Many drifting German. mines are making traffic very difficult in the Euphemian Circle’s Silver Anniversary Special Programme Carried Out at Greeneville Congregation- al Church—Historical Sketch by Miss Mary Henderson. ‘Wednesday evening in the parlors of the Greeneville Congregational church Euphemian circle of the King's Daughters observed their 25th anni- versary. An enjoyable supper was served, at waich the guests of honor were Rev. and Mrs. Lewis W. Barney of Sound Beach. Rev. Mr. Barney was the pastor of the church when the circle was started and Mrs. Barney was the first leader. The tables were placed in the form of a Maltese croes, the emblem of the King's Daughters, #nd were attractively decorated. The room was decorated in ovange and black and the tables all held lighted candles with orramental shades. The following menu was served by the committee: Scalloped Potatoes. ‘Meat Loaf. Coffee. Pickles. ream and Cake. After the supper Mrs. Anton Nelson, leader of thés circle, who acted as toastmaster, introduced Rev. Mr. Bar- ney. Mr. Barney spoke on the changes not only in Greeneville and in the parish but in the world at large during the quarter century that the circle has been in existence. Mrs. Barney, the drst leader of the circle, spoke in a vleasing manner, giving reminiscences of the parish 20 yvears ago. Rev. C. H. Ricketts, the present pastor, waa called on and spoke of the fine work that the circle was doing and hoped that it might have many more such anniversaries. Miss Mary Henderson was then call- ed on for a historical sketch of the circle, and she spoke as follows: Organization of the Circle. On the evening of the sixteenth of September, 1892, a number of the young ladies of the Greeneville Con- gregational parish met at the home of Miss Alice Gardiner of Prospect street. The mecting had been called for the purpose of eoneidering the ad- visabllity of organizing a circle of The King’s Daughters and a great deal of interest was shown. As a result of the meeting a circle was started, officers were glected and a’committee was ap- pointed to prepare a constitution. Two weeks later the first regular meeting was held with Mrs. L. W. Barney at the parsonage, new mem- Lers were added to the previous list and at the suggestion of the pastor the name FEuphemian was selected. A constitution was adopted and the Bu- phemian circle of the King's Daugh- Sterling Club Is Open—-Join Today - You have only a few more days to join the Sterling Club and to get the special advantages that come to Club Members only.

Evidently no time was lost for the report of this first meeting says “the sewing was distributed” and also “a date was set for an apron sale.” The circle thus started grew rap- idly in membership and very soon it hecame necessary to hold the meet- ings in the chapel where the lirge number could be metter aoccommo- dated. The early reports show enthu- siastic meetings, successful entertain- ments, socials and sales which some of us can remember. Surely to a few of us the mention of the Punch and Judy shew and the Crow Bill Adelphi will bring pleasing recollections of earlier days. Financially Successful. That the enter:ainments were finan- ially successful is shown by the re- ports of the treasurer at each meet- ing. In one report in May, 1893, the committee stated that from the Iast enteriainment they had a balance o $310.07 .and it was voted to place $310 ir the bank so even at the early age of seven months the society had a substantial bank account. And through the twenty-five years since that first meeting the same work has gone on. In many and in varied ways bas money been collected so that there might be always in the treas- ury the means with which to respond when the call should come. Many a poor family has been help- ed over hard places, coal and wood have often been sent to the needy, baskets of fruit and food have found their way to many a home, little chil- dren have been given pleasure, the aged have been remembered, the sick have been visited, flowtrs have ex- pressed kind thoughts and sympathy and good cheer has been dispensed in many ways. . Closely Connected With Church. Since from the day of its organi- zation the circle has been closely con- nected, with the church much of the vork has been done there. Mam; ave sums of money been given ‘erent purposes as occasion re- in fact from the year 1907 un- til the present time $873 have gone in- to the' church treasury inthe name of the King’s Daughters. Should we toke time to look around the building still further evidences of the circle's ctivity might appear. The windows in the room above were purchased with that early bank account. When curtains were neceded in the recrea- tion room they were supplied; in the pulpit furnishings appear. $145 of King's Daughters’ money and the in- dividual communion service was a gift of_the circle. But although we may believe that “charity bezins at home” we would not have it end there and we are glad to know that we have in some meas- ure at least been able to help the needy not only in Connecticut but in many other states and even in such far distant countries as India and Ja- pan. B Mention might be made of our room the King’s Daughters’ home at orwich Town and we, cannot help a little feeling of pride as we remember that the FEuphemian circle provided the-first money collected for this same home. There still remain in our midst some of the artists who were members of that theatrical group which several years ago went to Breed Hall and there presented that play which brought such a substantial sum into the treasury. Busy With the King’s Work. For the past five years each month a certain sum of monty has been given to help pa$ the rent for the Salva- tion Army and one 'might continue indefinitely citing incMents of work undertaken but it seems enough to cover all by simply saying the circle as been busy helping along the King’s work. Only a few of the .names signed to ie original constitution twenty-five vears ago still remain on the mem- ership roll but others have taken their places and the work has not suf- fered. Ior the first five vears after its or- ization the circle was fortunate in ng one leader and a most efficlent one. Full of helpful suggestions and rays ready and willing, whatever success has come to the circle in the twenty-five years of its history is in a great measure the result of the first five years of her wise and inspiring leades The Euphemian circle of the King's Daughters will always seem very closely allled with the name of Mrs. Lewis W. Barney From that time on many leaders have been in the chair, each one work- g faithfully to carry on the good work. Among the names we find Miss Louise P.

Has Fulfilled Its Mission. It would be impossible in these few moments to tell with any detail of work which covers a period of twent five vears but enough has been said to show that the circle has in some degree at least fuifilled the mission for which it was organized and no better wish can be expressed for its future than that it may continue to grow in good work and that in the years to come it shall always be found faithfully working whenever and wherever opportunity offers “in His name.” The Honorary Members. FoHowing the historical sketch, Mrs. Nelson called for a toast to the hon- orary members, which was responded tc by Mrs. Archibald Gilchrist. Mrs. Arthur Blacklecge responded to the teast to the older members, and Mrs. Nelson herself toasted all the mem- Lers of thelcircle. As a token of the appreciation of the circle for her in- valuable aid in the founding of the circle, Mrs. Fred Fox presented a handsome bouquet to Mrs, Barney. The affair was closed by the singing of America and The Star Spangled Banner by all. Mrs. C. H. Ricketts accompanied on the piano. The Circle Officers.

The members of the Eastern Con- necticut Branch are deeply interested in the completion of fifty years of mis- sionary work for the women of non- Christian lands which event is o be celebrated by the Woman's Board of Misslons at a big jubilee meeting in Boston, November 12-16. It .was in that city, in the chapel of the famous Old South Church. that a group of forty representative women ~met to organize the Women's Foreign Mis- sionary Society of New England which later became the Woman's Board of Missions of the Congregational church. An historical pageant “The Gift of Light” to be given in Jordan Hall, Conservatory of Music, on the even- ings of November 12 and 13 opens the ‘jubilee week. It was written for this occasion. Woman’s work for woman from Bible times to the present era is the brdad theme developed in thirteen episodes full of dramatic situations with brilliant costuming, strange Hin- du and Chinese music, foreign games .ana folk dances, and realistic pictures of life in mission lands. Such a fea- ture is an ideal introduction of the board’s fiftieth ‘annual meeting which formerly opens November 14, Most of the session’s will be in Park _Street church, but Tremont Temple will be used for a big mass meeting on the evening of November 15. Naturally the programme will con- tain much of historical interest, found in graphic reviews of the achievements of half a century, in the presence of veteran workers and pioneers, among them a Christian doctor who has come all the way from Bombay to bring greetings from India’s women. “Start- ing for the Field in '68” is the subject of an address by Mrs. Ursula C. Marsh of Philjppopolist Bulgaria, who, as Ur- sula Clark, was one of the board’s pi- oneer missionaries to Turkey. As a contrast to the veterans will be the fresh young recruits with faces already turned toward the East. One of them will follow Mrs. Marsh on’ the programme. taking for her subject “Fifty Years After.” This young wo- man. Miss Adelaide Fairbank, not only represents the number of modern col- lege girls who are giving themselves to missionary service, but she unites ithe past and present as she is the daughter; grand-daughter and great ! grand-daughter of missionaries to In- jdia. A feature of one of the after- {nonn sessions will be the solemn ser- vice in_which a group of young wo- men will be commissioned as mis- sionaries under life appointment. The list of speakers .on the gramme includes missionaries from Africa, China, Japan, Turkey and Austria—women who have recently come from their fields and have signif- icant stories to tell of world condi- tions. Among them are: Miss Lulu G. Bookwalter of Ceylon;- Miss Isa- belle Phelps of North China; Mrs. H. J. Bennett of Japan; Mrs. J. S. Porter of Austria; Miss Lucile B. Foreman, Miss Grisell M. McLaren and Miss Clara C. Richmond and others from Turkey. Broader aspects of the mlm:mry outlook will be set forth in addresSes by _men and women of national fame —President Mary E. Woolley, Mrs. Helen Barrett Montgomery, Rev. James L. Barton and Dr. John R. Mott. “Our Missionaries, World Citizens” is the subject of an address by a keen obk server, Mrs. Franklin H. Warner of White Plains, N. Y.. who has recently visited mission fields in the Orient. The devotional periods will be an in- tegral part of the board’s meeting, and. have been planned with great care. Special services on two days will be conducted by Rev. Dr. William Allen Knights. author of that famous study’ the Twenty-third salm, “The Song of Our Syrian Guest”; Dr. A. Z.
