Mr. Howe filled the pulpit in the absence of the pastor, Rev. A. F. Pur. kiss, on his vacation, and said in part: Have you ever observed how keen the advértising man is to read human na- ture? How he, in his adwertisements, appeals to certain gualities in this hu- man makeup. Take the automobile ad- vertisements in our current periodicals. Some appeal to the sense of exclusive- ness, others appeal to the public because of the cheapness of operation. But have You ever noticed the one quality which 2ll make strong mention of the quality | God of power. power. As in the automobile, there is a ocer- tain factor in the Christian religion that appeals and that is the power of God. ‘We have this promise of power. We find evidences of it all through the Bible. In the 40th chapter of Isaiah we find the promise of power, again in Paul's letter to the Romans we find this promise. Paul in his letter said that the gospel was the power of God. He had been trained by this power and it had made him content under all circumstances. I want to speak tonight on the fact, the need. the promise and the way to power. The fact that the power is there is evident all through the New Testa- ment. When we look threugh it we find the lack of material that Christ had to work with.

Brown. attorney at law and coroner for New Londen county for| the past 24 years, died at his summer home at Gales Ferry, on Saturday aft- ernoon at 1.15 o'clock. Mr. Brown suf- fered a shock about two weeks ago from which he did not rally and grew steadily worse until the end. He had been in his usual good health up to the time of the shock and it was with sadness) that Norwich people learned of his death on_ Saturday. Mr. Brown has spent practically all of his lfe in this city, having practiced law here since his graduation from college in 1875. He was born in Colchester in 1851 the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Brown and received his early edu- cation in Colchester. He fitted for col- lege and in 1871 entered Brown universi- ty. Here he was prominent in athletics, rowing on the university crew when it competed with crews from other prom- inent colleges. He was graduated with the class of 1875 with the degree of A. B. Among the members of this class who have gained prominence since graduation were the late W. S. Congdon, who prac- ticed law here, and Benjamin Ide Wheeler, who until a few years ago was president of the University of Califor- nia. Following his graduation Mr. Brown read law in an office in this city and was admitted to the bar in 18 During his early days in this city Mr. Brown gained fame as a baseball player being a member of the old Norwich team about 40 years ago. Mr. Brown played sec- ond base and others of the team who are 8till residents here were William F. Hill, Police Sergeant Jobn H. Kane and James Banning of Norwich Town. Shortly after his graduation from col- lege Mr. Brown on August 25, 1875, united in fnarg'age with Miss Mar- gie Elizabeth Graham of Whitinsville, Mass. They had ope son, Frank Brown. who later graduated from Brown and about four years ago was killed in an auptomobile accident near his home in Southington. Coroner Brown's wife died many years ago and he married again on April 30, 1889, His second wife was Miss Adelaide L. Phillips of this eity. Mr. Brown leaves his wife and a sister who lives in Niantic. There are three sgrandchildren. During Mr. Brown’s life in this city he has been chairman of the town school committee and in later yvears had been one of the school visitors. He was a church and of the City Bible class which he took an active interest. ‘With the passing of Mr. Brown Nor- wich loses one of its best citizens, a man thoroughly respected by all who knew him, pleasing of personality, upright in his dealings and a true Christian mran. In his business life he was ever ac- commodating and willing to aid all who sought his assistance. Tt is with a sincere feeling of regret that the people of Nor- wich learn of Mr. Brown's death. in FIRE ALARM 36 GREETS WOMEN AS NEW VOTERS There was but a small response Sat- urday to the mayor’s invitation to have whistles blown, church and school bells rung at noon to mark the signing of the proclamation by Secretary of State Col- by making the 19th amendment a part of the Constitution, thu® giving the wo- men of the United ‘States equal rights in political government. Ten minutes be- fore 12 o'clock Chief Stamton did his part by having box 36 rung in on the fire alarm telegraph apropos to the ratifica- tion of the suffrage amendment by the needed 36 states to make it Eifective. The box is at the corner of Uncas and Sachem streets and was rung by Miss Katherine Kirby. The general response was small, how- ever, as it seems to have been also in other cities in the state, according to newspaper reports.

In a brief programme of water events, Herbert and Fillmore won the canoe race and Herbert was the winner of the boat race. President Brown, Mr. Pendleton and Joseph L.

Inspec- dions of 15,438 of them were completed up to this morning, with 3,253 yet to be passed upon. Probably the worst congestion m the bistory of the immigration station con- fronted Ellis Island authorities tonight, when considerably more than 2,000' must be housed and fed. In a statement tonight Commissioner of Immigration Wallis said: “Judging from information received from steamship agents I must conclude that next week will bring more aliens to New York than jhe record breaking fig- ures of this week.

Our forefathers would never have un- dertaken the tasks that confront the church of today. Take the evangelieal movement, the Christianlzing of China, all these have loaded us down yet we go on, slowly, but always ahead. We need more power, Christ has promised wus this pewer. There is power in the sunshine, in the wind and tides, in fact the world itself is a great unit of power. But this is only a physical power. Christ is the great spiritual power. He is the power through which we attain great ‘heights. The waye to power are many. There is the way of serviee, the fellowship of devotion and worship. Everyone needs to find his own way to power. We are all different and no fixed rule can be followed by all of us to gain this power we must find it for ourselves. There is this power, we need it, we have been promised it and there is a way to it, and may God heip each one of us to find this great and all absorbing power. L cnnnm\i BLAME IN SAYBROOK ACCIDENT Coroner Stephen B. Davis, of Middle- town, cannot find by the evidemce suffi- cient cause to warrant holding any per- son responsible for the grade crossing accident of June 1, at Saybrook, which cost the life of Mrs. Eva Granger and injured several others, some of them so seriously that it took weeks for recov- ery. One of the injured persens, J. W. Rogers, son of Mrs. Harriet Rogers of 47 Pear] street, Norwich, was a patient at the Backus hospital for many weeks.

The follow- ing is the finding: “On the moring of June 1, 1920, an auto bus loaded with passengers and driven by Dwight Merriell, was on its way from Old Saybrook to Deep River, where the passengers were employed in a factory, 3231 “This was an everyday journey and the driver of the auto was well ac- . quainted with the crossing on the rail- road where the accident happened. “On this morfing there was a train of cars on a track which shut off for some distarice the view of the track on which the train was coming. “The driver of the truek kept om his Way over the crossing and had nearly passed it when the oncoming train struck the auto with the result that Mrs, Granger was killed and every ome in | the bus severely injured. “In this case the engineer and fire- man of the train were positive that the bell was rung and the whistle sounded as usual when approaching the crossing. “On the other hand, the occupants of the auto were egually positive that they did not hear ar_ signals to warn that a train was coming. “From the responsibility of the wit- nesses and the willingness of each ene to answer any and all questions, I do not doubt that the warning signals were given, but were not heard, and I do not find that there is evidence of criminal act, omissien or carelesspess sufficient to warrant the holding of any person or persons to answer for said death.’ waisT l FARM BUREAU WORKS IN i LINE WITH PEOPLE’S WISHES ' Of late many people have been asking | “What is the New Lomdon County Farm | Bureau?’ “What does it do?’ ““What| does it amount to?” With these ques- tions before us it may be well to answer a few of these questions, says the Farm Bureau headquarters. At the outset let it be said, it is an organization such as its mame implres, Working toward the development of a better agriculture, a Detter rural life, better homes, and increased interest on the part of both old and young in rural probliems. “But” some one will say, “that is a big prosram. What is actual- ly being done and how is it done?” Let us answer this inqury before preceeding. Last fall a number of pouitry culiing demonstrations were held in fifteen dif- ferent communities of the county. The county agriculturai agent who is one of the pajd workers of the farm bureau assisted the people in these different communities in making arrangements to secure a pouldry epecialfSt from the coi- lege and in advertising these meetings At the demonstrations, each one present had an opportunity to handle the birds, to learn by the points given by the spe- cialist why this bird is a good layer with chances of laying 140 to 150 bggs in a year and why this bird is a poor layer with a probable egg yield during the coming year less than epough to pay for the grain consumed.
