Considered at Plans for raising Connecticut’s ap- portionment of $26,000,000 of the Na- tional War Savings quota of $2,000,000,- 600 were given serious consideration yesterday at - 2 meeting of war sav- ings chairmen and members of com- mittees refirmnting\, practically ev- ery_ city and town in the state. More than 100 were preserit, and sentiment was expressed on all® sides. that this state shpuld leave nothing updone to “go over the. top” before January 1, 1919, when the first vear's campaign will end. Howell Cheney of South Manchester, state. director, presided and the prin- cipal speaker at the afternoon segsion was J. E. Kavanaugh, assistant fed- eral director of Washington.. During the day .Yreports were presented by chairmen from the different communi- ties, showing that the total smount raised to date in this state was in ex- cess. of, $1.300,000. Henry C. Chappell of New. London, read figures showing. that city was the banner community, with a total. raiged and. pledged. of $112,563.44° or -about $450 per: capita. Manchester was next in line, with 2 per, capita -average of $4.30. _Other cities und fowns were not far behind. One of the guests of honor present at the convention was Mrs. A.: L. Crowell of South Manchester; who by her individual efforts hase secured 64 members of the Taft §1,000 Limit club, of which Former President William H. Taft is chairman. Members of this club pledge themselves by their sav- Ings to' buy war savings certificates to the face value of $1,000 during the year. Assistant Federal Director Kava- naugh confined the. greater portion of his remarks to the ' advisability /of founding war+ savings - societics. -In many communities these societies, the sneaker spid, had -been neglected. The selling idea was uppermost, and the principal idea of the campaign, that of saving. was- entirely neglected. Mr. Kavanaugh urged that societies be founded wherever possible in order to promote the idea of'systematic sav- ing. y Encouraging reports. were received from the progress of the campaign in- Néw - Haven, Bridgeport, Waterbury and Hattford, the pfincipal population centers of the state, where the zreater part of Connecticut'd allotment must be raised. Affairs in New Pritain, Stamford, Middletotn, Winsted and many of the smaller communities were shown to be in excellert shape. In be in excellent shape. In many. of the rural districts bad weather had held back the work, but with the advent of spring a strong advance was promised everywhere. At the morriing . session President Flavel S. Luther of Trinity. College was the principal speaker. Dr. Taer.said that of the 300. graduates of '‘Crinity more than 100 were now-in the trench- es. r. Luther spoke in part as follows: “It is the saving of things, and with the mxkfng and production of things with which we must concern -ourselves at the present time. The government must have munitions, supplies $and ‘food. 'We must eat things not edsily exported. to our.allies.

The Parish House iAssociation of Park church held their March meeting in the Hugh Henry Osgood Memorial Friday afternoon. Mrs. Bunneli, pres- ident, conducted the meeting. ~ The usual reports were given and it was anriounced that the meeting of the as- sociation held at the Red Cross room fer work, will be on Saturday, the 16th, instead of on Thurday. On vote the chair appointed a nominating com- ‘mittee composed of- Mr. Hugh H. Os- good, chairman, Mrs. W. Tyler Browne and Mrs, Henry Arnold. The women’s chorus led by Mrs. Charles T. Bard, repeated.some of the trench songs, sung at the last meet- ing. Mrs. Charles: Haskell -aceompan- ied them at the:piano.. Smile, Smile, Smile, The . Whole World is.

The ‘audience was greatly. favored by & most. delightful paper on The New England’ Meetinghouse, by Mrs. Bela P, Learned. . : Mrs. Learned’s paper was enriched with many a perss=al reminiscence and remembered story which brought near and. closs-to us.. - The New England meeting around which have been-buiit much of the history and romance bf .our coun- try, are veritable treasure troves to the seeker after knowledge. * When the Pilgrim Jathers janded at Plymouth they'“at “once ~assignéd a Lord’s Day. Meeting: House for - the Separatist' church, a fort in strength and construction® and_fo this fort they went every Sabbath, :the men fuily armed with gun 2nd sword, until in 1648 they huilt .themselves, a trwer meeting house for public worship. The Puritan was bitterly opposed to call- ing his meeting house a church, while the Church of England, Episcopalian, was as bitterly opposed to calling it the House of God. The early settlers were ~eager to build their meeting hoisés and for fear future settlements should be i different, they made a law in 1675 that every town in the.colony should build one and by law, within half a mile of their houses. If not so built the magisirate was to build one and charge the expense to the town. As the towns grew, this became imprac- ticable, so the law became a dead let- ter., Often the meeting house, to ac- commodate a whole township, was placed in a most ‘remote situation, per- haps a Hiill so steep as to be very in- convenient for travel. The first meeting fouses were very simple, square log-houses with clay- filled chinks, and often-only the.beat- en earth for the floor, They were sel- dom painted. Perish the thought! Such outwarg show was vain and ex- travagant! But in the middle of the eighteenth centwry: paint became cheaper and more plentiful and a riv- alty in church deeoration sprang up. Tor instance the new meeting house in Pomfret, Conn., the same dignified building which stands near the Ben Grosvenor .Inn today,. was painted bright vellow, and it proved a veri- table golden ' apple of discord all through the county, all the other towns wanting to follow suit, and each have their meeting house ‘cul- lured” like. the Pomfret- meefing house. The body: of the church was painted bright orange, the doors and bottom boards chocolate and the trimmings of white. Inside it was all very simple, raftered walls and sanded floors, the rafters oftenhung profusely with spi- der webs to the great edification of the tired children . for to- sit- through long hours of public worship. The second and more dignified form of* New ‘England meeting house was usually ‘a" square - wooden building with pyramidal roof, with a beifry Which served as a lookout station, and held a bell from which. the bell’rope hung’ down to the floor in the centre of the church aisle. There is an old church at Hingham, Mass., which is 2 fine. example of this form, known as the Old Ship. - It was built in 1681 and is still in use. = and costly, so did the meeting house; and the third form, with lofty wooden steeple at one end, in the style of ar- chitecture inventéd 'by Sir Christopher When, after the great.fire<of London, increased so rapidly that every town {had one. * The builders .and cos - | sations gave no thought. to anyihing il be held Monday, March 11, in the but. the steeples, and these varied and of great beauty. the times of .which she 'spoke very‘(_' houses | er his sermon_and after a dreadful Dibiveta- E i oo oot ve ‘chur go el Trembling ’%“ufi?‘}“& poor child an her big brothers who had been. sif in the gallery, came home, they told how the wicked little Mary had been,sent home from ul:smh, so the poor little thing was whipped; thus beirig. punished for the sins of the Bels A The churches were totally unwarm- ed and their damp interiors, closed from Sunday to Sunday, must have Dbeen well nigh intolerable to sit in through the three hour sermons and one and two hour prayers. Bread froze on the communion plates, but week-old babies were baptized despite the weather. Clothing was inadequate to keep out t'y cold; that is women’s clothing. The! men were quite comi- fortable in tieir many caped cloaks, heavy top boots, frieze stockings; their warm periwigs aad beaver hats or 'hoods, and their muffs, which they were constantly losing. ' But the wo- men! Thin silk or cotton hose, with the thinnest of kig or cloth or silk slippers with paper soles, were worn on the Sabbath. Chilly linen under- clothing and scant French calico gowns, made With elbow sleeves and low cut necks with thejr lawn necker- chiefs. A thin cloth cape lined with silk the only covering for the shoul- ders. Only their hands, protected by huge bearskiff muffs, and their heads, wrapped i veils or muffiers and hoods, could have been warm. In bitter weather little footstoves began to be used, some of them very pretentious. The first church of Bos- ton was the first New England meet- ing house to be warmed by a_stove. This was i 1773, and in 1783 the Old South church «followed with the same luxury and the Evening Post came out with the following poem in regard to it, Jan. 25, 1783: Extinet the sacred fira of love Our zeal grown cold and dead In_the house of God we fix a stove To warm us in their stead. | This luxury met with much opposi- tion. It is related that the wife of a ety bitter opposer swept into church and, fainted in midst of the service. When carried out and partially re- 1eovered, -she faintly attributed it to the heat of the /stove, but on being informed no' fire had yet heen made in 1t, her recovery avas very rapid. f .all the dismal accompanimerits of ‘public worship in those early days none was rhore foriorn than the music Not only was the versification of the Psalms confused, but-the few tunes they knew were mournfully monoton- ous. The great length:of many of the Fsalms in the Bay Psalm Book, then in use, was fatal to any good singing, many of them-being 130 linés long and taking, when lined and sung, a full half hour. during which the patient j congregati stood.

'The bell in this church was rung on all important oc- casions, the last time having been when it rang all night in 1815 on the [declaration of peace with England.
