He be- lieves that to improve the quality of the ministry Is to increase the quantity. He urged. that the object of a sermon is of vastly more importance than its subject. The ministry of today needs a great cen-| tral purpose ang that purpose needs to be the redemptive quality of Christ. He strongly affirmed that the student body in our schools of learning know what is the supreme purpose of any minister who comes in touch with them and pressed home the fact that it is the minister's till Thursday morning. privilege to have that supreme purpose The’ devotionnl service at 8.30 a. m.|the same as what is manifest in Christ. was in charge of Rev.

JEWETT CITY The board of borough government has notified Officer John Dolan that on the 15th of the present month they are to change the police officer. ‘At a meeting of the warden and burgesses held last Mon- day evening certain charges were pre- ferred against Officer Dolan. Officer Do- lan says the stories. as well as the al- leged charges against him at the above mentioned meeting, are not-true, which he proposes to prove. During Wednesday forenoon and a part of the, afternoon a Jewett City man who is a firm believer in Officer Dolan’s honesty and efficlency, took occasion to inquire of 20 men as to their personal opinion. The result of this solicitation would be very gratifying to Mr. Dolan and would echo the sentiment of a very large per cent. of the population of the borough. " The borough officials are: Warden-Joseph H. McCarthy, Burgesses Willlam Johnstone, John Godek, L. M. Carpenter and Clarence Kahn, The vote: to put another officer in Dolan's place stood two for and two against-and was carried by the vote of the warden. A man who lives in the adjoining town of Lisbon comes over to the sister town of Griswold almost every day. Thursday he came over and meeting a “tifis side of the river” man, he accosted,him thus. Said he: “You have heard of The Lost Chord, and the Lost Latch Key, now it is, the lost poem. The story told is this: Some 50 years ago, or possibly a little better than that, Jewqit City, instead of being one.of the liveligst localities in Con- necticut, was a small, sort of a sleepy, home-like viflage, with extra accent on the home-like; eyerybodyrknew everybody and aiso kng® everybody's business. Among tlie many acknowledged genfuses in Jewett City at that time there lived a poet. He wrote 2 poem which for real ingenujty, skill and logal application has nevey yet been equalled. The style of this*poem Was vaguely along the lines of John Gilpin's Ride or The One Horse hay. The first few lines-have been as- sembled from the back shelves of a few of the oldest living memories. They ran us: Johnnie Dolan tends the picker, Robert Brown sells the licker, Charlie Fanning tends the store, Slater’s key unlocks the door. i | Jsrael Mathewson rings the bell To save poor sinners' souls from hell. \ Doubtless a fabulous price would be paid to find the rest of this masterpiece. Those who have heard it say that the oc’ upation of every man in Jewett City a half eentury ago was carefully interwoven in the lines of this ancient, poem, the au- thor of which is known only in the rec- ords of the forgotten past. Rev. Albert Dopnell, who in November, 1919, left .the pastorate -of the Jewett City Congregational church to take up special work in Castine, Me., has accepted a call to the Newington, N, H., Congrega- | tional church. While in Maine Mr. Don- | nell accomplished several worth while | things for’ the.

During the-past few weeks Mr. Donnell has re- ceived several calls. He goes to Newing- ton not because it is the larger pay or place, but because of speelal features iN the work that needs to be done. The church building was erected by the town in 1212 and is still owned by the town.
