A Missionary Institute. which Is in- terdenominational, and under the aus pices of the Young Peoples Mission ary Movement of the United States and Canada, is 10 be held In Danielson on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Nov. 2s, g and 30th.
 This organization is a federation of the home and foreign mission boards of America. It Is the same organiza- tion that holds the Silver Bay and the Lake Geneva conferences, and several of the speakers will be men and wom- en who teach and speak at the Silver Bay conference. In other words il is
 an attempt to bring the Advantages
 and the inspiration Of the Silver Bay conference directly to the churches Of
 all denominations in this part of the state. Similar institutes are being
 held in all parts of the state, and the
 reports which have come from New London, Willimantie, Hartford, Meri- l den and other centers where the meet
 ings have already been held are enthu-
 siastic as to the advantages of the in- stitute.
 The plan Is to meet at 4.sO each day
 and have a conference of missionary
 programs and education in the young peoples societies, and the Sunday school, and the church. From 5 to ! o'clock will be an internission for sup per. From to o'clock will be vari- ous mission study classes, and at s o'clock there will be public meeting with an inspiring address upon such topics as .The Church Confronted with the World Task" The Church in Training for the World Task,n and "The Church Engaged in the World Task
 1t ought to be understood that the institute is not only for young people, but for all who are interested in mis- sionary work, and that one great pur.
 pose of it is to show the possibilities, methods and material for missionary education and to prepare men and
  and to do mofe effective work along missionary lines.
 All the Protestant churches in the vicinity of Danielson are expected to send AS many as possible 10 enroll in the mission study classes and to re- ceive the benefit and the ins piration of the missionary addresses.
