CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR FELLOWSHIP
MEETING.
The Christian Endeavor society in
vited few of the neighboring socie-
ties to join in district rally, Tuesday
evening, April 2. New Preston and
Bridgewater responded with good del
egations in spite of the threatening
weather. Rev George F. Prentiss OF
New Haven and H. H. Spooner of
Kent made very interesting and help
full addresses. The former urged upon
the young people the necessity of hav-
ing high ideals. He told how in his
youth he adopted one and another as
his ideal and. attempted to follow in
their footsteps but in each case he
found his model was in some respects
imperfect and unsatisfactory, until he
found Jesus Christ and then he was
satisfied. He recommended Jesus
as the perfect man whom it was safe
for every young person to follow. Mr.
Spooner, after some witty remarks on
the character of his invitation to
speak, said he thought he could bring
words of encouragement in three d.
rections. AS he went about the state
he had observed in some societies i'm
provement in social lines of work, in
others in the practical work, and in
others in spiritual lines. He illustra
ted the latter by very touching &C
count of young man in factory who
in the most unfavorable circumstances
that can be imagined, lived true life
and showed such a Christian spirit as
to melt the hearts of the Scoffers
around him and 26 out of 20 men in
that department were converted. At
ter the addresses the president invit-
ed the visiting and in fact all who
were present to join in social time
and to go down to the dining room
and partake of refreshment which the
ladies had provided. OF the large au-
dience present goodly number &C
copied the invitation and it is thought
that all found the occasion a pleasant
and profitable one.
