church Sunday morning and evening. Both services were largely attended' and the mem- bers of the congregation gave Rev. Mr. Wright a warm welcome. The topic for his evening sermon was The Unexercised Privilege. Rev. Mr, Wright took as his text the words “Wahtsoever things are true, whatso- ever things are honorable, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report, if there be any virtue and any praise, think on these things.” The Right to Think. One of the greatest privileges of American citizenship, he sald, is the right of the individual to think for himself, One of the fundamental con- ditions of our government is this right to think as we please, and may God | forbid that this Jand shall ever see the ~ MISSION OF THE CHURCH the | Others | the | on and excuse for church attend- the forbidden places | is | the shepherd Psalm they are | their | that God | Broadway Addrmed ‘by Rev. day when this right ghall be taken! from the individual. And yet one won- | ders if in this realm where thought is' so free there is a danger that there will come a time when we shall cease to exercise this privilege, and at times | one wonders if we exercise this priv- ilege of thinking in religious things. In Turkey. there has been a remark- able development within the last few | years. The great east is seething with : ihe desire to think, and this desire is Dbeing fulfilled in the establishment of institutes of learning which are! springing up. Russian Poland is alive with the desire to be free; it is caught with the idea that man has the right | to think for himself. In spite of the | czar and his cohorts this desire will {never be broken and God will place ! Victory on the banner of these people who desire to think as they will. It is essential to think of God to establish the foundations of moral life |and with the foundations of moral life } |we have the foundations of Christian- | ity Things to Think On. We shall answer for the deeds done ! in the body. If It were only my life |that is influenced by thess deeds I| | might take it in my own hands and | |face my God. but it is not only my |1ife but the lives of those to follow me | which will be tainted by my wicked- | |ness. Men are not thinking about | | these things. The world and science | are teaching us that we do account for | | our sins, and if our hearts condemn us how much greater will be God's con- | demnation. If science and society | condemn us what will be our account- ability to God? | Men are not thinking of the future | !life, the larger portion of our exist- | ence, with the larger joys of our be- ing, greater glories of immortality, and as I see it, greater service. We are ed to this life to be. as the “I will raise_him up at God has bidden us think | of the future life. We have something to save or lose. We feel great respon- sibilities at times in this world, but ! is no responsibility so great as as to whether we lose or save etern Tet us exercise the privi- leze which God has given us and “think on these things.” REV.

The annual clam bake held by the Taftville Pinochle club Sunday at the Drawbridge was one of the largest and best that that organization has held. Sunday morning about 8oclock 109 members and invited friends of the club met at the postoffice on Front street and the 8.20 car carried the crowd to the New Haven station where they boarded the 9 o’clock train for the Drawbridge. Luncheon was served at noon and the ball game. played between the Married men and Single men of the club proved the at- tractive feature of the sports. After a hard fight the Single men carried off the victory by the score of 9 to 5. Adolphus Benoit and Will- iam Emmerson were the battery for the Married men and Tetreault and Joseph Fontaine did the work for the singles. There was no programme of athletic events but the men gathered in groups under the trees and passed the time acceptably. At four o'clock came the call for the best bake ever served by the club and it was wel- comed by 109 hungry men whose ap- petites had been sharpened by the invigorating air of Poquetanuck cove, About 6.20 o'clock the men gathered at the bridge and were picked up by the train due at Tafts shortly after seven o'clock. The _Benoit-Sullivan clambake club catered. The commit- tee in charge were J. B. Benoit, chair- man, Joseph Jodoin. Andrew Froh- mander, William Kendall, and Henry Tetreault, and they were compliment- ed on the success attained by their ef- forts to make this yvear's bake outshine all previous ones.
