Norwich bulletin., 1909-11-08

Sunday the union evangelistic cam paign held it's final meetings in the armory and will now shift to the Gen.. tral Baptist church as the place for holding the evening meetings, as the armory must be used by the two Coast Artillery companies for their drill sea- son. There was an enthusiastic meet ing Sunday afterno0n for young people with an attendance of about S00 and in the evening practically every bit of space was taken, as it was week ago, with a congregation of about 2.500.
 In the afternoon the chorus under Mir. Spooner's leadership conducted the opening song service. and duet, The Lord is My Shepherd, was well rem dered by Mrs. Reuben P. Potter, so- prano, and Mrs. w. G. Haselden, alto.
 Dr. Stough's sermon was from the text, For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he be- gan to seek after the God of David his father" and in which he used the life of Josiah to furnish the lessons for young people to become Christians. It was plentifully illustrated with help ful instances from life through which it was urged that an early decision for Christ might be made before evil hab- its are fastened upon the life, before one is entangled with alluring pleas ures which are not real pleasure, be- fore Goddess companions are made. and before the heart has been impaired and the conscience corrupted by sin.
 At the close s good number of re- sponses were received when the invi- tation was given.
