Calvary Baptist church, which has called Rev. Lewis A. Walker, of Arling- ton, Mass., to the pastorate, is an offshoot of the First Baptist church, and its first membership was composed of members of the Pirst church, dissatisfied with the general internal management of that church. Sowe of the present members | of Calvary Baptist church aver that the | trouble was over the removal, or at- superintendent of the Sunday school, tempted removal, of a deacon who was while others claim the division was due to the strong prejudices of the them pastor, Rev. Frederic Denison. This rev- erend gentleman is the author of West- erly and Its Witnesses, ized as the history of the town, in wihch the | only reference to Calvary Baptist church is made in these words: “The Calvary Baptist church was or- ganized in 1870, with a membership of 42. They have a house of worship erect- ed in 1875, at an expense of $18,000.” During the past fifteen 1yary, #¥q un- ! successful attempts were made Lo unite ! the churches into one organizaiion. Early !in 1870, fifty years ago there existed ainong some members of the First Baptist church, a belief that the course of Christ required that another Baptist church be constituted in Westerly. Conferences were held from time to time until on May 10 of that year, fifty-seven persons subscribed their names to a document known as a Basis of Organization, whizh included their views as to the Lord’s Supper, as to open and close com- munion, the covenant and the proposed name of the new church. Toward the Jast of the following month an ecclesi- astical council, representing eight Bap- tist churches, convened to consider the question of recognition. As an outcome of this convention a public service was held July 14, 1870, vecognizing the Cal- vary chur~. a8 & regular and independ- ent Bapust cuurch. it is planyel o celebrate the golden jubilee with special services.” Before the church edifice waa erected, in 1874, services were held at the resi- dence of Enoch Burrows Pendleton ,in ¥im strest, now ewned and occupied by his son, James M.

Before he attained his majority he was engaged in the meat business under the firm name of Mitchell and Hadsell, in Westerly and is kKnown to many of the older residents.

Certainly no one has a larger circle of friends and admirers. Having served in the capacities of sheriff of Carbon county for several years, state senator, = and United States marshal for several years, it is generally agreed if any man is able to administer the affairs of the Rawlins institution that man is Frank Hadsell: “The board went out and picked the best man it could find. “He has been a resident of the state for more” than forty years, and during virtually all of that time has been en- gaged in the sheep and general ranching business in Carbon county. “As warden he probably will be called tp face unusual.obstacles at first, but no one doubts his ability to overcome them.

When these properties were di- vided and passed oyer to separate own- ers, there was no more usc for this bridge and it was removed,, the termi- nals being in private property. This bridge was not destroyed, and is now available for public use, and would be an accommodation to employes of both mills in going to and caming from work. Plans are being made to put this Dbridge in a new location for the general benefit of pedestrians. It is proposed to place fhe bridge across the Pawca- tuck, with terminals at Walnut street, in Paweatuck, and Canal street, near the Rogers storehouse, in Westerly. The Westerly Travel club closed its season with a banquet at the Colonial club, with twenty-two members and guests present. Responses to toasts were made by Miss Elizabeth Haswell, Miss Bertha Bentley, Miss Jennie B. Stanton and Miss Louise Ayers. Musical selec- tions were given by Mrs. Albert T. Ken- neth and Miss Louise Blackler. It you live in Westerly, cut this out and mail it to The Plaut-Cadden Com- pany, Norwich, Conn., together: with] your full name and full address.

It was here that Gen. Moses Cleaveland, the-founder of the city of leveland, set a cornerstone to mark the Western boundary of the United States. , By the “Ordinance of 1787” this Portage Path was declared to be a highway “forever free” between the North and the South. AN % 3 Tne boundary of the United States is shifted far to the west; the trappers and Indians have gone; the once modgst'Ponage Path is new a broad motor highway. ; The automobile has replaced the canoe;in place of men have come pneumatic tiresto fill the role of “carriers” in modem_,lo{:omotion. r l EN years ago the “first Portage Tires were built in 2 little factory that faced the ‘historic Portage Path. That small - : factory has grown and expanded to huge proportions because of the big-mileage performance and rugged merit of the tire. \ & & 3 &) e A notable Portage Tire advantage is the soft and pliant but very tough and long-wearing black tread. Flint-like roads grind thé life out of ordinary tire treads. But the yielding quality of the PORTAGE tread enables it to withstand abrasion to the utmost. This yielding quality —plus the scientifically correct non-skid tread pattern— insures big mileage, easy-riding comfort and skid protection on city streets or_country roads.
