TAFTVILLE Auto Truck in Dl'fi:ulty on Muddy Road—Personal Mention, Thursday afternoon the aufo truck owned by the Edward Chappell -com- pany of Norwich was stranded in the mud en Providence street. The road has been covered with crushed stone recentty and the truck turned into the side of the road to avoid the rough going. In doing so the truck ran into soft ground over a recently laid pipe, with the result that it sank up to the hubs of the wheels in the mud. The truck was heavily loaded with brick WILLIAM C.

His annual:report upon the -condi- tions in the Nofwich-district was. s follows: The beginning of the coulunnep year 1917-18 Tound alf the churches on Norwich district supplied ‘with pastors and looking forward to a year of en- thusiastic service. The close of the year finds two churches without pas- /fors, Willimantic and South Coventry |linked together, and Stafford Springs and Crystal Lake united under the same minister. The vacancies Wwere caused by the transfer of E. A. Legg| from Danielson to Waterville, Me., and the departure of C. E. Delamater from Hockanum to spend a Sabbatical year in Southern California.- The new ad- justment for South Coventry and Crystal Lake resulted from the seri- ous illness of N. B. Caok Who was compelleq to, relinquish his work at Tolland"and Crystal Bar- ber supplying at South Coventry was assigned to Tolland and the two small- D |er churches provided for as alrcady stated. These, with a new student supply at Oneco and Green, constitute the changes in pastoral charges during the year. For several weeks E. J. | CUFTY of Westerly was incapacitated by sickness during which time his work was cared for by the men in the district. Death of Mlchnl Maynard, Until about a week ago we had hoped to report no deaths among the pastors of the distriet, but on Monday, April 8, Michael Maynard died at Montville. For_three yéars he su piied thé little church at Gardner Lake, tramping three miles each way, when the weather was favorable and preach- ing to a few faithful folks who en- deavor to keep the gospel fires burning in one of the most remote sections of Connecticut and receiving for his sti- pend the fabulous sum of $120.a year. He was an ordained Baptist minister, supplying a Methodist church. After a brief iliness he died full .of good at the ripe old age of 82 years. ervant of God, well done”™ We also have to chronicle the de; uu of Merrick Ransom, who_ retired Setive service In 1909 .

Trom the churches in Nor- wich district. nearly four Fkundred young men have entered the service of the country, scarcely a church but has a_ service flag contgining anywhere from one to forty stars, and these numbers are daiiy increagseq as new names are added to theé® roster, snd while it is impossible to compute the amount of money subscried, because the larger part has heen given through | agencies not immediately connected with the church, yet from reports of offerings taken in Sunday schools, and |at -different - services for Red Cross, relief work, camp supplies, ete, the district will -aggregate mot less than three thousand doflars and during this time the preachers have given -their time and strength thout stint, as #peakers for the state council of de- fense, service on exemption boards, siting camps and- forts, addressing |the boys, and helping whenever -they. cculd with advice and coumsel. Many Uniformed Men Attend Service. The church at New London has had an average aitendance of sixty men in uniform, at the Sunday services, while in_twehty-one weeks, six hun- dred different names were recorded onitiie church register. ‘While work connected with the war looms large, and the call of céuntry must have the right of way until vie~ tory is won, neverthéless, the regular agencies of the church have been pushed with vigor. A deep spiritual earnestnesy is apparent in many places, the spirit of self sacrifice is bearing fruit in individual lines. A religious atmosphere has been ereated in which it is'easy to preach, and out of which should come a rich harvest of lives converted to Jesus Christ. Last fall a district team was organ- ized for evangelistic- work. R. S. Moore was the preacher. A: H. Withee conducted the altar services and C. E. Delamater had charze of the 'muisie. A thres weeks' meeting was held at South Manchester, eight other Metho- dist churches cooperating. Fuel Shortage Interfered. It was our purpose to earry theése meetings’ to all parts of tlie district but the severity of the winter and shortage of fuel compelied a cessation of effort in' this direction. Enough was accomplished, however, to prove the value of team work as an organized effort for evangelistic purposes. Special revival services have been held at Westerly, Manchester. Staf- | of J. B, Adiley of Burnside, and Mrk{ | ford Springs, the pagtors” having as- sistance from outside, .but in most places the: pastor has been his own evangelist. Two hundred and uvehty-flvo per-. sons have been received into prepara- tory membership and three hundred and twenty-five into- full’ membsruhi according to figures received 'at thu vnsent time. Sunday school furnishes a fine le!d lor faithful service and- is rich: with opportunities for spiritual nuture.

Benevolences: -According to repm:u received the. apportioned benevolences will not fall below the record of last year, and there are indications.of & substantfal increase. Quite a number of churches have increased oyer a yeat ago, and some lice ~ Millville, Gales Ferry, South Manchester, Wapping and possibly others “Will ‘meet apportion- ments in- full. Give Loyal Support, When we take into consideration the lerge giving. for. causes conneoted. with the war, it Is gratifying to find pasters and " people, loyally supporting ~ the standards set forth by the church for the work of its own benevojent boards. While special gifts and eridowments are not as large as reported a year ago, they add considerably ' to ~tha splendid record of Norwich district. “R. N. Stanley of Sonth Manchestsr gives $1000 to conference claimants, also $800 for the erection of a chapel in China in memory of his father, a former member of this conference. The cburch at South Manchester has joined the Taft club, the official board voting $500 from the balance of this year to-the cause. The speclal benev- olences of this strong church will ag- gregate not less than' $3,000, while ail regular benevolerices are met in full. The recent every member canvass to secure: next vear's budget of $5,600 went over the top to the tune of more than $6,000. Miss Alice M. Riley. a lifelong mem- ber-of the Burnside church. has willed her household goods to ‘the Ladies' Aid society, her home. valued at $2,500, to the trustees for the use of tho church, and after some legacies ‘are paid the residue of the estate gzoes to the New England branch of the Wom- an's Foreign Missionary soclety. Received Liberty Bonds. The Ladies' Aid of this church re- ceived a $50 Liberty bond from F. C. Gould, and the church z $160 ~bond from Mrs. H..J. Wickham. The chureh at Stafford Springs re- ceived a gift of $1,000 from Mrs. Lucy A. Ellis in memory of her husband, Charles G. Ellis, income for current expenses. i Charles Gordon o Hartford has given the church at Moosup $250 a5 & memorial to his elster, Hattie E. Gor- 0.

Olmsted the church at Moodus receives $1,000. ‘Windsarville receives $500 from Mrs: Treat for the support of the gospe), and” 3500 has been willed to Ware- house Point by Mrs. Mary Arnold. Extensive repairs on church prop- erty: At Attawaugan, the Attawaugan company has expended $1,000 for in- stalling a new heating plant and othex necessary improvements. The sum of $600 has been expended 2t Glendale. The bills were pald by the generosity of William Orrell, & member of the board of trustees. The parsonage at Staffordville has been greatly improved, Jargely by the labor of the preacher. G. A. Wright and- his son; estimated value $530. The peaple of New London have sub- scribed $2,500 to install & new heating system. A new well has been driven for tha gza:;onage at Wapping at a cost of, 7 church and parsonage; $550 for repairs at Thompsonvill, and $200 at Hast Hampton. Not the least interesting item is ths increase of pastors’ salaries, $200 at Stafford Springe, $200 at Westeriy $100 at Rockville, $100. at Uncasville, $50 at Oneco; Fast Hampton and North Grosvenordale have returned to the old figure before the reduction of a year ago. Other churches must and doubtless will follow suit if- our min- istry is to be maintained according to the’ present day standard of Hving. The Church Societies. Much lias been omitted from this report that is vmm%l of record, tne names of ministers d laymen who are doing their best and giving their utmost.. The work of the Ladies' Ald, the Woman’s Home and Foreign Mis- sionary societies, the work of the dea- coness at Danielson, special occasions like the organ dedication at Easl Hampton, with sermon by Bishop An- derson, the semi-centennials at Sputh Coventry and Rockville, the presence, ing and other occasions. Service, flag! dedications, stirring patriotie meetings. these and numerous items of interest cannot be presented at length, The year has been one of hard work, faith- ful deyotion and personal sacrifice on the part of preachers and people. We have ne regrets only that more has not been accomplished. Gratitude. to God for His goodness, gladness for. the prilviege of service, and grim defer- mination not simply to hold the ling but to'carry the battle to complete and final victory. This is the spirit of Norwich distriet and will continue, to be, provided we are not driven to des- peration. Brethren, in the name of efficiency, .that cateh word of a year ago, in the name of justice,, fair play and common sense, cannot ething. be done to check some of the drives bsrere our forces are dlulpat‘d ranka depleted and our peuple diset ‘We are being bombarded fi all quarters by communications telling us that the district superintendent is the “key " everything depends upon him, erganize your dlsmet. cireularize your preachers, go over the top for 2a every member canvass or a special ap- peal at ieast once a menth, put enry thing eise to one side, save the I represent, this matter for the church at the present time, - don’t fifl us at this eritical ‘moment,” and there is confusion worse confounded.
