REV. C. H. RICKETTS SPEAKS AT RICHMOXD XOON. MEETING The Norwich Y.' M. C. A, inaugurat- &d ‘noon ' meetings Monday- at the plant of the Richmond (Radiator Company. The men were glad to welcome and lis- ten to the message by, Rev. Charles H. Ricketts who-made a briaf and timely address on the passage “Surely good- ness and mercy have followed me.” He told his hearers of his qwn personal. ex- periences, how in many ways the pass- age quoted had been absolutely true in his ‘own life; how he desired a college education and because of the unmistak- able providence of God he secured it and when he began upecial studies in Yale_he had but $16, and, how in ways wholly “unexpected the means were pro- vided ¢hat enabled him to complete his studies. At this point the mpeaker said wit hemphasis, “You may call it what you will, I call it the providence of God. For twenty-five years I have served in my present pastorate and in many, ways I have seen evidences -of God's providence for which I thark Him. Some- one asked .an old man how old he was. The man replied, “I am five years past the century mark,” whereupon the ques- tioner asked the secret of his long life, and the old man answered; “I have al- ways tried to live in"the light of God.” Any man who follows this- suggestion will realize that “surely goodness and mércy hath followed him.” . These meetings will continue week!y with Mr, Ricketts as speaker. HAGBERG-KILBORN WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT IS SURPRISE Mrs. H.oL.
