MONROE.

AT THE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
 Rev William H. Waggoner. of Buffalo, N. Y., now at Yale university, will give two missionary addresses in the Monroe Congregational church, Sunday, April 2S. The aim of MT Waggoner is to give the audience comprehensive grasp of the world mission fields of all the denom- nations. As this can best be done through the eye, MT Waggoner's large maps, the largestEmaps of the kind in the world, will be used. The Tonawan. da News of Western New York says, (July 30, '94): "Last night at the South side Christian church Rev W. H. Wag- goner of Yale College, delivered his lee ture on the missions and missionary boards of the world. The interest was heightened by the use of large map, showing the exact location of the mis- sion fields. It was wonderful, the inti- mate knowledge the speaker displayed in pointing out the sites of mission la- DOT and the strength of the forces in the various mission fields. For a compre- hensive grasp of the missionary work of the world there Is nothing better than what we saw and heard, last night"
