EATON.
Mrs. III. M. Young. clerk of our church
at Eaton, reports: "Our Sunday-school
and Young Peoples Christian Union are
doing we'll. Being without pastor 30
long generally affects these meetings to
some extent. We have just purchased
a piano for the church. With the piano
and two comets we have lively and good
music. We hope soon to find minister
whom we can locate. and be in good
running order again."
There are good ministers, by the dozen,
available for Eaton and all vacant
churches.
HAMILTON.
We find the following telegram in the
Cincinnati Daily Enquirer of September
28th.
HAMILTON, ONO, September 27.-The
Universalist church of this city is to have
lady minister. This was decided at the
last meeting of the trustees of the church.
Their selection is Miss Mary Andrews, the
accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Robert N. Andrews, of East High Street.
Miss Andrews is a graduate of Buchtel
College, of the class of 1896, when she took
high honors. Miss Andrews will take
charge the first of October"
Since the announce ment OF the resig
nation of Rev. r. E. Olmsted, the Ham
ilton church has had numerous applica-
tions for the passionate. but have finally
decided that the wisest course was to
choose young woman, who from her
youth has been devoted member and
worker in the church at home and at
large. Prior to entering Buchtel College
she was the Missionary of the Woman's
Universalist Missionary Alliance, and
did excellent work for that valuable
auxiliary. From the beginning of the
Young Peoples Christian Union she
has been active in every way in promot-
ing the welfare of that organization. and
is at present the corresponding Secre-
tary of the Ohio State Union. In every
respect she is we'll qualified for the re-
sponsible position to which she has been
called, and her many friends throughout
the state will join in hearty prayers for
her success.
AKRON.
DIR. HI. L. Garfield in business letter
writes: "Buchtel College opens with
about one hundred and fitty-fve stu
dents. and with Freshman class Of
thirty-eight. Everybody seems happy
in Akron, and everything looks hope
full. r. A. Rev. Church has already
made good impression upon those who
have met him and heard him, and
judge that he is the right man in the
right place."
PERSONAL AND OTHERWISE.
In our report of Central Ohio Asso-
citation held at Caledonia recently, we
accidentally omitted naming the church
at Mount Gilead in the list of churches
represented. But accidents will hap
pen." etc. Mount Gilead was we'll repre-
sented.
Rev. Carrie W. Brainard, of Little
Hooking, has one Sunday to give to
some vacant church. The fact that she
is now in the eighth year of her pastor.
ate at Little Hooking. is strong evil
dence of her ability as a minister and
her value as pastor.
All Souls Church, Cleveland, con-
tributed nearly $50 to the "Cent-a-Day"
fund, one-h half of which was returned to
the Ohio Universalist Convention, and
was duly acknowledged. but not in the
quota column OF the Convention Circu-
lar, as that is devoted to payments made
direct from churches to the State Con-
vention.
