THE D A. R. CONTEST.
Connecticut Delegates to Favor Mrs. William C. Story for President Gen. sraI.

As the time draws near for the con Cmental congress of the Daugh- tors of the American Revolution which will hold it's twentieth session in Washington on April r, interest deepens and speculation is rife con- corning the outcome of the election, says the Waterbury American, for the office of president general. Contrary 10 many reports, the continental con- EressJ is not a continual scene of blick- ering and petty quarreling, but as in masculine gatherings of the sort, par " spirit sometimes runs high and diff ferences of opinion are expressed in somewhat excited terms. It is as- serted, however, that in tic mann this is q gathering of representative women from all oyer the country who con- duct business in a dignified and par judged. as a whole, by occasional un- pleasant incidents any more than any other assernblage.

There are, undoubtedly, many young men and young women of moderate incomes. who have the desire to make some provision for unusual emergen- cies. and for the known requirements of the future, by setting aside some part of their earnings. but who are prevented from doing so by the 1eenns that their savings are too 1nslgnln- cant to take to d bank, so they attempt to do that which is nearly impossible for most people, namely, to keep the money within easy reach and stlii save avstenatically The Thames Loan & Trust Co. is endeavoring to remove this feeling of embarrassment by in viting (under specific conditions that reduces to minimum the laoor or caring for them) deposits of such an amount each week, as to encourage every one to make beginning The plan is so novel and interesting that members rarely drop out and usually acquire a habit that is of almost in ostimable value

CONGREGATIONAL SINGING. Plans of Choral Union to Make 1t
 More Popular.

A preliminary meeting of the, com- raittee of the presidents of the various branches of the Litchfield County Choral union was held at Carl StockeTs in Norfolk last (Monday) evening to take the initiatory steps in the plan suggested at the last annual meeting of the union toward the de- velopment of congregational hymn singing in the churches of the county
 After an informal dinner Mir Stoeckel explained his plans for the proposed work, and a selection was made from various hymnals in use in the churches of nearly a hundred hymns and tunes from which, with subsequent additions, selections will be made by the different unions for experimental use in the various churches willing to cooperate in the work.
 A meeting of the larger committee will be held some time in May at MT. Stoechers to make the first definite selection of the first group of 25 hymns to- be recommended to the
Norwich bulletin., 1911-03-24

churches for praise service use, to be followed later on by additional groups of hymns until ultimately hundred or more hymns and tunes shall be bound together for supplemental use in the churches and at general union praise service in the cooperating towns and at some later date in a great general hymn service in the Music shed. Norfolk. It is believed that this movement is unique in the annals of American church music and may pave the way for a populariZation of congregational singing ill American churches that will equal or possibly surpass effects in this direction se- cured in English and German churches abroad.-Winsted Citizen STATE

 The pictures that paint are crude Tire colors poor, the drawing rude And yet when winter days begin They let a bit Of summer in.

 The simple things that bring cheer. To dispel days that hearts must fear Each day a picture new I make
