Church of the Redeem
er.-The reception to Rev. and Mrs.
Gregory on Wednesday evening October
9. was we'll attended by the members OF
the congregation and friends OF the
parish. The pastor and wife were hearth
" greeted and very pleasant social
time enjoyed. Mr.. and Mrs. Gregory
already have abundant testimony that
they are among good friends.
WISCONSIN, Monroe. = We have
the finest church edifce in town. The
repairs have made it thing OF beauty.
The memorial windows eight in number,
harmonic with the decorations, and the
new carpet and all appear to good ad-
vantage with the aid of the electric
LIGHTS which were placed in the high
ceiling and on the organ. We dedicated
it. by giving a concert for the benefit OF
the Childrens Home Society of Mllwau-
kee. and raised fifty dollars to help the
little ones to a home.
We have recently formed a young
peoples society and have called 1T the
Vestry Club. and at present we have
one hundred twenty five members. we
look forward to good winters work.
MISSOURI,-La PIata.-Rev F. M.
Yates. who breaches for this parish part
of his time, writes us that the ladies OF
the church here gave meals during the
fair and raised money sufficient to buy
a new hne-toned bell, which completes
our beautiful new church. They have
also supplied the pews with new hymn
nal. and we think we are entering upon
a new season of prosperity.
PENNSYLVANIA. = Til e E rie
Church. Rev. Howard Mac Queary has
resigned the pastoral charge of the Uni
yersalist church at Erie to take effect
about November l. The resignation has
been accepted by the Trustees, we are
assured, quite reluctantly. The Erie
Times reports that the impossibility OF
raising sufficient amount OF money TO
conduct the work is the only reason for
Mr.. Mac Queary's retirement. The
Times further says that he has succeeded
in doing splendid work in Erie and it
is unfortunate that he is not able to be
supported.
Mr.. Mac Queary is now open to an
engagement with any parish which may
want pastor and can give him an ade-
auate support. We trust that he may
find position where he may be able to
do good work for our church.

1896. They appeal with confidence to
those who so generously responded in
the beginning, feeling that they will not
forego the privilege of sharing in the
maintenance of what their generosity
has SO nobly inaugurated. They appeal
to the Individual members of the Church
throughout the land to do something
according to their ability. to lift up the
standard of Universalism and keep it
aloft in a foreign land. They appeal to
the clergy and to the parishes over
which they are placed to take up the
work earnestly and promptly and to re-
port the results of their canvass at an
early day. so that the Board may be able
to make provision for the work of the
ensuing year.
1t is recommended and urged as one
means of securing the desired sum that
special contribution for the Mission be
taken in all the churches on the first
Sunday" or on such date near the one
named as may be more convenient for
the purpose named. Blank forms of
pledges have been printed, and these
slips. with copies of this circular will be
mailed to pastors and others on applica-
ton to the Financial Secretary. Rev.
Henry w. Rugg. Providence, r. l. Re-
turns of pledges and contributions
should be addressed to him.

tanned at Tokyo. in which considerable
number Of native japanese students
have been prepared for the Christian
ministry. The following japanese gen
tlemen have been ordained; Hizedc
Yoshimura, Hisanari Hoshino, and Gen
iiro Yamada. These native preachers
together with seven native assistants
are actively engaged in the work under
direction of the Missionaries. A Japan
csc Universalist Convention has been
organized. In addition to these activi-
ties paper has been published in the
Japanese language by the Mission, and
school for girls has been maintained
at Tokyo, in which not only the English
language has been taught, but distinct
Christian impression has been made
upon such of the female population as
came within the scope of the Missions
influence. Arrangements have been
made for kindergarten instruction and
for fitting Japanese for teaching by that
system. Other school facilities have
been established at Shizuoka and else
where, and are now doing a successful
work
The foregoing is only brief outline
OF what has been done in japan in the
name of the Universalist Church. Ger
tainly the record and the outlook are
most encouraging.
The Trustees now ask for contribu
ton to carry on the work for the year
1896. Under the plan of raising money
which was adopted at the last session OF
the Convention in Washington it was
hoped that sufficient amount would be
secured to take care of our home work
and provide for japan also. But owing
to the financial stringency and the diff
Guilty in getting the plan into operation
the resources of the Convention have
not been adequate. This appeal is there
fore made for special contribution for
the Mission in Japan. We appeal to all
those who were among the original sup

other persons as may have become inter
ested in it through what it has accomp-
lished. We feel that it is one of the
noblest fruits of the generosity and ac-
tivity of the Universalist Church, and
that there is sufficient to show that the
expenditures thus far have not been
made in vain. Whatever zeal was felt
in the initiation of the movement should
be aroused anew to maintain it and
carry it forward TO yet greater success.
The missionaries in the field have given
demonstration Of their fidelity and fitness
for the work. They constitute noble
band of consecrated and devoted serv-
ants in our glorious faith. They should
not lack willing and generous support
nor the means needful to meet progress
sive demands.
The Trustees ask for contribution of
$4,000 to meet the expense of the year

THE JAPAN MISSION.
AKRON. o..

The Trustees of the Univerealist Gen.
eral Convention in calling for fresh
contribution in behalf of the Japan
Mission, gratefully recall all that has
been accomplished in this important
cause. Six years ago the subscription
was completed of upwards of 100000.
This subscription was intended to NEST
the expense of the mission for a period
of five years. 1t has actually covered
period of six years. The average annual
expense therefore has been about &c.,
600.
At the outset two men were sent into
the ftl After the lapse of two years
another man was added to the mission
force. Since that time still another
man and woman have been sent out.
After four year of arduous service Rev.
DIR. Perrin retired. Miss Schouler. by
reason of ill health, was obliged to re
turn after some three years of faithful
work. The Missionaries now under en-
gagement are the following: Rev. /. Wal
lace Cate. Rev. Clarence E. Rice, Rev.
Edgar Leavitt, and Miss Catherine Os-
born.
The accomplishments of the Mission
are truly gratifying, more than justify
ing the anticipations of those most deep
ly interested in it's promotion. Preach
ing Stations have been established at
nine important points in japan viz: The
Central Church, Tokyo; t. meikcucho,
Tokyo; Shizuoka; Okitso; Osaka; Ho-
Gen; Sendal; Nagoya; Fukuoka.

AKRON LETTER.
CANVASS OF THE CHURCHES,

The representatives of the College in
accordance with the wishes of the
Trustees and the resolution passed by
the Ohio State Convention at Cleveland,
have visited several of the churches to
solicit funds for the Institution. The
canvass has been delayed for obvious
reasons and has only just begun. 1t
will be continued, however until all
churches in the State and in the terri
tory adjacent to the cole Ga. have been
visited.
The success, financially. thus far has
not been eminently successful. but there
are some encouraging features about it.
The parishes visited are not rich in
worldly goods, in fact are the reverse of
that, and the hard time has left its i'm
print deeply upon them. Yet they have
responded cheerfully and have in every
case manifested a spirit of loyalty to
Buchtel. The pastors, with scarcely
an exception. have warmly welcomed
the Financial agent and Miss Bortle to
their pulpits and made endeavors to fur
Their their efforts. In some, most cases,
they have entered into the work with
spirit and enthusiasm and thus greatly
facilitated the work of the canvassers.
To encourage the parishes yet to be
visited | publish here the list of the
churches seen and the amount subscrib-
ed on the three years plan:

WASHINGTON ASSOCIATION.

The first Conference meeting of Wash
ipgton Association for the present year
was held at Beverly. September % and
30. Revs. j. r. Carpenter, Carrie w.
Brainard and j. w. McMaster were
present. Owing to failure. through
oversight, of editor of the village paper
to publish notice, the local attendance
was not large, but the meetings accom-
plished good. The church has been put
in very good condition, and was decorat-
ed for the recent meeting, and reor-
ganization with four new members has
been effected. Bro. Carpenter writes:
1.-THE children of the old Universalists
are aroused and are anxious to do some
thing, but they are few in number.

trymen. 1t is said that about 60 per cent.
of the sailors in the United States navy
are American born This is a great inn
provement over what il was ten or fifteen
years ago. Then the percentage was in
favor of the fOreign-born sailors. The i'm
provement in the service dates from the
encouragement given to the apprentice
system.
Lee Boland has cruised all over South
American waters and the Pacific ocean,
and he was with the Richmond, under
Admiral ellis, in Brazil, when the republic
was established and Dom Pedro dethron-
ed. He could fill volume Of interest
ing "reminiscences of his seven years in the
navy. Still ambitious to perfect himself
for the position of gunner, he was trans
ferred from the Yorktown to the gunnery
class at Washington, where he spent six
months at study. Then he went TO the
naval station at Newport and received fur
Their instructions in gunnery. At the end
OF his second enlistment he had reached
the grade Of seaman gunner At the COM
mencement of his third enlistment he
continued the study of ordnance aboard
various ships, still having in view posi-
ton of gunner
Finally he was ordered before a board
of examiners to ascertain whether he was
qualified for a warrant officers position
1t was found that his conduct report was
perfect, for during his eutire service he
mad never been punished, and was also
decorated with a good conduct medal
That was good starter. AS the examina-
ton progressed 1t was discovered that Bo-
land was not only thoroughly equipped in
the ordnance branch of the service. but he
was equally proficient in seamanship He
passed an excellent examination, but 1t
was discovered that there was not a va
cancy in the gunners grade. His excellent
knowledge Of seamanship was at once rec
ognized and he was asked if he would ac-
cept an appointment as boatswain, at the
same salary as that of a gunner. with the
same relative rank and allowance. He re
piled in the affirmative, and Yesterday he
received his appointment. The position
of boatswain requires practical knowledge
of every part Of a ship. The position is
actually that of assistantfto the navigator
in handling the ship in action. His posi-
ton is on the forecastle. and he is a direct
aid to the navigating officer, His sea pay
is $1,000 a year. 4~
Having made all the arrangements for
assuming his new duties on any ship to
which he may be ordered, he was granted
a short leave of absence, which he pro-
poses to spend with his delighted mother
and sisters at Columbus,
Lee B0land is only25 years old, and his
rapid advancement from an apprentice
boy to his present rank is due entirely TO
his own industry and nieritorious con-
duct Political influence has cut no fig
ure in his promotions and to-day he is as
proud as if he was the admiral of the
North Atlantic squadron He is a living
example of what an America Georgia
boy can accomplish through his own eff
forts. While it is true Aevery boy who
enlists in the navy may not be able to
reach a warrant officers position, but
there is an independent living and a wide
experience in the navy for hundreds of
bright boys in the United States.
