Sesstons of the seventy-fitth anniversa- Ty of the founding of the American Mis- sionary socclety of the Congregatignal ehurches were held in New London on Thursday at the Second Congregational church, coming to a close with the even- ing session. -, x { _ The landing of a shipload of slaves In New London harbor in 1845 and the intérest that was aroused through the 5:5\! battle that was started over the of these Africang brought into be- | ing the American M ary Association, which whe organized in New London en the centennial year of the city, 1846. Tt was appropriate therefore that the city should be chosen for the jubiles anni- versary meetings. The closing session of the anniversary night had the following programme: Devotional gervice; Sec.-Cornelioug H. Patton, D. D, Mass, A service of pray- er for the Washington Disarmament Conference. Address, The Coming American, Rev. Wiljlam E. Barton, D. D.. Moderator Na- tional Counci], Illinois. Address, A Plea For the Reign of Law, William H. Lewis, Mass. The presiding officer at the ppening of the anniversary was F. E. Porter of Brooklyn, N. Y. Rev. Ernest 1# Wismer of Bristol, Conn., enndu,ut;g the devotion- al servics. A group of Fiske university (Tenn.) singers quite- captivated the large audience that gathered in spite of the inclemency of the weather. After a brief display of moving ple- tures of the schools of the society, M: or Lucius E. Whiton gave the address of welcome. He wag followed by George 8. Pal- mer, who had been moderator at the ses- sions of the state conference closing on ‘Wednesday afternoon and who brought the greetings of the Congregatioal churches of Connecticut. Among other informing matters presented, he brought out notes and letters in thé hand writing of his grandfather, Gideon Palmer, writ- ten during a visit in the south in 1833 and 1834, as he was installing thére ma- chinery for the éxtraction of cottonseed ofl. He feared that the slave labor of that era was not' up to using the ma- chinery to much advantdge. Mr. Pal- mer spoke of the generous hearts of southeastern Connecticut that in days gone by had rendered signal service for the cause espoused by this soclety and other great enterprises of the Congrega- tional denomination, sugh' as the Jo- seph Hand foundation of a million or more and the Slater fund of as much more. Religion and Races in Ameriea. The presiding officer accepted these words of welcome to New London in a happy speech and introduced- the speak- er of Wednesday evenin's session, Rev. Nehemiah Boynton, D. D., the president of the American Missionary association, Dr. Beynton is a great favorite with New London audiences and was lstened to with rapt attention punctuated with ap- plause. His theme was Religion and Races in America. He spoke with force and keen wit, profound cenvietion and feeling that stirred all present. He had recently attended the internationa] meet- ing of Methodists in England. He had found little or mo color line among the Britishers. He found many sad things in every European country he visited. The spiritof hate seemg to prevail. They at it for breakfast and dinner and sup- per. America has still escaped that rancor. Bryce says, “America of all countries has a right to hope.” George Brandeis savs, “Europe is finished and the domination of the world now passes to America.” Our trouble, according to Dr. Boynton is a certain attitude of superiority and dislike of foreigners. Ja- pan is sore on this account, and o are all that come in contact with this unfortunate spirit. Not unti] we take each nationality by the hand with a deep spirit of fellowship shall we begin to do our proper work. Religlon must be the basis for all this; old-fashioned spiritual religion that can make s mighty in epite of our faults. Religion, he said, is our saving qual- ity. It is the soul and origin of the American Misslonary assoclation. From the first it has been its chief asset. Re- ligion for these 75 years has givan the association its light and vision. In.| those early days it faced a frowning world, but the work has gome steadily forward to this glorious day. Morning Sesslon Thursday. The morning sessloni Thursday at the Second Congregational church was re- plete with interesting discussion under the presiding genius of Dr. Nehemiah Boynton, the president of the associa- tion.
