Meeting OF Universalists.

The Central Association of Univer-
salists held here last week proved to
be a very pleasant and profitable
occasion. The gathering was not
large, owing to the fact that Morris
vile is situated at one side of the
territory included in the limits of the
association, and therefore all who
attended the meeting had to come
from a considerable distance and
were at considerable expense to get
here. Besides, the season is very
busy one, and we'll filled with the
gatherings of organizations of al
most all kinds. And then again,
politics has engrossed the attention
OF people of late quite as much as
religion.
The first session of the association
was held Thursday afternoon, and
opened with prayer by Rev. I'll. A.
Abbott of Girard, Penn, who will be
remembered as q recent pastor of
the Universalist church at Stowe.
Then came the organization of the
Council which consisted of the usual
formalities of the organization of all
such bodies. Rev. DR.. Booth vel
coined the association to Morris
vile in a felicitous little address in
behalf of his church, to which |. n.
LeBarron, president of the associ-
alton, heartily responded in behalf of
that body.
Rev. Walter Dole of Mortified then
gave most admirable address upon
GA More Earnest Conservation, the
great need Of Vermont church." 1t
was an address replete with noble
thoughts, and one long to be remem-
bered by all who heard it. A solo
by Miss Alice Gle followed the ad-
dress, and was finely rendered.
Rev. D. Ball of Bellows Falls, State
Superintendent of Churches, then
spoke on the subject, "Light on the
Way" The address was practically
a report of the condition of the
churches of the denomination
throughout the state and showed
them to be in very healthy condition.
Mrs. Walter Churchill followed the
duul6SS ny a. SOlO Ill ueE Iullui UdUle
way. The subject, "Why the Young
Should Interest themselves in Re-
ligion," proved fruitful and inter
esting theme for a discourse by the
Rev. F. R. Gale of Stowe.
Rev. Grant VanBlarcom of Wash
ington, Vt, than gave a very spirited
and interesting talk upon "Some OF
the Essentials OF the Growing
Church"
At 1880 p. M, after a brief praise
service led by the choir, Rev. j. E.
Wright of Montpelier gave a very in
teresting account of his recent visit
aud few days stay upon the island of
Martinique.
Rev. Fife K. M. Jones of Barre,
preacher of the Association sermon,
was the last speaker of the day. Her
theme, THE Power for Good in the
World of a Consecrated Body of Men
and Women" was handled in a
mastery manner and left a deep i'm
pre-. sion upon all who heard it.

Friday morning the first in order t

Friday morning the first in order
was the report of parishes in the
limits of the Association. These
showed an increase along all lines
during the past year. These reports
were followed by reports of commit
tees and the election of officers for the
ensuing year.
After an anthem from the choir,
Hon. l.. G. Moody of Waterbury read
a very instructive and interesting
paper on "The Layman's side of the
Church Question" He sho owed that
the pulpit and the pew must work to-
gether if the greatest good to the
greatest number was to come through
the work of the church. That the
people had not done their whole duty
when they paid the minister his salary,
even though they paid it promptly !:
it was as much their duty to attend
church as to pay the minister.
Rev. Francis Kimball of Williams
town said some most excellent
things in paper on "The Needs of
the Small Sunday Schools" Parents
should go with, not send, their child
rem to the Sunday school. Teachers
should thoroughly prepare and faith
fully cOnsecrate themselves to the
work. The teacher as we'll as the
taught would thus be mutually bene-
fitted.
Rev. Walter Dale in a brief but
beautiful address gave an account OF
the origin and intended use of COM
munion, which after a solo, "My
Mothers Hymn" touchingly rem
dered by Miss Brenda Harris, the
communion was celebrated.
At the opening of the afternoon SER
vices, the report OF the Committee on
Resolutions, tending the thanks OF
the Association to the people of Nor
risvlle for their generous hospitality
and to the ladies of the church for
their abundant provision for all ma
terial wants. The business of the
meeting was then declared closed.
Mrs. Maria Tinker, President of the
Woman's Centenary Association OF
Vermont, gave an account of the do
ings of the association, and of her
trip to the National Association at
Albany.
Rev. Chas. Petty, Sec'y of the State
Y. p. Z. o., being present and called
upon gave a very spirited and
timely address upon the condition,
need and prospects of that organiza-
ton and the duties OF local Y. P. C.
Z. in their relation to it.
The closing address was by the
Rev. A. f. WaIch of St. Johnsbury on
the Origin and Growth of the Doe
trines of Universalism. 1t was a
thoughtful, timely and mastery pre-
sentation of the sui ject, which is now
the all absorbing one of the church.
Is Universalism a truth that has
come to stay
This closed the services of the meet
ing, and all who attended declared
it, if not in size, one in spirit and aim
such as would do credit to any or
ganizatiOn OF whatever kind orname.
The ladies of the church deserve
much credit for the wav and manner

1t isn't always necessary TO be mar
ried in order to enjoy the ridiculous
discomfOrts of wedding journey. That
fact has been discovered by writer's OF
fiction before this; but, says the Min
neapOhs journal, it was borne in upon
a young lady whose home is in the Mid
way district recently in d way th9N she
will not soon forget. The Unoit a.
fair was a practical joke, but in the
end the jokers found they had builded
better than they knew. That, how
ever, is anticipating the story.
The young lady in question went
down TO Chicago some months ago to
visit relatives. While there she met
number of young persons, and, as
she is something Of practical joker,
she hadn't been there long before sew
eraI of them were lust aching for q
chance TO get eyen."
Finally their opportunity came. a
day was set for the visitors depart
ure, and the crowd went down to the

man, the friend of one of the boys, who
was also on his way TO Minneapolis,
