Boys and Gil in Force The urday ost walked in Norwich Sat- ning, although a bit previous, as All Hllows’ eve, to give Hallowe'en its full title, did not kappen until Sun- , which was the 81st of the month. Masquerades, with witches carrying their far-famed broomsticks, pumpkin ines and apple bobbing, were held in 'a number of Norwich homes, much to the enjoyment of the young folks, and some of the older folks, too, while superstitions and Customs wers carried _out otherwise. Bonfires, to chase awey the evil spirits, were no- ticed here and there, while a number of housekeepers hurried to the front door in answer to the loudly ringing bell, the prank of some boy and girl ‘out for the fun.” Weird noises, the hanging of gates on_ church steeples and other of the rowdyisms that have markel Hallowe'en in past vears seem- ed to have lost a good deal of; interest for the small boy. and there Were but one or two complaints received by the local police. False faces peered out of the darkness all over the city streets, while some of the boys took occasion to appear in their sisters’ attire, and vice versa. Hallowe'en, like the Fourth of July, is rapidly toning down to noiseless and sane, and gates swung in their accustomed places Sunday morning, while fences remained undis- turbed. WEDDING.

There was a small run on the Sav- ings Bank of New London on Saturday morning. It was largely by foreigners with small accounts, and all were paid 2s fast as they presented their books., The bank is able to pay $1.30 on the ollar and the officials could give no reason, other than idle yumors, why the run should have started.

M. C. A. interna- tional committee, were the features ‘of the mass meeting for men held Sun- dey_afternoon at 3.80 o'clock in the Y. M. C._A. auditorium. Mr. Clinton and Mr, Rugh have both seen foreign service in the far east and they are of the opinion that America has not only a responsibility in China, but also a it opportunity. Fhe mocting was led by General Secretary Edwin Hill and opened with a hymn. A short selectipn of Scrip- ture was read by Rev. George H. Strouse, pastor of the First Baptist church, after which Rev. Joel B, Slo- cum, D. D., pastor of the Central Bap- tist church, offered prayer. Responsibility and Opportun Mr. Rush, who-is a secretary of the foreign department of the internation 8l ¥ M C. A committes, was first introduced by Secretary Hill. Mr. Rugh in his opening remarks referred to the statement of a noted statesman who is quoted as saying that in future years America and China will be the two great powers of the world, Mr. Rugh said that it is true that Amer- jca and China are the coming leading powers of the world, but he did not speak of “power” in the military sense. America hes a great respon- i sibility in this connection, he said. America is teaching the world that nations can live together in peace. In speaking of the characteristics bf the Chinese he referred to them as men of culture, of ability and as a very efficient race in general. China is looking forward to America, not so much for money as for ideas, and everyone on the North American con- tinent has a responsibilit; in the spreading of Christianity throughout that great land. Speaking of the need of workers Mr. Rugh told of one small Y. M. C. A. building having 2,200 men on the membership roll and of an- other . C. A. building in the same city having a membership of over 2000 boys. The educational classes have a membership of 1,200. This is In but one city and there are hun- dreds of other cities with very large populations, which have no Y. M. C. A. buildings at all. The New China. Mr. Clinton, who was then intro- Quced, spoke of China as the New China. e spoke of winning the Chinese over to Christianity as a_dif- ficult proposition. In forming a Y. M. M. A. a sign was hung_up on_th building, reading, Chinese Young Men's Christian Association. Mr. Clinton was told that if he struck out the word “Christian” he could get prac- tically all the men in the city to join. This he refused to do, and convineed the man who suggested the idea that Told to Norwich Congregations by Y. M. C. A. Speakers— Tell of Opportunity and Responsibility in the Far East— America and China to be the Coming Leading Powers of the World But Not in Military Sense. pose of enlisting men to hel The burden. He is convinced people in the world have never heard of Jesus Christ. His hope and prayer is that the need will be seen and that A gentleman in the audience volun- tarily arose at the conclusion of Mr. Clinton's talk and safd that he has a son who has been a missionary in China for 12 yea: In a recent let- ter home the son said that if he had a thousand lives to live he would live them all for the boys of China. After the meeting a number of those present “availed themselves of the op- portunity of glancing at pictures in the parlors, showing the nature of the work that is being donme in China to- day. At the Churches. During the day both speakers wers also heerd in several of the local pul- pits, interesting good sized congrega- tions with their inspiring messages that were given with great earnest- ness. Mr. Clinton spoke at Park Congre- gational church at the morning_ser- vice, his topic being Christian Work Among the Students of the Orfent. Mr. Rugh filled the pulpit at the Cen- tral Baptist church at the mérning service and also addressed the City Bible Jass for Men at its noon ses- sion. For the evening service at the Cen tral Baptist church, the pastor, Rev Dr. J. B. Slocum, gave up the ser. mon that he had announced and in- vited both Mr. Clinton and Mr. Rugh to speak at the service. They both accepted the invitagion and there was a good sized congregation to hear them. Mr. Clinton spoke first=in a brief way as he was to leave to speak at_the First Baptist chureh. Mr. Rugh gave a stereopticon lec- ture in which he showed about 60 views, principally of China, as it was before modern idead had begun to be adopted. Fis recital of conditions and needs and the sacrigces that are made and the devotion shown by the work- ers in the field .thrilled his hearers. 1 ¥. M. C. A. JUNIORS IN . <HALLOWE'EN FROLIC.

Enthusiasm marked the evening, for the 42 boys present entered heartily into the games ar- ranged by Physical Director O. H. Nickerson, and the Hallowe'en spirit prevailed_throughout. About 7 o'clock the two score boys filed into the gymnasium m the locker rooms, some fantasticiily gress- ed and nearly all carrying jack-o’-lan- terns. The effect was unique as the lights in the gym were shaded with red crepe paper. The first number on the programme was “seeing the ghost:” Five boys at a time were guided through a myste- rious and dark passageway by Boys' Secretary J. H. Ely, and they saw it all right, ‘as was evidenced by tne lusty vells of the boys as they seram- bled back into the gymnasium and— safety.
