Radical Move OF a Boston Univer-
salist Society.
Boston, June If ordinances adopted
at the parish meeting of the Shawmut
Universalist chEl oh are carried out, that
society will soon be changed from a con-
ventional religious organization to a nom
sectarian peoples institute. An entire
new departure in the field of UNIVERSAL
ism will be organized. 1t is proposed to
rsise $4,000 and thereupon establish and
maintain a society devoted to cultivating
the social as wei. as the religious life of
its people, forming musical, literary and
perhaps w~orkingmen's clubs, teaching
sewing and other useful accomplishments
and supporting a coffee house. Religious
worship will be conducted or the broadcast
possible basis. The Shawmut church is
located in what was formerly the aristo-
cratic portion of the city, but the wealthy
class has moved away, and rather than
move also the society hopes to take ad-
vantage of the change and elevate the
people that now surround it. The Rev.
George L.. Perrin, former pastor, will take
charge of the work.
