The Christmas entertainment of the Sunday school of the Federated church was held New Year's night in the church with a large attendance.

Through the courtesy of the Porteous & Mitchell company, Santa Claus was with the children for the evening and distrib- uted the gifts. Each child was given a gift from the school and also a gift from his or her Sunday school teacher and all were remembered with a box orange. There were also boxes of candy and oranges for the eight members of the cradle roll 4 and for the shutins of the church. H. 1.

A. Scott com- pany of New London for the construc- tion of the sub-structure of the steam- ship terminal at Bast New London would be signed within a week. While the wcott company id already at work making preliminary tests, this is only preliminary to the driving of the per- manent spiles, which will be commenc- ed as soon as the contract is signed. ‘The cause of the delay since awarding of the contract to the Scett company is the lease which is to be ef- fected with the New London Northern and Central Vermont Railroad com- pany. To the uninitiated the execution of this agreement between the railroad companies and the state of Connecti- cut doubtless seems a comparatively simple matter, but so many legal points arose that much careful consid- ation was deemed necessary., Event- ually Attorney General Light was calied into conference with Secretary of State Phillips. At Tuesday’s ses- sion all technicalities were adjusted satisfactorily and all that now remains to be done is the signing of the lease, | which will require but a few days in forwarding it from place to place. By the terms of the lease from the New London Northern Railroad com- pany to the Central Vermont Rail company the date of expiration Dec. 1, 1990. The state of Connecticut by the terms of its lease secures the property included in the terminal site for the same period, with the privilege of purchase upon the expiration of (he lease. The state is to pay a rental of $1,000 per vear. The fact that in signing this le: ase the | the state assnmes a considerable financial liability when the length of lfe of the agreement is taken into consideration made it desirabie that due caré should be exercised in the drafti of" the lease and its possible legal effects in after years. As stat- ed, these points have now all been sat- isfactorily adjusted and nothing now stands in the wa; of the terminal construction save d‘;e affixing of signa- tures to the document, which all par- | ties at interest stand ready to do. Tuesday’'s meeting was attended by | all the members of the sub-committee, which consists of Chairman Thomas F Noone of Rockville, Secretary I Chappell of New London and “m!am H, Cadwell of New Britain, together with Resgident Engineer Waldo E. Clarke. The work of terminal will doubtless attract many spectators to site. ployed will be the driving parallel rows of piles 100 feet apart | out into the river for a distance ot 1,000 feet. The tops of these piles are even with the surface of the river at mean low tide. On these will be | buiit granite retaining walls to hold ; the filled area of the pier. 1 Riprap is built around the pil support on either side. For a di of 50 feet on each side of the granite walls creosoted piles -will forR the foundation for the surface and super- structure of the pier. { Possibly some of the children who will watch the building of the termin- railroads and the years imagine be the lease with the purchase outright by the state hence. 1t is interesting to vaguely what the conditions will | at that time. $QUARING ACCOUNTS. Topic for Address by Rev. J. H. Den- nis at Watch Night Service. A watch night meeting, with a three- fold phase, was held on Wednesday | evening at Mt. Calvary Baptist church. It had the largest attendance in years, The early part of the evening was given to prayer and song. At 10 o'clock the pastor, Rev, J, H. Dennis, arose and announced a hymn, and the regular opening followed. Then he spoke from the text Lev, 25: 9-10, The Year of Jubilee. He said that this took place every 50th year, which meant a squaring up, not only pro- claiming liberty to the servants and | slaves, but to the poor, oppressed stranger and all the inhabitants, and even squaring up their own lives, But the Christian’s jubilee should be eacn day. However, let it be once a year. It gives chance to reflect and square up the ills, neglects and broken Vows, {hanking God for his mercies of the past. How busy are societies, organ- ons and business concerns aightening their accounts. What is the object They wish to enter the new year with !‘reedom having a cor- rect, pleasing and hclpfu] report. What of the visible, invisible and everlasting report? Should it not be correct? At the close of this service the tes- timonial meeting was held until 11.55, and the comgregation knelt while Rev. Mr. Dennis led in prayer until the death of 1912 and the birth of 1914. Arising ard greeting each other, the congregation joyfully started for home. SOBERLY, JUSTLY, GOODLY. Good Way to Live During 1914, Rev. T. A. Grumbly Tells Congregation at St. Patrick’s New Year’s Morning. Beginning with mass at 5.30 Thurs- day morning, read at St Patrick’s church by Reyv. Myles P. Galvin, hun- dreds of members of the parish began the new year well by assembling in the church for the commemoration of the Feast of the Circumcision. mass at 7 o'clock was said by the rec- tor, Rev. John H. Broderick. At 8 Rev Thomas A. Grumbly celebrated high mass, the regular choir singing, the solo portions being well sustained by | Mrs. Frank L. Farrell In wishing the large congregation a Happy New Year, Rev. Father Grum-! bly quoted from the day's epistle, | which he had just read, in which St Paul, writing to Titus, ii, 11-15, says “We should live soberly and justly and goodly in this world, looking for the | blesesd hope and coming of the glory of the great God and our Saviour, Jesus Christ.” He took it to mean, he said, that those present intended live the model life which St. Paul de- fines during the coming year, as the fact of their attendance at mass on the opening day of 1914 was an earnest of their good will and worthy resolutions. | This intention could be best carried out by continuing prompt attendance seeking (God’s grace through frequent reception of the sac- raments.
