Leenard Harry Leonard, a resident ‘of Nerwich for the past 27 years, died at his home at 22 Clff street on Thursday morning at 7 o'clock folowing an lllness of two weeks. Although Mr, Leonard had been confined to his bed for only a short time he had been in failing health since Fast Thanksgiving day. o : Mr, Leongrd-was born in Weston, Ver- mont, 47 years: ago, the son of Calvin and Rosa Blodgett Leonard, coming to Norwich when he.was about 20 years of age. In this city on April 11, 1895, he was uni\d in \iarriage with Miss Grace H. Nichels. Mr.-Leonard at ené¢ time was employed on the railroad as a brake- man and later ‘went: over to the electric roads as a motorman. Having a keen interest in mechanics and stationary en- gineering he. gave up railroading . and took up this work. . For several years he was in charge of the . refrigérating plant at the Allen-Beeman and later was . engineer at thé Thames River Specialties Company in Montville, His most recent employment was as-fore- man for the Shetucket company. * He was a member of the Methodtst church, ‘the Commercial Travelers and the Norwich Stationary Engineers’ Asso- ciation in waich he had held office. Besides his wife he leaves two sisters and two brothers, Mrs, Eva Riordan and Mrs. Lucia Kelliner and George W. Leonard, all of Nerwich. and Justin | Leonard of North Windham. The’par- ents of Mr. Leonard passed away with- in a year. i imes. Herbert Seofield News was received in this city Wednes- day. of the death of Herbert Scofieid at Trudeau Sanatorium, ‘Saranac, -N. 'Y, Mr, Scofield was bern: in Providence, R. 1, August 4th, 1872, the son of Socrates Scofield, patent attorney, and.Mrs. Abbie Scofield no#v living at 94 Leurel Hill av- enue, this city. Mr. Scofleld’'s father was a member of the noted Scofield family of Montville, Con,, who were pioneers in the woolen manufacturing of New Eng- land. 2 When ahout eighteen years of .age, Mr. Scofield: was' taken -with hemorrhages of the lungs and soon went ; to the Berk- shire Hills, Mass.- in quest of health and later removed 'to Baranac, N. Y, where he has been a patient for many years ltl the Trudeau Sanatorium. i H At the time of his first sickness Mr. Scofield was abot ‘to enter Brown Uni- versity, and being of a keen inmtellectual mind was fitting. htmself for -a profes- sional career, and a.few years after re- ceiving the besefits of the sanatorium he entéred his chosen field as professor of arts and crafts at Ogden eollege, Bowling: Green, Kentucky, where he .spent four happy years instructing the voung peo- ple. in these lines. but hiz physical ltmi- tations forced his return to the moun- tains. ves - Foothegen s At Trudeau, he very. soou sought some worth while occupatien to eccupy his time, and built an oven for the manu- facture of pettery. This came to the at- tention of Dr. Trudeau the head of the institution, who caught the idea of em- ployment to occupy the time and divert the.minds of the patientc sat the sama- torium. . From this small beginning has grown the arts and crafts work ef the Trudeau Sanatorium. which has become a:feature of the institution and has been of such priceless value to the humdreds of pa- tients who have received the benefits of this renowned Mstitution. Mr. Scofield’s case was ome that at- tracted attention from the physieians in touch with him. as he lived and carrisd on his work -as head and director of the arts anq crafts for about eighteen years, living on the small portisn of ‘ome lumg. His useful 1ife was a great inspiration to all who eame in tetch with im, fer while a continual sufferer his first thought was ene for the comfort and happiness of others, and no one will ever fully know ; the real good accomplished by his life.

Tae Lusi- ness meeting was preceied by a’supper served at 6.30 under‘the direction of a committee. representing the Parish House Association. _ Covers were laid for 13 ard the menu wag as follows: Pimento Saiad Rolis H ‘lce Cream Teok's Rev. Samuel H. Howe, D.D., pastor of the church, presided at the busimess meeting which was cailed about 7.30 o clock., The repert of “he chureh clerk, Myron B. Prentice, saowrd the past vear to have been an unusually prosferous one fer theychurch. In ais repoct Mr. Prentice_ said:' The year 1920 -was one of unusual growth for our church. Only four ti in its life of forty-seven years has this _equalled of exceeded. We added 35 to our membership; twenty by confession .and_fiffeen by, letter. We be- gan 1920 with 354 members and ended with 380. We lost by death 6. There ‘were nine baptismes. Reports ‘of the treasurer, the various branches of the' Woman's Association, Sunday school superintendent, society | committee, men’s: club, etc., were pre-| 'sented - and- accented. ‘W. S. Allis reported for the committes on the proposed conmsolidation of the So- ciety ' committee and church membership but action. was deferred in the albsence of Chairman L. O. Smith. - The report of the Superintendent of the Sunday school, Weston C. Pullen, was of unusual interest. It follows: * In my report of the -work jn the Sun- day. . scheol of Park Congregational church for the.year of 1920 _several changes in the operation. of the school will be noticed. .In the first place the school was kept epen during the months of July and August for the first time in its history with a good attendance each Sunday. and with by far the best attendance o1 the epening Sunday of the fall session ever. As all of the congre- gation of the church knows the complete equipment for the showing of meving pic- tures has been installed and s now in successtul operation. A number of local as well as a few .out of town speakers have been present at some of the ses- sions of the school and the average at- tendance hag increased comsiderably dur- ing the past year. As a whole the Son- day school has seen ome of the most sue- censful vears for mome time. The total attendance of pupils and teachers including. some visitors during 1920 amounted té 3343 with an averx‘gf attendance of 82 each Sunday during the year as dgainst a total of 2712 and an average attendance of 69 for 1819. These totals de not inciude the attendance at the special sessions during July and August. The total amounted to 538 with an average attendance of €0 for these nine Sundays. On Jan. 11, 1920, the tour of the Lin- coln Highway was started which sho'y d marked resalts in attendance and col- lections. The campaign was carried on until May 2 during which time nine new scholars were enrolled in the Sunday school as- a direct result of the cam- paign and with but two exceptions all of these mine are still regular attendants each Sunday. The regular sessiofis closed for the summer months of July - and August June 27 and when the.fall session opened the first Sunday in September, namely the 5th, the attendance was 40 and the school was kept in session. For several years previoms the attendance was se small that organization of classes took place and tne school was then dismissed. In 1919 the attendance on the first Sun- day in September was but 18 as com- pared with the above mentioned 40 for | 1920 showing that if the school is kept in ‘operation during .the summer ihose few remaining at home are kept togetner and are ready for the opening of the fall session ,but quicker. From then on the attendance began to pick up. The annual Sunday school picnic wa held at Ocean Beach as usual on June 28 with a trolley full of the members journeying ‘to the beach for the day's outing. Christmas observance was noticed with two services, one being of a religious type and the other a social time. The re- ligious service was heid on Sumday af- ternoon, Dec. 26. in the church, when the programme, Following the Star, of the American Board and Woman's Board of Missions was presented. The social en- tertainment was heid Tuesday, Dec. 28, with a meving picture feature and the presentation of 3 box of candy te each member of the Sunday school and the serving of ice cream and wafers. An entértainment was held following the closing of the Lincoln highway tour in May when the class of Mrs. Van. balls in’ recognition of their werk in campaign. - I wish at this time to thank al eof those in the church as well as the Fvarts Memorial Library fund committee for all they did “towards the 'instailation of the moving picture equipment. With this great results have -aiready been shown. Regirding the services during the two summer months I need not go inte detail as to the type of service that was held but I wish to publicly thank those who so kindly assisted at each service with addresses and solos. - These included: Mr. Henry A. Tirrell, Dr. Benjamin T. Marshall_of Connecticut college, Rev. Gurdon F. Bailey, W. W. Sample, Rev. George H. Weich, Miss Elizabeth M. Cul- the ver, James L. Case. Miss Delia Leavens, Dr. Howe, Misg Mary Lester, Mrs. W. R. Bben Baird, Miss Emily Learned. Misg Esther A. Btdwell, James George Gauile. _ ‘While mentioning the meving pictare project it might be of imterest to note that the entire expense of the equipment, inchuding the rental of ‘films to Jan. 1, 1921, amounted to $644.58. while the amount raised through the gemerous do- nations tewards the purchase of the equipment, and the regular receipts from the sale of fickets at entertainments, etc., totalled $622.34, omly $22.24 less than the, tetal expense which goes to show that new the entire equipment is installed the rentails of fllms can bte cared for by the sale of tickets for enter- tainments. In closing I wish to take this opper- tunity’ to thank the splendid eorps of teachers and officers Who have =o kindly aided materially in the success of the Sunday schoel and to recommend one simple change in the bookkeeping end of the care of the tréasury. . At the present time the treasurer has twe accounts to keep, one for charities. composed entire- ly of the school collectipns.and the sec- ond the money received from the piedges of - the: congregation - of the ' churth ‘to- ‘Wards the expenses of the Sunday schocl. 1 would suggest that these twe. acceunts be made into one, thereby. _detng . away with mpeh work and making it an easier methed fer the treasurer te keep his ac- counts. 1 also would suggest that {he annual meeting elect or appeint an an- ditor for the Sunday scheel in the same manner -as that of the other officers.
