Night.
NEW PLANS ADOPTED
ow. Williams Moro Than Pleased
with the Outcome Of His APP
peal From the Pulpit
Last Sunday.


IN response to suggestion and a
n,ea from the pastor, Rev. George G.
williams. Of the First Congregational
church. made at the services last
sunday that ne desired large at
tendance at the mid-week prayer
Meeting, there was very large at
tendance at that meeting last night.
Rev. Williams is a very active, orig
inal and progressive church worker
and very generally succeeds in his
MANS and undertakings. While they
are progressive, they are practical
and uplifting. And this Is why his
congregation follows him as good
shepherd. He always leads through
carefully planned and practically and
morally sensible ways. He cndeavors
to lead through no blind pathways
guessing there will be light along the
way and a halo at the end.
Mr.. Williams has always suggested
new methods and plans at the begin
ming of the winter. This time he sug-
gested what he called radical
changes" and the carrying out Of
these Fans and various discussions
promise to become very interesting in
the matter of stirring up the citizen
shin of the city in civic duties as well
as their moral and religious action.
In his remarks on these radical
changes from the old routine meet
ing, he said, it was called prayer
meeting, but 1t didn't pray any more
He suggested that perhaps it was time
to work as well as pray; or 1t might
be properly reversed. to pray as well
as work, and to take. a little interest
in the practical life around us. Meet
ings OF various kinds were arranged
for during the winter, and placed in
charge OF committees who pledged
themselves to bring something of a
practical nature. Monthly socials at
which the work of the church could
be discussed and the welfare of the
whole life in the city considered were
to be held in change with addresses
and prayer meetings.
There was great deal of enthu-
siasm manifested, and the church
started out on its winters work with
buoyant hope and confidence Mr..
Williams expressed himself as more
than pleased with the outcome of his
appeal from the pulpit last Sunday.
