UNITY MINISTER ORDAINED
Yale Divinity School Student May
Choose Amy Denomination.

An unusual ordination to the minis
try took place last Thursday, when
two preachers ordained the Rev. An
drew Iss1tch, student at the Yale d.
vinity school. The young man was or
dained for no special religious body
and is thus equipped to be a minister
in any denomination he may choose.
It fs said that 1T is the first ordination
to the ministry on what may be called
general lines since the agitation Of
church unity was started.
It has always been held in ordaining
a candidate for the ministry that he
must be ordained by one of the same
communion; a Roman Catholic by a
Catholic bishop; a, Presbyterian by a
bishop of that faith. and so on. The
Rev. Dr. Leitch was ordained by a
Congregationalist and a Disciple of
Christ, the Rev DR.. Charles B. Brown
and the Rev. DR.. Peter Ainslie per-
forming the ceremony
Tt has been agreed in Austr ALA that
beginning with the year 1920 all per-
sons ordained for the ministry shall
be ordained In all ways, so that the
minister can find a place in any religf-
Gus body which offers a vacancy. So
far as known the Rev. Mr.. Leitch Ks
the only minister so ordained in the
United States.

Night
subcommittee of Ladies of

DartmentS

Some idea of the extent of the prep
ara tons for the Colonavilla, the four
nights charity entertainment at the
| arnIory, Jan q to 81, under the aus
pices of the Ladies of Charity, may
| be gathered from the fact that this
orga nization an auxiliary to the Sis
| tiers of Charity of ST. Vtncent's hos
pital, numbers nearly 1000 members.
| OF this membership, a goodly num-
| Der are actively interested to the ex-
tent of having undertaken to sell tick
cts, or assist in the mana cement and
presentation Of the various features
of enterta inment which will mark
each evening with a, distinctive pro-
gram.
One of the most striking entertain
ment numbers thus far announced is
that of the combined German singing
| societies. The German singers will
be ON hand the opening night to rem
der a vocal concert the like of which
has rarely been Offered in this city.
The various German societies have
evinced a spirit of cordial corpora
ton towards the amusement commit
tee of the Ladies of Charity and have
| assured them that there will be prac-
tically a full membership of all the
societies in the armory on the open
ing night TO take part in the con-
cert.
| the Colonav1lla, the general commit
tee in charge has been sub divided,
and there is a committee of three at
tached to each of the various booths.
Their assistants are selected by the
n1atrons, and these are in some in
stances several dozen to a booth.
The Co1onavf11a profits will be used
to furnish the new maternity and
children's ward of st. Vincent's hos
pital. From the enthusiasm so far
lonavilla will at least equal in success
the Cosm ov4l1a, which netted more
than $4,000 for the hospital. Yester
