WORLD’S MOST INTERESTING ASSEMBLY OF PEOPLE Centained Within the Vast Borders of Russia—The Letts. (Special to The Bulletin.) ‘Washington, D. C., May 16— Russia contains within its vast borders prob- ably the world’s most interesting as- sembly of peoples and fragments of peoples; peoples, not as in tho Uni- ted States melted to a certain uniform ground-tane of character, forced to lose much of the peculiar under the pres- sure of a more complex, more highly developed social organization, but peo- ples still distinctively peoples, preserv- ing in themselyes the _fascinating markings handed down from tribal days, when a journey between coun- tries’ was an undertaking, and a jour- ney between nations fell only to the lot of the soldier of fortune, the di lomat, the statesman, and the fore- most of_artists and scholars. “Among these interesting, still per- sistently individual peoples of Russia, the Letts, the indwellers of the Baltic Provinces, whose flelds are now once more the scene of invasion and battle captivate the imagination and reflec- tion through the mystery of their ori- gin, the romance of their history, and the' peculiarities of their present rela- tionships to mighty Russia. The Letts are a branch of the Lithuanian nation, a Slavonic division whose past in the marshy swamps of Lithuania lies as deeply hidden as the mystic ritual of the Druids. Lithuania was once a great kingdom, later an element of the unfortunate Polish nation, and now a part of the States of Russia and Prus- sia. The Letts, a subdivision of this people, haye survived as its most dis- tinctive representatives.” Thus begins the bulletin issued to- day by the National Geographic S ciety, which deals with the native peasant population, the patient, long- suffering farmers, fiishermen and small tradesmen among whom Russian and German armies are contesting for the mastery of the regions around the eastern elbow of the Baltic. The state- ment continues: “The Borussians, whose mame per- sists in ‘Prussia ,/survive as the mod- ern Prussians, or, at least, as an im- portant element ‘that has gone into the make-up of Prussia’s citizenry. They, however, are lost as a lithuanian tribe; have been thoroughly assimi- lated to a modern amalgamated type that feels itself a unit and not a com- posite, that feels itself more nearly akin to the German than to the Sla- vonian. The Lithuanian of the inter- ior Russian Lithuanian provinces feels a kinship with the Pole, whose politi- cal fortunes he shared so long. He is beginning to feel a kinship with the Pole, whose political fortunes he shar- ed so long. He is begioning to feel a kinship with the Russian, whose for- tunes have now become his own. The Lett, on the other hand, the Lithu- anian tribesman of the Baltic Prov- inces where the German invaders are now marching end fighting, still feels himself an element apart. “The Lett is taciturn, morose, little given to welcoming the stranger. He dwells apart, not as the communis- tic Russian in villages whose houses closes press one another. The Lett prescrves his own tongue, traditions and dreams, and remains in this twen- tieth century more than half a wor- shipper of Nature and a believer in omens and black craft. The old gods whom he cherished and reverenced the longest, whom he sought long after Europe all around him had accepted the teachings of Christ, still exert an influence wpon him, still survive for him In a thousand superstitions, even though he is as devout as any of the other present-day Christians. “The Lett was Christianied by the sword wielded in the hands of the Ger- mans and the Swedes. Shortly after the year 1.200, a religious order, known as the Order of the Sword Bearers, was formed, and began the process of converting the inhabitasts of the Bal tic Provinces. Members of the order wore white mantles with a red cross on the ehoulder. They were recruited largely in Westphalia and Saxony, and, with thelr superior weapons, they had little difficulty in overrunning th Lett provinces. The Letts were di: gessed of the land; German land- and merchants came, outposts of the Hanseatic League were strength- ened and the Lett sank into serdom. “There are more than 2,000,000 Letts. ‘Well-bulli, of average height, seldom tall; the face elongated and the feature finely cut; very fair hair, keen blue eyes and delicate skins are among the external characteristics that_distin- guish a Lett from a Pole or a Russian. They are highly imaginetive people, from their ranks have come some o ‘Rusaia's gitted artiots; They pos sess an immense treasure of folk- songs, and many wonderful legends, born in the dark of the swampy for- = of Aimeat Tithmania An inspiring address was made by D, Willard Lyon of the international committee of the Young Men's Chris- tian association at Trinity Methodist iscopal church on Sunday evening, ‘when the 30th anniversary of.the Nor- ‘wich association was observed in a un- fon eervice of the churches. James L. Case, who 1is beginning his fifth term as president of the local association, led the meeting, and after the singing of the opening hymn Rev. Frederick ‘W. Coleman, the pastor of the church, read the scripture selection, and C. K. Flanders, the first general secretary of the Norwich Y. M. C. A, offered prayer. President Case in a brief address said that 30 years of life for any or- ganization is something of a record. The work of the association ths past year, he said, measures up very favor- ably’ with that of previous years and he expressed his appreciation of the co-operation given by the people of Norwich. The opportunitles of the future are ever greater than they have been in the past, and Mr. Case said he hoped all would especiaily remember. the a: sociation in their prayers. General Secretary’s Report. & In closing, Mr. Case announced that Secretary Hill would read his annual report as rendered at the annual meet- ing of the Y. M. C. A, held Friday evening. In part Secretary HIill's report of the year’s activities follows: If ‘we were asked at this time to ex- press our feelings in a single word, I am sure we would choose the word Gratitude, for truly all through the year just closed we have been enabled to solve our problems, to surmount our difficulties, and to achieve a good degree of success, for all of which we render unto our Heavenly Father ceaseless praise and with sincere hearts and honest lips we can say “The Lord hath done great things for us, whereof we are glad.” We are indeed grateful to our faithful pres- ident and directors and to all who have served on the various commit- tees, for surely without the services of these good men we could not re- port the results of the past twelve months. 'We are most certainly grate- ful to that organization known as the ‘Women’s auxiliary and we have been constantly inspired and made glad by their unselfish devotion and willing service after contributing greatly to the efficiency of the work. Religious. In these days when we hear the statement that men no longer care much for religious things it is refresh- ing to note that not omnly in the churches, but in our association work as well, men give splendid evidence of their interest in the higher things of life and this interest has been man- ifested, not only in the various meet- ings in our bullding but in the noon shop meetings where the noble men of toil have been eager for the timely messages which have helped them solve the problems of their lives, and even the men conflned in the local jail have listened with marked attention to the gospel talks given to them by our representatives. Physical. Close akin to the soul is the body of a man, and therefore we have been pressing the battle for a stronger phy- sical manhood and consequently our gymnasium has been a busy place dur- ing the winter months. We have many opportunities during the spring and summer for outdoor work and we hope more and more to take advan- tage of them. Social, Experience demonstrates more and more that approach to the average young man is most successfully made along social lines, and therefore the committee in charge of this import- ant_department of our work has en- deavored to develop the social spirit and the record of the vears work in- dicates the desree of success achieved, We can truthfully say the spirit of “make yourself at home” is preva- lent .in our building. Educational. Our efforts along educational lines have been successful as far as we have gone; the unusually fine course of en- tertainments gave to very large audi- ences much pleasure and profit of an artistic and educational character. Boys, The hope of the continuance and development of our institution lies very largely in the boy: this is true not only of the association, but of the city as " well, therefore Norwich has' no greater ‘asset than her boys, and we do well to use every possible effort to mould aright the lives of those who in the near future will control to so large an extent the destinies of this munielpality, Our work for the boys has been particularly gratifying during the past year. While we must plan for larger things for the bovs as the years go by, we cannot measure fully up to our responsibility until we have an entirely separate department for this important work and this can only be realized when we are blessed ~with a new building. Our Needs, Bvery growing organization is con- tinually reaching out for greater things and this® process of reaching out creates certain needs., Our great- est need for the coming year is a lasge number of men with a vision of our opportunities and responsibilities and who are willing to be of real service to their fellows. Of course we recog- nize the need of a mew building, but while we are waiting and hoping for this let us do our utmost in and with our present home. We need to make what we may call our “living,” the lobby, more attractive, as first im- pressions are lasting. Our locker room equipment needs attention and as fast as possible we should replace the 0ld ‘wooden lockers with steel ones. Our shower bath system will probably need some overhauling that the best possible results may be secured, for a Zood bath system is one of our best physical assets. It is hoped that the money raising campaign will make it possible for the committee to meet the above requirements. Our Appreciation. To every individual and firm who has centributed financially to the sup- port of our work the past year we ex- press sincere thanks and trust they will be satisfied with the results made possible by their gifts. We deeply ap- preciate every assistance during the year from whatever source and espe- clally are we grateful for the co-oper- ation of the pastors who have re- sponded so kindly to our calls. We ex- tend thanks to the management of the local newspapers for their splen- did co-operation in keeping the public informed of our activities. Fellow members, the needs of an- other association year have been re- corded, and they can never be erased; we cannot, if we would, blgt out the mistakes we have e, mor would we claim the credit for the good things lished, for in the best sense 5 G0t ‘alons belongs ‘the Ele-v, wus 30TH ANNIVERSARY OF Y. M. C. A. Observed With Union Meeting at Trinity Methodist Church— Work in the Past Year—D. Willard Lyon Spoke Upon * Achievements Through Y. M. C. A. Work in China. MAY 17, 1915 We will, with steady step, march into the opening year with optimistic hearts and with an spthusiastio faith in God an_optimism ‘will not down, amd a faith that will not waver and in this spirit we will go forward with a vision that will be satisfled with nothing less than a year of real ser- vice to the men end boys of Norwich and vicinity, In introducing Mr. Lyon as the speaker of the evening Mr. Case spoks of his (Mr. Lyon's) connection with the international committee of the ¥. M. C. A. of which he holds the office of secretary. Every nation of the world is more accessible now than in the past, said Mr. Lyon, but the world is not living as 'if_each nation was a nelghbor to the other. We have come to the point Where all the lines of progress hav forced us to live together, and yet It does not appear as if we know how. We are today facing a challengs that ‘we must answer. We must choose this day whom we shall serve. On ‘ome hand is.conflict, on the other co-opera- tion. In the last analysis it is e choice of having heaven on earth or hell on earth. We must meet our obligations by carrying the gospel of God's love and the application of the gospel Wherever we find them. Mr. Lyon then went on to tell of his work in China. Twenty years ago he was selected as the first representative of the Y. M. C. A. to China, aad his instructions were simply to do what he could for the boys of that country. In these twenty years wonderful changes have taken piace. The rock believed impenetrable suddenly and without warning gave way. en this rock gave way the students were accessible. It was seen that they were ready to be taught. Thousands rushed to Japar. to learn what they could there. China today is being permeated with the truth of the gospel. Jesus Christ's message is more willingly heard in that country than ever had been dreamed of. The Y. M. C. A. in China, as in other countries, is self managed and self sus- taining. In Shanghal the sum of $33,- 000 is annually raised for_curren: ex- penses of the Shanghai Y. M. (. A. budget. There is no organization which has the opportunities of the Y. M. C. A. in China, said Mr. Lyon, and there is no organization so eccessible to China If the Y. M. C. A. does not d> the things expected of it, some oths- or- ganization will be calied upon. The M. C. A. in this country must be wil ing to give money to put the men needed in the field and to help put up the needed buildings. After the closing hymn, Rev. Mr. Coleman offered prayer and pro- nounced the benediction. The musical programme was ar- ranged especially for the amniversary service. Y. M. C. A. booklets entitled Annual Dividends for the Year Ending Apri 30, 1915, were distributed at the doors. JUDAS WAS FIRST. Rev. F. J. Kuster Cites Traitor as First to Receive a Bad Communion. Continuing his sermons on the Blessed Eucharist, Rev. Francis J. Kuster spoke Sunday at St. Patrick's church on the sacrilege of a bad com- munion. In instituting the Blessed Eucharist, Christ said, He who shall ekt of My flesh and drink of My blood shall not know death forever. Christ ‘having given Himself in the Eucharist for our spiritual food, the enormity of receiving communion unworthily is ap- parent. The first bad communion, the preacher said, was that of Judas. ‘With strong simlles and convincing arguments the speaker impressed the lessons of his sermon. The offertory selection, Millard's Ave Maria, was sung by Miss Florence Northrop with notable smoothness, ev- idence of reserve power and ability in tone-sustaining. FUNERALS Willard H. Palme Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock the funeral of Willard H. Palmer was held from the parlors of Church and Allen with Rev. Joseph F.

Champlin-Mabrey. A beautiful and impressive church wedding was that of Miss Helen Rie- deil Mabrey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Louis Mabrey of Broadwey, and Ernest Gifford Champlin of Syracuse, N. Y., formerly of this city which took place Saturday evening at seven o'clock at the Central Baptist church before a large and fashionable gath- ering of invited friends and relatives. The church had been beautifully and artistically decorated for the octa- sion by Geduldig, with masses of palms used as a background on the pulpit platform and a floral bank of white before which the bridal party stood. The section of seats reserved for the families and invited guests was Toped off with white satin rib- bon and designated by bouquets of cheice cut flowers, Before the ceremony Organist Her- bert T. Miller rendered the following programme: ‘Wedding Music ..... . Dudley Buck Grand March and Chorus ..Donizetti Excerpts from Opera Oberon. .

The bride was exquisitely gowned in white satin duchesse trimmed with quilling of the same material _with waist of georgette crepe and fillet lace with orange blossoms. Her white tulle veil was caught up with orange blossoms and she carried a _shower bouquet of brides roses and lilies of the valley. The color scheme of the rainbow wedding was carried out in the dresses of the bridesmaids who were gowned in Dresden taffeta with caps of gold lace. They each car- ried a basket of marquerites. The maid of honor was charming in her gown of Nile green tulle over ac~ cordion pleated liberty silk with cap of silver lace. She carried a shower bouguet of swansonias. After the ceremony at the church a reception was held from 8 to 10 o'clock at the home of the bride, No. 57 Broadway. The bride and groom ret ceived in the large bay window and were acsisted by Mr. and Mrs, Louis Mabrey and Mrs. Ada Backus, mother of the room. The bride’s mother was gowned in black brocaded chiffon over ocean blue taffeta with lace trim- mings and the mother of the groom wore a_becoming gown of black spapgled net over white accordion pledted liberty satin. During the reception popular opera selections were rendered by the Harmony orchestra. of five pieces, The house decorations were by Reuter, masses of palms filling the bay win- dow, the mantels completey covered with Toses and marguerites while roses and cut flowers were advantage- ously used about the rooms.

There were in- numerable pieces of solid silver, cut glass, and rare bric-a-brac, dainty china handsome paintings and meny other valuable tokens of regard, in- cluding a goodly sum in gold. The groom gave his best man gold cuff links and to his ushers handsome s3arf pins. The bride’s gifts to her bridesmaids were pearl laviliers.
