express to him our deep appreciation
for his untiring labor in all departments
OF League work during the past two
years.
2. That the third department. the
Literary Department, in which he has
worked so faithfully. and for which he
has done so much not only in Tupelo
but also for all Leagues OF the South,
deplore his departure from among us,
and recognize its great loss in giving
him up.
3. That we recommend him to the
League of Gulfport as one of our best
members for conducting devotional
meetings, and as unsurpassed for work
IN the Literary Department of the
League.
4. That these resolutions be sent
to the Epworth Era, New Orleans Ad-
vocate and Tupelo papers for publica-
ton. and also that the secretary be in
structed to place a copy IN the League

 DESPITE A STORMY NIGHT A GOOD
 NUMBER TURN OUT TO HEAR MIR

 Wednesday night was a night that would spoil any event that called per son to move foot out of doors. Just to sit in ones home and listen to the rain batter upon the roof was enough to make one say within himself: M T51s fireside is good enough for me. "No- was said to Rev O. W. Barker as it was known that he even dreamed Of going down to Sandy Hook; but the nobody came into Glover's hall until 32 were counted. Rev O. O.. Wright presided and pleasantly introduced the the speaker. Those who were present made up in attention what was lack ing in numbers, and speaker and listen CT both seemed to enjoy the evening thoroughly. MT Barker opened his lecture by saying; Dear friends, my and at once l have splendid illustra- given to my good friend, Brother drizzly night that is offered to me. The rain, hOwev- CT, falls upon the just and the unjust; but whether Brother Wright is the just and I am the unjust 1 think we better call an ecclesiastical conference to decide" A hearty vote of thanks was extended the lecturer at the close and congratulations were exchanged that for once point had been scored against the weather.

HOWLAND'S
New Black Goods.

Some of the new black dress stuffs have come in. They each and everyone add point to the predic- tion that thin fabrics are to lead for spring-stuffs that cling close yet fall into graceful folds.
 Voiles are favorites. Voile is simply French for yelling, but these are French in fact as we'll as name. They have a delightful life and strength about them; we have to ac. knowledge the French beat us in some things. Not expensive, 75c, $1, $1.25 and $1.5O yd.
 Dotted eolienne with the dots so bright they gleam like satin. Rich. $1.5o yard.
 And crepes de chine. Plain but so luxurious. The weaving of silk and wool together almost seems to reach perfection in these. $1, $1.25, $1.5o and to $2.50 yard.
 Grenadines too. Many be- tween the sturdy old favorite iron frame at $1 yard and the newest fancy one $3. Some are as light as gossamer, some heavy enough to not require silk lining. Fancy effects run almost equally to stripes and figures and there are odd little quirks and turns to give piquance to the cobwebby fabric.
 -All-wool crepe de chine. From France and a beauty. Many women have fallen in love with it. 'Tis just enough heavier than tho silk and wool to suit lots of folks. $1 yd.
 There is striped voile from France too that merits a visit. $1.25 yd.

THE CHILDREN HAVE A PART.

was enthusiastically decided that the boys and girls have their part in the work of decorating the church. In deed, the work has taken such a hold upon the people that the ladies think they can go quite beyond the original church. It will be interesting to learn how the children plan to earn their money, for what they give is to come of thought and endeavor.
 1Charles M. Pratt, the genial owner of Snake Rock farm in Zoar, has very generously given his check for s25 to help in rolling up the fund for the church decoration. This is a very kind thing to do, as MT Pratt is under no obligation in any way to the church and simply does this out of the good ness of his heart because he wants to help the little church along.
 The pastor, Rev Otis w. Barker, was present at the meeting of the Fairfield North Auxiliary of the Con- necticut Sunday School Association, held in the Congregational church of Ridgetield on Tuesday, and gave an ad dress on "The Relation of the Home to the Sunday school" The day was nest charming one, and the climb up the hills from Branchville was much enjoyed.
 It was thought that when, on ac count of the church being in disordered state, the Sunday services came to be held in the prayer meeting room, the congregations would drop of decidedly. If last Sundays attendance is any cri- terion to go by, this is not to be true. The people crowded in until every seat was taken, although the weather was dismal and stormy. It will be planned next Sunday to have accom- modation for every one, no matter how many come.
