Mrs Thackery is National superintendent of Soldiers and Sailors and has visited nearly every fort and camp in the United States and many in foreign countries. Thursday morning she wis., tied with few others the Soldiers Home at Noroton and organized a Christian Temperance Union there, gained 23 pledges as members of the Union. Nearly all of the ministers of Stamford addressed the Union or gave Scripture reading or prayers at some time during the convention. Thursday afternoon was given to reports. Hon M. J. Tanning of Philadelphia, the speaker for the evening, was introduc ed. His address was entitled, My country and yours" His humor in illustration of his points was very pleasing. Friday morning after de- votonal service was the election of off cers, which was the same as last year. H. H. Spooner also spoke few min utes. The presiding elder, J. J.
