The figures show that Connecticut does not need to worry over its gain in population. The births for 1912 were 29,039, an increase of 863 over the pre- vious year. Marriages in 1912 pum- bered 12,230, The deaths in 1912 were 77,315, or 229 less than in 1911, and the death rate of 14.9 was the lowest recorded Death rates from infec- tious diseases showed decreases. The report adds: “The growing popular- ity of our city hospitals and establish- ment of state sanatoria for care of tu- berculosis and other diseases has very much affected local statistics. For instance, persons contract typhoid in the country and are taken to city hos- pitals, where some die. No plan has vet been devised charging the non- resident deaths back to the town from which they come.” Causes of Deaths. In 1912 automobiles killed sons, of whom 43 were males; street cars killed 3, railroad cars 177, and other vehicles 35. There were 39 homicides, 206 suicides and 308 acci- dental deaths.

THE MODERN CONCEPTION OF THE KINGDOM. Address by Rev. J. W. Bixler Before Quarterly Meeting of the King’s Daughters. An address on The Modern Concep- tion of the Kingdom by Rev. James E. Bixler, D. D, of New London featured the regular quarterly meeting of the City Union of King’s Daughters, held Tuesday evening in Bushnell chapel, of the Central Baptist church. The president, Mrs. A. W. Jarvis presided and the meeting opened with the sing- ing«of the hymn, Onward Christian Soldiers. Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D. led the devotional exercises and spoke briefly in commendation of the work of the organization. The secretary, Mrs. Blackledge, read the roll by circles. A solo, My Redeemer and My Lord was beautifully rendered by Miss Elsie Brand accompanicd by Miss Ella M. Potter. Mrs. Jarvis introduced Dr. Bixler who gave a fine address, tracing the history of the various conceptions of the coming of Christ'’s kingdom on earth up to the present. The changes of the present age, he said, brought our conception of the King- dom back to Christ'’s own _teaching. This great Kingdom is not the church but works through the church into so- clety, politics, the schools, industry and the home. It turns industrial strife into a realization of the great brotherhood. It makes life full of blessing and helpfulness everywhere in the spirit of divine will. In the progress of that Kingdom you and I can have a real part. The new con- ception helps us to see ourselves workers with him, that our work has significance and value to him in bring- ing about the great result. We dream of the time when humanity will come into its own with physical force sub- dued to service for society, with no more disease or need or drudgery bondage, with possession and a spirit strong enough to rule itself. Then will be answered the prayer “Thy Kingdom Come on Barth as It is in Heaven.” Miss Brand pleased with her render- |ing of Allah by Chadwick. Resolutions were passed thanking those who had contributed to the even- ing's programme and a social hour followed, refreshments being served by { the entertainment committee. UNCAS BANK OFFICERS.
