CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH TOPICS.

1.-THE ISLES SHALL WAIT FOR HIS LAW"
 For centuries the islands that thickly dot the southern Pacific had been waiting for some influence to be brought to them | from Christian lands that would throw some little light on their dark night of gross heathenism. This light came in the early part of this century through the labors of some heroic men and women ly and severed their relations with all they held dear more thoroughly than did Abraham when he left UT of the Chal- dees for country that he knew not. The story of these heroic lives will be told next Sunday evening, August 19, at the missionary meeting to be held in the Congregational church at 7.30 o'clock. The exercise of the children will be pret- ty and instructive and the paper read by Miss Scudder will briefly tell of a most wonderful life. Following is the pro- gram:
 Opening hymn, Congregation Psalm.
 | Prayer.
 | Selection. Choir | Scripture.
 "The Lite of John G. Patton, missionary hero to the New Hebrides," Paper read by Miss Susie J. scudder "The Mission Ships, Evangels of Comfort and Peace," Exercise by the children Address, "A sketch of missions in the | South Seas," The Pastor | Selection, Choir | Hymn.
 l Benediction.
 A most cordial invitation is extended to this meeting. At the church prayer meeting on Tues day evening of next week, August 21, at 7.30 o'clock, it is expected that a report will be given by one who was present at the meetings of the great religious gath ering at old Orchard Beach.
 Next Tuesday there is to be Sunday school rally at Parlor Rock. Efforts will be made to organize party to go from Newtown. The ladies of the church are to give a 10 cent supper in the lower room one week from this (Friday) evening August | 24.

THE ORGAN RECITAL TONIGHT. .

At the Congregational church, this (Friday) evening, an organ recital will be given that should not fail of drawing a large audience. While the principal fea- ture of the evenings entertainment will be the rendering of music from the new Vocation organ recently put in the church, the other numbers of the pro- gram cannot fail to be of musical inter- est, comprising as they do vocal solos and duets and violin and -cornet solos with the organ accompaniment. A vo- calist of note from out-of-town will as- sist in the evenings entertainment and the members of the choir will also be heard in pleasing selections. AS is well known, tho proceeds are to go toward wiping out a small balance still due on the organ, which should be an additional incentive to attend, though this induce ment is not at all necessary, for the pro- gram will stand on it's merits and furnish a very enjoyable musica! evening to those who attend. Tickets for the entertain ment are on sale at the stores in the Street and at Warner, Taylor & Curtis Sandy Hook.

A GLORIOUS PICNIC AT LAKESIDE.

The annual picnic of the Congregations al Sunday school at Lakeside, Taunton, on Tuesday afternoon, will go down in history as the most enjoyable and suc- cessful gathering of the kind this school has ever held. Provision was made for number present exceeded 225. An or chestra from Mt Pleasant added to the pleasure of the gathering. Dinner was served at o'clock, and liter the blessing was asked by Rev MT Barker, the long line of people were soon at work. There were some brief after-dinncr speeches, intersperscd with singing. Superintend- ent Smith presided and called first on Dea Henry Fairchild, who ndulged in "reminiscences. M C. Rodgers had a pleasing announcement for the company
 In that Rev Mir Barker had accepted the call of the church and society to become its regularly installed pastor. A com mittee consisting of M c. Rodgers, w. NJ. Reynolds and A. F. Smith, represent ing the church and society, had been ap- puluJeu pTeNlOuSly LV "dlG Ou uIns anu Mir Rodgers happy announcement was the result. MT Rodgers spoke of the sat lsfaction of the people in Mir Barker decision. Rev Mr Barker, next called for, referred in a fitting manner to his connection with the Newtown church, and got even with the tOastmaster by tel ling a little story at his expense. Will liam Fairchild also spoke briefly. Then followed some races at the lake side. An amusing contest was the foot race be- tween 30 of the men of the parish. Dea
 Henry Fairchild entered the lists, and was given a handicap. He proved a winner. Rev Mir Barker was badly dis tanced. There was also a potato race, which was won by E. s. Lowell, three legged race, won by Fred Hubbell and Henry Moore, and a sack race for the boys. The boats were in demand. The
 porter would not forget to mention the pall game, the most remarkable play be- ing the three-bagger of Hervey Wheeler, who sent the ball quarter-mile or more into the lake. The company consumed about three 40-quart cans of lemonade. No one was allowed to go away thirsty.
