N|NTEY-THi|RD
Tho Vermont Central Baptist
Association Convention
At GRo7oN
The Largest Gain in Mems
bership Was in Barre.
At GRo7oN
Especial to TELERGAM.)

Groton, Sept. 13.-The Vermont
Central association is the smallest of
the Baptist associations in the state,
being composed Of only seven church
es. 1t is, however, one of the oldest
of these bodies, this being their 93rd
anniversary.
Formerly the name of this organl-
zation was the Barre association, be-
ing taken from the Baptist church
which existed in Barre in the latter
years of the 18th and the first years of
the 10th centuries.
The church became extinct and the
name of the association was changed
to the Vermont Central association.
These associations are merely delib-
erative in their character, there being
no legislative authority whatever vest
ed in them; since, in the Baptist de-
nomination, each church is indepen-
dent, and legislates for itself alone.
The sole purpose Of these annual
gatherings is to recount the years
work in the churches and to deliberate
as to improved methods and enlarged
work during the coming year.
The association was organized Tues
day afternoon by the choice Of Rev.
e. M. Fuller Of Barre as moderator,
Rev. G. W. Clough of Groton as clerk
and Mrs. e. T. Leland of Montpelier
as assistant clerk.
Words Of welcome were given by
Rev. G.. W. Clough, pastor of the en-
tertaining church and responded to by
the moderator.
The afternoon session was taken up
with the reading of letters from the
churches. These letters show total
net gain in the association of only Il,
none of the churches showing any net
loss. The largest gain was in Barre,
where 30 were added to the member
ship, giving net gain of 16. a notice
able feature of the letters was the in.
dicatiOn of marked increase in mis-
sionary activity in all the churches.
In the evening the church was we'll
| filled and the exercises were of special
interest. Rev. A. B. Belondi gave an
account of his work among the
Italians in Barre, which was listened
to with deep interest. Rev. T.. M.
Fuller preached the annual sermon
from Ezekiel 1928. 1t was a mission.
ary sermon, showing, first, that it is
Gods purpose that His name shall be
known among all nations, and second,
that this purpose is to be fulfilled by
His people showing the sincerity of
their professed faith in Him by the
eagerness and faithfulneSs with which
they seek to spread His gospel
throughout the world. Dea. Jetfer-
son Renfrew followed with very
carefully prepared paper on the "Use
and Abuse of Wealth..
The program of Wednesday was of
much interest, the subjects being
"What can be done to improve the
Sunday schools of the Vermont Cen
tral Association" a discussion to be
opened by Rev. VIM. j. Cloues OF
Montpelier; a symposium on "Do we
need more thorough discipline in our
churches?" an address on Minstrel
Education by Mr.. Cloues;"An Outline
of the History of the Baptist Church
in Sharon" Rev. L. B. Steele, pastor
of that church.
