WHEN CHRIST RETURNS Subject of Address by Mr. Abbott on Sunday Evening. The stereopticon lecture given at the Y. M.'C. A. hall Sunday evening was of great interest. The lecture was ii- lustrated throughout. Mr. Abbott said in_substance: “God made this world perfect and tiful garden God placed our first par- ents therein and told them to be “fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth. Gen. 1:26. It was God' plan that this world should be inhab- ited by a holy race of beings. It may be surprising to you to know that God’s plan will vet be carried out. “Lucifer, once a beautiful angel, but who was cast out of heaven because he rebelled against the government of God, came to this world and tempted the father and mother of the human race. Adam and Bve did not endure the trial, but sinned and disobeyed God. Then they were sent forth from the garden of Eden. “From the time Adgm and Eve sin- ned, wickedness increased among, the inhabitants of the earth until ‘God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoushts of his heart was only evil continually. Gen. Then God sent a warning mes- sasge to the world through His servant Noah, calling all to repentance. But the world continued on in its wicked- ness, until God’s Spirit ceased to strive With man, and then the world was destroyed by a flood. Only Noah and his family were saved from among the inhabitants of the earth. “Again following the flood sin and wickedness began to increase. The pations of earth went into odilatry. But all down through the ages God has had a faithful few who sought to obey Him. “After our first parents sinned a plan of redemption was formed where- by man might be saved from sin, and finally be restored to his former con- dition. In the fullness of time, Christ. the center of this great plan, came to this world to demonstrate that man could live a perfect life throuzh the power of God, and then He himself at the close of his ministry made a sac- rifice for the human race. We have not been bought or redeemed with Zold and siiver, ‘but with the precious blood of Christ.” But before ascending to heaven af- ter his resurrection, Christ told his disciples, ‘if 1 go away to prepare a place for you I will come again to re- ceive you unto myself, that where I wm there you may be also’ John 14: 1-3 The angels told His disciples just following his ascension that Jesus would return in like manner as they saw Him ascend. When Christ returns to this earth then will our redemption bé completed. All who have nccepted Him as their Saviour, and_sousht to obey His com- mandments will be given a home in the kingdom of God. Peter savs, ‘This earth and the works _therein will be burned up., 2 Peter 2:10. This world will be cleansed by fire at the last day. Sin and all its results will be foréver done away with, “Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for a new heavens and a new carth, wherein dwelleth righteous- ness’ 2 Peter 3:13. God's plan will finally be carried out. The saints re- deemed from this earth, having been iven tmmortality and eternal life, will inhabli the new earth. The revised version reads, ‘A renewed earth’ This earth, restored to its former condition, perfect and beautiful, is to be given to the saints of the Most High. Then will be falfilled st’s promise, ‘Blessed are the meck, for they shall inherit the earth’ Matt 5:5. The earth renewed. restored to its Edenic beauty, with the holy eity New Jerusalem as its capital will be the reward of the righteous. Next Sunday evening the subject of the lecture will be, The Revelation of St John the Divine—A Misnomer. Is 1t 'a Revelation? A stereopticon song service will precede the lecture.

VILLAGES FURNISH RECRUITS. Borough of Danielson Less Patriotic Than Suburbs in Adding to T teenth Company's Strergth. At the state armory Saturday Cip- tain F. E. Withee stated that recrdits to the number of 25 had been enlisted during the week. This brings ‘he membership of the company, officers and entisted men, up to $9. While recruiting has been brisk dnr- ing the past few days, and some men have entered the service have had to be turned down becanse they were unable to pass the physical examination, the borough of Danielscn has little to boast of in the ranid growth of the company enroliment. early all of the recruits have ome from the villages of Killingly—Day- vilie, Attawaugan, Ballouville, Wil- liamsville, East Killiugly—and others from Wauregan, Moosup, Central V. lage, Plainfield, Putnam and Brooklyn. The’ borough’s response to the call for men has been woefully weak. This fact accentuates the need of a mass meeting to arouse enthusiasm for the service, and the hope was again expressed Saturday by military men that some action be taken ty hurry along the enlistments. The Thirteenth company must have a total,of 150 men to bring it up o var strength. Recruiting parties of Tnon-commissioned officers and enlisted men are keeping up a daily canvass cf all the surrounding territory, and never a day passes but produces through their efforts men whose names are fo appear on the company roster. Prefer- ably only men who are under 25 years of age and single are being recruiced, but men up to 45 years of age are being taken if they apply. No orders for mobilization were rc- ceived here Saturday, although Captain Withee was keeping in touch with headquarters at Hartford. Forget War Has Begun. At the armory a number of mem- bers of the company were waiting about, ready to respond at an instant’s notice to a call for duty, which they all know is coming soon, and, so ar as they are concerned, the sooner the better. They are the veterans, in the making, of future years, the men that ey Chaplain George B. T. Stevenson, U. S. N., is to give an il} lec- ture.

Home Guard Enlists Sixty-Four. Another batch of enlistments at the week end sent the membership of Putnam’s Home Guard company up to 64. within 11 of the maximum al- lowed. Captain Carver is well pleased with the way men huve been coming forward since war was declared. He feels assured that by Tuesday night he will have received enough enlistments to make a full company of 75 men. Thus Putnam will have met the sug- gestion of the state in forming such an_orzanization Medical examinations of the men were commenced by Dr. J. J. Russell Saturday -morning. By tomorrow night it is expected that this feature will have heen completed and the men will be ready for organization. Uniforms, Etc., Arrive. As it has been reported from Hart- ford that uniforms and other equip- ment have been comizg into that city faster than was expected it will not be long_ before the corgbany here is out- fitted. _Officers of the company prob- ably will be selected from among its membership, it is now believed. Drill instructions are expected to be un- dertaken within a few days, so by May the combany here will be well started on_the road to acquiring knowledge of a military nature. UNDER WAR ORDERS. More Armed Guards—Civil in Obeying Orders to Halt Challenged. More armed guards for Putnam_and vicinity. That was the word that was passed here Sunday afternoon. Guarfis are to be stationed, it is understood, in the subway station, at the big city water tower on Oak Hill and at the Front Street bridge. _Guards have been placed about the big plants and dam at North Grosvenordale. The infantrvmen who are doing guard duty here are right on their jobs. Those who encounter them and Teceiue an order to halt will do well prompt heed. This is war .and the.men have instructions to dasthejr duty. The guards at all times a liberal supply of ammu- nition and trifling with the men ls apt to have dangerous results. ‘As an instance of how they are car- rying_out their instructions. it was told Saturday that Orrin Potter, a night watchman at the Modoc ledges on the railroad line west of the city was walking back to Putnam at 4 o'clock Saturday morning and was nearing the big railroad bridge over the Quinebaug river when he heard an_order to halt.

Thompson of Pomfret comes to the front with what looks like a real idea for increasing agricultural products during the ing season. Judge Thompson's idea is booming backyard garden plots 1 right as far as it goes. but the same labor, he says, put by the same number of men on a real farm would result in the production of dozens of times as much foodstuff as can be grown int.the Jittle garden patches. There are hundreds of acres of fine farming Jand in Windham county that will not be cultivated this year un- less something is done to zet men to help the farmers. This s a fact, not a theory. With the certainty of a decidea decrease in the world’s pro- duction of foodstuffs, Judge Thomp- son_urges that some action be taken to find men who are willing to go to the farms and heip produce food. Re- cruiting_along this line is as essen- tial in the present crisis in the world's affairs as recruiting for the different branches of the military service. Two hundred farm hands on Wind- ham County acres would mean a re- markable increase in foodstuffs next summer. Who is going to get them? is the question asked by the persons who know the real need of having it done. DATE BOOK READY. Now Accessible at Chamber of Com- merce Rooms.
