In the essay contest for the gram mar schools of Connecticut, under the auspices of the Connecticut Society of the Colonial Danes, the first prize of S10 was won. as already announced, iby Miss Winifred GrierSon of the ninth grade at Broadway school. Miss Grierson, who is the daughter of MT. and Mrs. James Grierson of No. 164 Broad street, wrote upon the subject, The Church as the Center of the Town Life of the Colonies. Her prize win ming essay, which was one of 214 Sub- mitted in the whole contest for gram mar and high schools was as follows
 Any story of coloniel days would be very incomplete which did not give prominence to the religious life of the colonists. They came to this new and strange land and endured many kardships and dangers in or der that they might have freedom to worship God' and to do His will.
 Therefore religion was always prom inent in their thoughts and conduct, and naturally had an influence in shaping their town life In fact in achusetts bay and the New Haven colonies the church and town were one and the church ruled over the town.
 In q rude building of logs, some times nothing but a barn the people
 
 vices at the sound of a drum or horn for it was a great many years before bells were used. In a few years the people began to build churches with the square tunnel roof and still later they began to build churches with steepIes.
 In the earliest times Indians lurked near the village and when the people were at church was a very dangerous time. Often the minister and men of the congregation were armed and sen tinels were stationed outside to watch for the enemy The church was us- ually built upon an elevation so that it would be easier to see the Indians coming.
 There was no way provided for ,:eating the churches The doors were opened to let in the sun. The minister cften preached in overcoat and nit tens. The women carried heated stones in their muffs and later little hand stoves The men drew bags over their feet to keep warm.
 The exercises were very long, last ing for many hours. The seating of the congregation was an important part. The men were seated on one side and the women on the other, while in the back seats sat the chil- dren. Behind all stood the tithing man with a long stick in his hand, one end of which was tipped with brass which he used for slumbering or dis orderly men or boys. On the other end was a hare's foot. which he used for the women of the congregation who might be caught mapping.
 Religion filled a large space in the thoughts and in the laws of the peo- pie. Because the evening and the morning were the first day they com nfenced their observance of the Sab hath on Saturday at sunset.
 On Sunday morning everyone went to church People who live far away came prepared to spend the day. The elders and children rode on horseback and the young people walked. Those who spent the day there passed the

intermission between the services in what were called Sabbath day houses" These houses were small structures made of logs with a single room in which were fireplace, benches. few chairs and a table. Here the family and their friends gathered to eat their lunch and to warm their chilled hands and feet.
 The minister was the leader of the most learned and respected class in a community His authority was al most supreme To sit patiently on the minister turned the hour glass for the third time was considered a priv ilege On the Sunday after election. he preached an election sermon and set forth the equality of men and the beauties of pure democracy and defended his politics by passages from Scripture and quotations from ancient Greek writers.
 The inhabitants of the town and the members of the congregation were the same persons. When they met for church business such as choosing a new minister. or admitting new mem bers it was parish meeting and when they met for civil business such as appropriating money for making a road or building a schoolhouse, it was a town meeting. In either case it was meeting of free people who gov 
 When the settlers came from Eng land to Massachusetts. they came in congregations usually led by their ministers, thus forming parishes or townships. In this way Massachu- setts became filled with small. self : governing republics or townships about eight or ten miles square.
 The church was used not only for religious purposes, but for transact ing public business also. It was used for elections and all town meetings and discussions. before the town hall was built
 To the Connecticut settlers religion was an essential part of daily life and politics. Town and church were but two sides of the same thing. A religious dispute usually gave rise to a new town. One of the first laws of Connecticut was that all the people should be taxed for the church as well as the state and that the taxes for the. church were to be levied and collected like other taxes.
 In New England the life of the family, church and town began to- gether. For many years the church was practically the town also, the elders of the one being the selectmen of the other.
 From the earliest days the meeting house was the place to hear, and the minister was the person to announce all political news of importance. For example, most of the people heard the results of the war of the Revolution at the meeting house. The country parson was in all things expected to be the leader of his people. They looked to him for example in things political, social and educational as well as in things theological.
 Thus we see that the church was the pivot around which the town life revolved and we see also how this ac- counts for the sturdy character of the descendants of these colonists when they had to fight for their civil fiber ties as their forefathers had struggled for their religious liberties.

TAKING LESSONS FROM
 NORWICH LIGHTING PLANT.
Municipal Ownership Seems to Be
 Success.

In these days when powerful com pines are trying to secure a foothold in Connecticut-not to say monopoly to furnish light and power in Con- necticut cities. it is interesting to note what success is being accomplished by the plan of municipal lighting. Con- spicuous among the cities that have for a number of years given a practi- cal test to municipal lighting is Nor Wich which, since 1t took possession of the gas and electric plants, has prac- tically rebuilt them, at tremendous cost, and is now able to make this very encouraging report from its mu- nicipal lighting department:
 The profit from Aug. 1. 1912. to May 1, 1913, as shown by the books of this department, was $43,557S2 The de- preciation, paid to city treasurer. for $60,S4723. Deducting from this amount nine months interest on city bonds and notes paid by city treasurer, amounting to $9.116.25. leaves the net earnings to the city for nine months $51730.98, and the total net profit from July ]. 1904. to May 1. 1913, $271, ,5844S.
 In addition to the above net profit the consumers of gas and electricity have been benefited by reduced rates, as follows: Gas from S1.75 to $1.25 per 1000 cubic feet and Chad the court of common council granted the re- quest of the former commissioners presented them the first of ApriD would now be getting gas for s1; elec- tricity, from 1T 1-2 cents to eight cents per K w. H. The city has been bene- fited by reduced cost of street lighting viz: Arc lights from $90 to $60 per year and incandescent lights from $20 to $11 per year; city public buildings from 10 cents to 34 cents per K. w H.
 Judging from the rates obtained, the service furnished and the large net balance on the right side of the ledger, Norwich will not hurry to re turn to the old order of things.-An- sonia Sentinel.
