garding the closing of all the churches
except the one where the Memorial SER
vices are held the Sunday evening be-
fore Memorial day. 1t has been the
custom for many years past and COM

E. Wildman expresses himself as Of the
1 opinion that the town has outgrown the
present not church in town that is
capable of accommodating comfortably
many more than its own congregation
and on the occasion of the Memorial
services in any, one of the churches it
is impossible to seat all who wish to
hear the services, and many go because
the other places of worship are closed,
and the consequence is that at least
half Of the church -goers have to stay
away from church that evening.
