All the Protestant Congregations to Join
in Service Thursday Morning.
Fr several years it has been the custom of
all the Protestant congregations in this town
to hold Joint service in one of the churches
on the morning of Thanksgiving Day and to
take up an offering to be devoted to some
general and worthy. object. In accordance
with this custom union service will be held
in the Primitive Methodist church. corner of
Jardin and Oak streets, on Thursday morn
ing, next at 1890 o'clock. The program ar
ranged for the occasion is as follows; Organ
voluntary invocation; hymn, THE God of
harvest praise" prayer, Rev. Sechrist, pastor
of the English Lutheran church; anthem !;
scripture lesson, Rev. Robert O'Boyle, pastor
of the Trinity Reformed church hymn,
Before Jehovahs awful throne' thanks
Meredith, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal
church hymn, Great God of nations, "
with doxology and benediction
By general consent of the pastors it has
been decided that the thanks offering that
will be given at the service shall be donated
for the purchase of magazines and papers to
be placed in the public reading room which is
maintained by Hope Section No. 10, Junior
Templars of Honor and Temperance, in the
Beddall building. The reading room has
already been conducive of much improve
ment in the habits of many young men and
an advance in similar work is expected this
winter, so that the clergymen of the town
