The service opened with the hymn, Solid Rock and then the boy musi- rendered on the ’cello, Sradow reverie. After the singing of Aurelia he was this time on the cornet. e title of the se- Jection was, Sweet Spirit Hear My {Prayer. The pastor read the serip- ‘ture selection, Amos 4: 6-13 and this was followed by Master Harry's third number, this being a ‘cello solo, Near- eh, My God, to Thee. The pastor’s sermon was listened tg with unusual interest on the part of the 500 people in the con; . At the annual alumni dinner of Amherst college with more than a thousand present, “Preparedness” was the theme that ran through most of the speeches, said Rev. Dr. Slocum. Represtntatives were there from 16 states and from Canada. Gov. Charl 8. Whitman of New York, the princ- ipal speaker sald among a great many other sensible things: “It {8 idle to talk of peace in terms of nen-resistance. Passions have been loosed that will threaten for years to come, and in the troubled future that stretches out before us, the sanest peace is’such preparedness for nation- al defense as will inspire possible ag- gressors with respect and with cau- tion.” The president who has been a conservative man, from the first, significantly has thought that pre- paredness was so important and the need so immanent, that he has lately made & great trip into the middle west in the interest of his convictions. The remocratic congress is soon to take up the matter and the president was de- termined to learn first-hand the feel- ings of the people. He could not have chosen a better part of the country to do his missionary work. Ordinarily we think the East as conservative and the middle west as progressive and the far west as rather progressive. The facts are that while the Fast s reasonably convervative, the middle west is the real thing in conservatism. The president found great crowds and great enthusiasm and the papers report a_great many converts to his scheme for more adequate defense. The fact remains, however, that the middle west has not gone wild over the idea. But the discussion has gone far cnough to gather from the leading pa- pers of the country that the American people as a whale (and the exceptions I believe are not numerous or power- tul), desire something more adequate | in_the way of national defense. In one of his recent speeches the president said: hcrels something that the Ameri- can people love better than they love peace.

He refers Germany as a country that was pre- pared not only in a military way but prepared industrially by the organiza- tion of all her industrial resources. ‘We have some soldiers and some guns, says Mr. Palmer, but it has not occurred to us as a nation to co-ordl- nate our industrial resources, so that they would be ready, on demand, resist any invasion of States. Then Mr. Palmer calls attention the naval preparation of England, who had ready a year's supply of coal and every vessel in her great navy ready to strike a tan hour’s notice. And back of this readiness was a great organ- ization of merchant marine and all kinds of supplie This was not so true of England's army and in this war England and France, too, have pald a costly price for lack of immediate preparation. England and France had been fully war had prepared, 1 doubt if this started at all. ‘Then Mr. Palmer recommends that should make is to do everything we can that will not take a single man out of eivil life, but merely put him into a system the kind of preparation we of industrial preparedness.

We make machinery take the place of men we The lesson of this war its soldiers as we do. in our factories, should at war. is the value of machinery. and therefore Before bringing his sermon to a close Rev. Dr. Slocum called attention to the religious application of the question as suggested by the text, Amos 4: Prepare to meet thy God. This me: sage is one of terror or of blessedness according as we are unprepared prepared. God through Amos is call- ing the people to task because they have not heeded his various warnings and now the last call has come, “Pre- pare to.meet thy God.” LEASES PERKINS BLOCK FOR BOARDING HOUSE George Letender in Line for Coming Growth of City.

Smith of Hartford and Corporation Counsel Joseph T. Fanning of this city. Judge Smith of the superior court bench of the state is an eloquent and witty As a former mayor of Hartfe he was called upon to speak on a great many occasions, during his occupancy of that position, and his reputation as an orator extended to all parts of the state. Mr. Fanning, who s 0 be the other speaker, is one who can always be depended upon to give an address that will be interesting and Instructive. Following the business meeting, the members of the assembly convened in social session and the council chamber was thrown open to all the members of the order who were in the rooms for the purpose of listening to an address upon Rubber: Its Development and ses, by Herbert H. O'Neill of New London. The members were unanimous in saying that it was one of the most interesting and instructive talks which the members have had the pleasure of hearing in the assembly room. Another visitor at the meeting was Joseph H. Dorsey, a native of Middle- town, Conn., but who has for some years past been a resident of Delevan, Wis. Mr. Dorsey is a member of For. est City council, No. 3, of Middletown, and received his fourth degree at Bridgeport in 1913. He entertained the members with a short address on the progress which the order is making in the middle west and the enthusiasm with which the members throughout that section of the country endeavor to promote the principles of Columbi- anism. to at 1 to to to e MILK INSPECTOR IS AFTER MILK MEN 23 Milkmen who have been slow about taking out with the milk inspector their registered 1916 license are about due for a sharp call from Dr. D. J. Shahan, the milk inspector. January 1st was the time when the licenses were to be renewed but many have been forgetful and are not yet pro- vided with the licenses which the law prescribes that they shall carry, one on each side of their cart. A good proportion of the 40 milk- men who sell in the city are liable to prosecution under_the ~law without further warning, Dr. Shahan said on Sunday evening, because they have so far neglected to get their licenses for 28| this year.

Alling, of Norwich, took place Saturday evening, at §.30, at the home of the bride’s sister, Mrs. James L. Dowsey, at Manhasset, L. L The bride was given in marriage by her brother, William A. Coote. Syd- ney B. Alling, brother of Mr. Alling, was best man. The decorations at the home were of smil and Jonquils. ed by the bride's father, Re James Coote, of Portland, Conn. Miss Coote's attendant was her sis- ter, Miss Anna Coote. Her dress was of ‘green and gold changeable taffeta and she carried a basket of Ophelia roses. The flower girls were Misses Dorothy and Gladys Dowsey, little nieces of the bride. Their dresses were white crepe de chine, trimmed with yellow rose buds.

Local Troops Gathered at Second Con- tional Anaiversary. A good sized representation of the Boy Secouts of the city attended the scout union service in the Second Con. Eregational church on Sunday after- noon at 4 o'clock. The service was. held in comnection niversary of the Boy Scouts of Amer~ h::k which is being observed all this = ) The local scout troops gathered &t Union square, in uniform, between .30 and 3.45 o'clock, and a fe wminutes before 4 o'clock ‘they lined up in twos and, headed by Old Glory, marched up the hill to the church, witere members. of the local scout council were drawn up to receive them. The scouts march- ed into the church and formed a line on either side of the main aisle. They remained standing until the members of the council were seated. The opening. sentences were led by Rev. Herbert J. Wyckoff, pastor of the church, the congregatiin joining in t! responses. A Scout's Song, written fw!vflcllll’ for the service by Rev. Mr. 'yekoff, and set to the music of St. Gertrude, was tlien sung. Scout Commissioner Benjamin M. Bruce told of the object of the service and nnnounced that there would be & rally meeting- in the town hall on Tuesday evening at § o'clock. The ob- ject of the rally is to hear the reading of the greeting from the national Boy Scout president. Commissioner Bruce requested the scouts to see to it that the American ag i3 displayed from their homes throughout _the starting Tuesday. The scripture selections, Psalms 15: 1-15, and 27: 1-6, were read by Nathan A. Gibbs, president of the local Boy Scout council. A Gentleman Unafrald was the gub- ject of the address delivered by Rev. Mr. Wyckoff, who said that one of the marks of a gentleman is a fine sense of honor that makes him trustworthy. A second mark of a gentelman is loy- alty. A loyal man is a man who not only says he will do a thing but sticks to his promise. Another thing that fits in with these characteristics of a gentleman is a full sense of obligation. One of the signs of the true gentleman is that he doesn't want to eee things wasted. This applies to the home, the schools, public buildings, books, etc. Another of the fine characteristics of a gentleman is his consideration for the feelings of others. When you are courteous, you have the manners of a gentleman. In his concluding remarks Rev. Mr. Wyckoft defined a gentleman unafraid as the one who knows that nothing outside of his own life can take his honor.
