Rev. R. M. Houghton on Beauests.

! At the Centre Congregational church
| Sunday morning Rev. Roy M. Houghton
referred to the requests of John S. Ken
! nedy and said as long as there was human
, society on earth Mr.. Kennedy would con-
tinue to exert wholesome influence in
it. Mr. Houghton also said it would be
helpful to any who have requests to make
to note the great variety of objects which
were remembered. The experience of two
large requests which have been left to
this town might discourage others in max
ing requests. One of these funds which
has made possible one of the greatest
blessings that can come to any community,
the Memorial hospital, has scarcely re-
ceived an expression of gratitude from
the town. And in the community we have
not heard one word of gratitude for the
one who made this gift to the community.
But we have heard so much wrangline
over the administration of it that one
wonders if its good influence has been
greater than the evil
Another benevolent soul desiring to ex-
ert Christian influence and to help some
unfortunate beings after his death, be-
queathed large fund to the town. But
the community has shown its lack of APP
probation of that gift and its disregard
for the wishes of the giver by tieing it mp
so no one is receiving any benefit from it.
The ungrateful attitude of the town to-
wards its would-be benefactors might tend
to discourage others in making requests.
A study of the requests of Mr.. Kennedy
would indicate many avenues through
which those requests may benefit human
ity for all time and in accordance with the
wishes of the benefactor.
