Dedication OF the Middlebury Bapfist
Church, Dec. 90, 1889. "

Tho usual and appropriate intro due.
tory services were participated in by
Rev. Messrs. Estes of Vergennes, Pierce
of johnson Pratt of st. Adams, Post
of Brandon, and 5. ii. Archibald of
Wallingford, assisted By talented and
sppreciative choir selected and led by
Mr.. Monroe Peck.
Sermon by Rev. II. G. De Witt, ID.
D., N. Y, from Luke Z IS "For he
loveth our nation and hath built us
synagogue" 1t was an eloquent dis
course. appropriate To the occasions
and evidently touched the hearts of the
large and intelligent audience which
crowded the beautiful house,.
After an anthem the pastor, &. Hib-
bard, made the statement for the build
ing committee. The subscription paper
for the new church was drawn up on
the 9th of December, 1880, the same
pledged to be binding only when $4,000,
designed for church and parsonage,
should be secured. This was filled
Nov. 9, 1881. The contract was let to
Messrs. Smith 81 Allen, builders of this
place, on the 18th of April, 1882, for
$4,000 exclusive of furnishing, and we
believe they have done their work well,
including furnishing, for which we are
largely indebted to the ladies, God
bless them. The church edifice has
cost about $4,000; this has been paid in
full, together with the lot on which it
stands, and the parsonage and grounds
on Seminary street, 80 that the church
and parsonage will be dedicated to the
service of God free of debt. For this
happy consumation we are largely in
debt to christians and business men of
various denominations in this commu-
nifty, throughout the state and out of the
state. And not tn mention names,
which might seem ipvidious where all
have been SO kind, sincere thanks are
given from full hearts to every one
who has helped us in tthis good work.
But in consequence of doing so much
for the house of God the church finds
itself in debt for the ordinary support
of the Gospel about $3.50. To pay this
amount also and so give the young
church good "send Off free from debt
of every description, the congregation
were invited to contribute. Under the
generalship of lawyer G. G. Noble of
St. Adams, this was soon raised, and
about $40 over, to provide Bibles and
hymn books for the choir and Sabbath
school. After an anthem the PRAYER
of dedication was offered by Rev. DR..
Archibald. Hymn 933 OF the Psalmist
was then sung and the congregation
dismissed with the benediction by
President Hsmlin. =

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS.

The experience of all the publishers
Of the Register in the past has shown
that the greatest difficulty in making a
paper pay for improving itself is the
losses occasioned by the credit system,
which are much larger in the case of
newspapers than is suspected by tie
pubic.
While appreciating the fact that
long custom has habituated many val
ned and sure paying subscribers TO the
practice of paying when convenient"
we know of no way of avoiding the
losses by bad debts except by adopting
the rule of requiring payment in adj
vance.
We would therefore give notice that
on the first day of February next all
subscribers in arrears OH the books
of the Register and Addison County
journal will be dropped from ouI
list, and all subscriptions will thereaf'
ter be discontinued at expiration un'
less previously renewed.
We propose 10 furnish SO good a pa
per that every Addison County family
will want it, and we trust all our sub
scribers will see the propriety OF ar
arrangement by which only we car
afford to make the paper what it ought
to be. Give us your subscriptions and
we will furnish you better paper
than ever before.

TRev. George Pentecost says i

VRev. George Pentecost says in
the Independent that the conversion OF
sinners is becoming lost art. Per-
hsps it Is because the right kind of la
borers at the business are becoming
scarce. There have been recent in
stances to show that really enthusiast
tic and believing evangelist still has
power to wake up the hearts of unbe-
levers, but they are rarely called to
occupy millionaire pulpits. The
trouble in the chu riches, however, is
doubtless one hard to reach by the Or
binary pastor, as the average church
member at heart shrinks from a
"waking-up" of the converting kind.
