 THE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH. Dr Herman delivered a sermon from the pulpit, last Sunday morning, simi- lar in style and theme to one he l preached here about eight years ago. l The theme was Don't Worry and it l sermon he has preached here this sum- mer. He kept his congregation wide awake with story and illustration and his comparisons were most apt and sug- gestive. It was a sermon well worth listening to, and good enough for any congregation in New England.

 We regret to state that one of ou most estimable young ladies has en gagged her services in one of the office of The North 6 Judd Manufacturin, Co.,, at New Britain so that her pres ence will not be seen here for an in definite time. We allude to Miss Ill Hoffman, only daughter of MT and MT Herman Hoffman on Christian street It was supposed her recent stay ther was only a visit to relatives. but new came back last week that She had de cided to make the above mentioned cit. her home in future. This village cal i'll spare such as it has in other case : seemingly frequent the past ten year but the writer sincerely hopes thi | move may be greatly to Miss Illa' gain in all respects. She now joins tw brothers who are in the employ or tn same firm there, leaving behind her host of friends and well wishers be sides her parents and eldest brothe who greatly miss her and almos causes them to feel weary and restles amid their present surroundings. 1t i wrong perhaps to wish any back, bu the absences from this village and vi r cinity the past few years have beer . deeply felt, and has had a certain de pression on this place most plainly fel and seen, socially as well as in a busi ness way. It seems to be fate respect ing villages little back from railroad stations and causing factories in ou1 cities to rise higher. Progress points tt J make a bright and financially a shin ing mark in their business career bu in the great majority of cases is there really more saved than when making and pursuing faithful business course near the home of their nativity? Stil it is just as natural as running water fol young mans ambition to expand a: well a.s aspire and while few truly ane markedly succeed, all of right ambi tions reach out longingly for that goa which at times seems just before then but seldom reached to their full satis faction. So we have to-day with the rest, .tGo West" or somewhere when your thoughts center about the place you honestly think most advan- tageous and may you all be successful. While few grow rich all learn in va rious ways what would be only known in mind, here and may mature and | T how Ch 11dn he
