The Way We Fasted.

Friday, in obedience to the governor:
wishes as set forth in the Fast Day procla-
nation, people for the most part refrained
from labor, and arrayed in their store
clothes, posed gracefully at the street cor.
ners, very evidently discussing affairs OF
national Importance and offering up a
sweet smelling sacrifice in the shape OF
cheap cigars.
Not a few humiliated themselves by
spending the day in hunting, and many
humble penitents performed pilgrimages
on the cars to the homes of thsir kins-
folk and acquaintance in other towns,
where they tasted m new maple sugar,
hot biscuits and other bitter meats for the
modification of the flesh.
The majority, it is feared, forgot to as
semble in their usual places OF worship, or
else construed that clause of the procla-
nation literally and remained at home, or
betook themselves to more enticiDg
haunts.
A goodly number, however, we're pres
ent at the union service held in the morn
ing at the Christian church, and listened
to an interesting sermon by the Rev. @.
w. Morrow, who took for his theme the
struggle Of the Church Militant against
the folly and wickedness OF the world.
A Good Friday service was held in st.
Johns church at 10 a. m, with sermon
and an Offering for the conversion of the
Jews.

Death of Mrs. Angeline Kendrick.

Mrs. Angeline T. (Ainsworth), widow
OF the late DR.. Asahel Kendrick, died Sat
urday Of Bright's disease at the home OF
her son in-law, Rev. e. E. Herrick, in
Milton.
Mrs. Kendrick was born in Brookfeld,
Dec. 7th, 1870, and in 1s4S came to Ran
dolph, where her husband was for many
years prominent physician. Except for
three years they spent in Bethel, they re-
sided in this village from that date until
the death OF DR.. Kendrick about i've years
ago, when his wife went to Milton to live
with her daughter.
The remains were brought here for buri-
al by Rev. and Mrs. Herrick, Miss Ella
and Mr.. Edward Herrick, and the funeral

A Plan of Church Work.

The pastors OF the Cong'l, Christian anc
Baptist churches read to their respective
congregations Sunday the following reso-
lutions, which it was voted to adopt:
The arrangement and conduct of the
sunday services has been a subject fol-
careful and continuous study by the pas
tors. whose constant aim it is to make
these services helpful and keep them from
being burdensome. The tendency of the
churches has been to put as many Of our
religious meetings as possible into one
day, until the present arrangement has
nnally become wearisome to many on
whom We rely as faithful helpers in church
work.
Beginning with choir rehearsal ct 8
O'Clock Sunday morning, some are, with
little intermission, occupied with the
morning worship, Sunday school, Junior
meeting at p. m, young peoples meet
ing al 5;3o p. m. and the church service
following; SO that from a. m. to 9 D. m.
they have little time to themselves. Many
others, also, feel the pressure of these con-
tinuous meetings.
The question OF union services, too, is
a subject for much thought. To work
tremendously for the common end of
Christ's kingdom, and at the same time
give each church the fullest opportunity
10 develop its own resources, is the prob
lem. Union worship should be made spir-
ituaily profitable and not degenerate into
mere religious pastime.
One year ago, union Sunday evening
services were continued from the week OF
prayer until the last OF March. 1t seemed
wise then not to continue them longer,
and II seems wise now to make one more
change.
The young peoples work is another
problem. 1t has become, like the Sunday
school. distinct branch of church work,
and has been allotted place accordingly.
A careful consideration has been given TO
these complex problems by the pastors,
and they are agreed in submitting the fol-
lowing propositions to the churches:
Discontinue the union meetings until
July.
Give the evening from O'Clock on to
the young people in their separate church.
es, and make their work more important
than il can be in the present rush.
Let the church cooperate with the
Young people, and, while the young peo-
pies societies are responsible for the con-
duct OF the meetings, let them feel the
support and cooperation of the church
also.
Let the pastor cooperate with the lead
er of the meeting in such a way as shall
be mutually helpful; and il it shall seem
best, let the pastor use fifteen minutes to
open or close the meeting.
The pastors unite in commencing this
plan of work to the church for the COM
ing three months, feeling assured that it
opens the way for fruitful results
