The Congregational pulpit Was sup
piled last Sunday BY Rev. Irving Flint
Of Plymouth.
Monday evening the concert given BY
the united choruses from Norway, South
Paris and Bethel, assisted BY Mr. Miles,
Mrs. Lou Duncan Barney and Miss HAIR
riet Shaw, far exceeded what its most
enthusiastic friends had predicted for Il.
From musical standpoint Il was rare
concert, and underneath ell there were
90 many little gracious courtesies shown
that it bad . charm that the casual OBJ
server never could have appreciated, yet
L wsa one Of the many things that made
up grand whole. Bethel received her
guests In her most beautiful June attire,
and her people opened most gladly their
hospitable doors. The Grand Army very
graciously showed lts appreciation of
the help Of the Bethel chorus on Memo
rial Day by decorating the stage most
artistically. The RECONCILIATION by the
nine young ladies OF the different nations
was most beautiful In Its effect. OF the
musical program, only musical critic
could do justice, but lover OF music
could express words Of praise and ad-
miration. Prof. Chapman Is always at
his best In bis native tOwn-there is a
union OF appreciation between leader
and audience. He IL always generous to
give Bethel the best, and In return she
Is proud Of her director. Mrs. Barney
Is always enjoyed by Bethel audience,
and the repeated applause given to
Miles, and as often generous response
given by the artist, was proof OF the de-
light Of his listeners. Miss Shaw was
the frat to introduce harp playing by
an artist to Bethel audience, and she
was greatly enjoyed. All missed the
bright, lovely face Of Mrs. Chapman,
who Is so loved by Bethel people, and all
regretted her necessary absence 10 New
