CONGREGATIONAL CONFERENCE
 HEARD FROM INDIA
Rev. w. N. Zumbro of Madurn College
 Spoke to the Six Churches.

The conference of the six churches of Jewett City. Lisbon, Griswold, Pres ton City, Plainfeld and Hanover was held on Wednesday. Oct. 13, with the Preston City Congregational church. The rare fall day. the beautifully dec orated church, the good spirit of fel- lowship, made a combination seldom surpassed. Rev. Luther Kenerson of the Preston City church presided. The morning service opened with the dOx- ology and invocation followed by the responsive reading of the 103rd psalm. The scripture Was read by Rev. N. B. Pripdle, pastor of the Shelton Baptist church. The choir rendered the an- them Oh Our God. Rev. A. L. Tedford, the pastor of the Preston City Bap- tist church. offered prayer. The hymn O Love That Win Not Let Me Go was sung.
 Sermon of the Day.
 The sermon was preached by the Rev. Samuel Thatcher of Jewett City Methodist church. His subject was, A Candlestick- He said: When Moses led the children of Israel out of Egypt they were the raw material out of ton Most-of them were slaves with out culture. We have to acknewl- edge that God succeeded in his efforts for how puny is the place in the worlds history of the Anglo Saxon race compared with the Hebrew race
 They are today an influential people We owe a lot to them. It would be in- teresting to inquire the method God followed in the development of this people Gods. method was different from what ours would have been. We would have trained them in education He taught them first how to worship How we have wandered from this. We put the emphasis on the material. God put 1t on the spiritual. We think the church Is not as powerful as the school, but we are wrong. Magnify the church. Our forefatheTs built the church and the school on the same common with the church little ahead The boy and the girl need to have 6 grip on the spiritual.
 How did God train these people7 Hs gave Moses forty days normal train | ing on the mount. Moses then con. worship. It was a lavish expenditure
 for such a people, It cost perhap: | 8, 100000. The candIestick of purt
 gold in the holy place cost perhap. $34,O00. Gods house ought to b'
 beautiful and costly Plainness il
 often sign not Of piety but penuri ousness. Why Is Gods house so plaiT | and ours so eostlY7
 l Someone might have said, what fl the sense but now we see how wis God was educating them in this wa.
 to touch all time. Let us be, -carefu that we don't cripple any human soul Ills plan is education and developmen | rom within outward and not iron the outside to the inside.
 What did the csndlesticix sISnify It was pure gold. which stands fo
 divinity. The church is divinely or gHriged institution. Other institution
 are good. but not divine. It is tn, grandest institution that this worli has ever seen or can see. The great ! est honor that can come to a human
 soul is to identify itself with tn
 church of Jesus. It is composed O people who parake of diviniy.
 The candlesttck was beaten gold ! Why did they not mould 1t? It wouli
 have been less work and expense.
