Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock a very interesting meeting was held for men and the opening exercises, of singing, serinture reading and prayer, several reeisgof moving pic- tures -were shown. including The Venice of the Orient and Scemic Gems of North and South America. These pictures were clear so far as the vhotography is con-! cerned, and they were also !mstructive and impressive, showing among _other { scenes life in various narts of the Orient. | the habits of the veonle. etc, mountain and lake scemeg in North America, the winter scenes iu Maine being particulacly | attractive. i The enjoyment of the serviee was In-| creased by the fine’ vocal solos rendered | by Miss Mary Gray. accompanied by Miss | Hazel Banfield. who aiso furnished music, for ‘the pictures. oo Between the reels Secretary Edwin Hill | made a.beief address, takinz -for his! topic Phases of Beauty In part speaker said: We read in Proverhs 31: 10, these words, “Beauty is vain,” and in Psalm 110: 3, we fined these words, “The beauty of holiness.” It is interesting to note the There is @ phase of beauty that is v: a ceftain | kind of beauty that is only “skin deep;” {some peodie nut it on their faces and | others put it into their actions; but, alas, | it is easily detected. This skin deep | beauty is the kind that develops the hypo- kind of beauty. We have been looking upon | the beauty of nature. How gzood God is. It is simply fine to gaze upon the beauty | of fhe sunrise: .one cannot jook upon it without a feelinz.of enthusiasm for the new day; and the sunset, how beautiful and how impressive—it suggests the ! thought of rest and neace. And then the | scenery all ‘around us. Artists with ca- mera and brush delizht us with their| pictures, and we owe much to them. I have 3 personal acmuaintance with Wal- lace Nutting; he was at ope time my pastor; his wonderful pictures of nature have verily made him famous; but after all it is a great thing to get nature's beauty at first hand. The trees in bud and bloseom; the myriad‘ colors of au-| tumn leay wonderful are the | beautiful tints. The flowers in their sea- son; who has cver been able to number theie variety or to micture their beauty? You recall what the Master szid of one simple flower: “Consider, the lily, how it/ grows, it sows not, neither does it spin, | and vet Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.” And even in winter the beauty of the snow delights | us. Some of us have seen piclures mag: nifying the snowflake, and we have been impressed with its beauty. These so- called common thinzs contribute much more than we think to our happiness. Had we_ thestime we could speak of many mory phases of beauty. but let-us think of just | one more suggested by the Psalmist. “the beauty of holiness.” This paseage was | Derfect!y nersonified in Jesus Christ. The | most “transcendent beauty is-the beauty of life and. character. - In Jesus this phase of beauty reached its perfection. We read in the sacred book that He was the chiefest among ten thousand, and the one altogether lovely.” . Why was this irue of Jesus?, Because He was abso- lutely ope with the Father. You remem- bee be said, “T came not to do mine own will but the will of him that sent me,” and how beautifully and fully he demon- strated this, when in the garden he prayed concerning’ his death, “if it be possible, let this cup pass from me, nevertheless, not :my will but thine be done”” Tlow arec we to_obtain this finest phase of beauty? . In only one way. Some things can be done in different ways, but this. thing can be donc in only one way. and that is by livinz.in harmony- wi God. And how can we learn to do this? In three principal wave: First, by the way of prayer; by getting alone with God In reayer, reverently, and regularly we begin to develop this paramount beauty. Secomd, by -regular study of the grand oid book, the Bible, where we can find the only safe chart for our lives; and. thifdly, by unsefish service. If wo ' will st ourselves to these things, we will come to realize in our lives “the beauty of holi- ness.” Men, will we do it? Lewis R. Church operated the moving picture machine, { i ASKS INSURANCE MEN, TO REPORT ON CONDITIONS James 1.

Miss Ma: CHRISTMAS SHOP PROCEEDS \ REACHED ABOUT $1,400 Net proceeds of the Christmas Shop'| conducted Friday at the Community house by the Women's Guild of the United Congregational . church reached ut $1,400, which went well over the goal of $1.000 that had been set, and more t| meets the budget of the guild in church work. Countthg * to a " large degree in this success was the leadership of the general chairman, Mrs Edwin W. Hig- gins, and the president of theiguild, Mrs, Charles Tyler Bard, with whom 130 we- men of the church cooperated with en- thusiasm that brought such substantial results. The privilege of display of articles from the Christmas Shop in the windows of the Plaut-Cadden Co. was an important agdvertising feature for the sale, and one of the pretty speciaktios which added to the attractiveness of the sale were the holly and poinsetta boxes which were presented to the Guild by the Norwich Paper Box Co.. for both the candy and food departments. In serving the excellent supper it was not. the intention to make any profit on thig but to provide a delicious supper for the benefit of the women ‘Workers, their husbands and their friends.
