TEMPERANCE WORKERS IN co UECIL.
A Glimpse of Norfolk and a Christian
 Home.

Home.
 The Litchfeld county convention of the W. c. T. U. was held last week at Norfolk, Conn.,, at 1O.3O A. NJ. on We'd nesday.
 The meeting was called to order by the president, Mrs. J. A. Strong. The ladies were welcomed to the hospitali- ties of the town and the church in a courteous speech full of kindly feeling by Mrs Bach of Norfolk and responded to by Mrs George Wheeler of Winsted Reports were then presented from Els worth, New Milford, Norfolk, Sharon and Winsted. In some places the out look was very encouraging. Temper ance classes had been formed and lec- lures had been given on the subject. The public sentiment was being edu- cated towards prohibition and the young people were being enlisted in the work. An interesting paper by Mrs Rogers of New Milford was read on the import ance of temperance work among the children, after which the ladies adjourn ed to the chapel, where a collation. was spread for the benefit of the visitors.
 The Norfolk ladies have an enviable reputation for generous hospitality and they excelled their former efforts at this time. The mission band had charge of this part of the programme and to them especially great credit is due.
 No part of the meeting was entered into more heartily than the devotional exercises, led by our enthusiastic, ener- getic state president, Mrs s. B. Forbes of Rockville, after which Mrs Mary Beach told us what century of tenn perance work had done for us and then came the speech of the day for us, that given by Mrs c. R. Buell., national cor responding secretary. The spirit of the earnest worker, the living, active soul of
Connecticut western news., 1885-07-08

a loving Christian woman shone in her face, animated her manner and enthus- ed her hearers. "Our accomplishing so little should never be a cause for dis couragement-God was never i'll hur- ", yet his work went always on" She proved by facts given that using fer mented wine at the communion table was an evil and should be stopped. She described the great success of the kitch- en garden work in Yonkers and urged the young ladies to have and to present the temperance autograph album to their gentlemen friends and she closed by proving the great necessity of sowing the land deep with Christian temper ance literature.
 The question book was opened and the questions answered chiefly by Mrs Buell.; then came singing and the bene- diction by Rev Mir Beach of Norfolk.
 In the evening Miss Greenwood of Brooklyn lectured. We could not de- scribe it; 1t was full of the life and elo- quence of that talented temperance worker and was splendid all the way through. The next morning she gave Bible exposition and then we adjourned, charmed with our visit, benefited by the work of the convention and heartily glad that we were one of the temper ance band. The audience were large and deeply interested.
 The town itself is beautiful for situ- ation and has many lovely homes. We visited the unique new Robbins school house, presided over by Rev Mir Beach, assisted by graduates from Yale and Smith colleges; we crossed the rustic bridges over the swiftly running brook; went through the picturesque park, with its fanciful rustic entrances; drank of the cool water from the vine embow- cred we'll; crossed over to the pretty parsonage, now waiting for an occupant; visited the free reading room. built and furnished and provided with papers and magazines from all over the world by the thoughtful hberality of Miss FL dridge; then we went on to the lovely Eldridge home, with everything that money and Q love of the beautiful can supply, both in the house and out of it, to make a model home. Tapestries, marbles, paintings, many things rare and lovely were there presided over by the Misses and young Mir Eldridge, but above all their home was adorned with the spirit of true Christian courtesy, which showed by word and deed that great wealth does not spoil every one.
 Their father was for 42 years the hon. ored and loved pastor of the Norfolk church. A marble tablet and magnifi- cent stained glass window at the rear of the altar showed that his memory was honored, but his people love him still and in their hearts seems to be q never dying remembrance of his Christian life and work.
 His children seem to be doing very much for the town and to be worthy of all that they inherit
