Henry James Style.

Stevenson spotted the uncOnscion-
able repetition of certain adjectives in
Frederick Hudson but probably the
most marked characteristic of Henry
James style was his passion for ad-
verbs and adverbial clauses. He was
the most adverbial of English writers.
You will find more adverbs to the page
than even in Meredith. And he had a
quaint habit of putting the adverb
before the verb when most writer's
would put it after. One of his ladies
dhe examples are taken at random)

tifully and tenderly smiled" And
after ALL crops up all over the place.
But one would not have these things
altered; they were part of the man.
One does object to them, however, in
his imitatOrs. who have learned the
trick, but missed the spirit behind it

FAIRFIELD

Rev. Felix Powell of Portland will
come to Fairfield Sunday. Feb. 6. to take
up the duties of conducting a series of
evangeistic services. Rev. Mr. Powell
was not always minister, neither did
he have the idea of being one. He came
to the United States and was first en-
ploSed as a ditch digger being of Italian
parentage. The ditch digger became a
converted Protestant. Then his relatives,
who were all of the Catholic religion, be-
came very much angered at this. Their
anger reached such a pitch that Mr..
Powell's life was in danger. He was
fired at twice by a revolver in the
hands of an Infatuated relative. He was
then forced to leave his present abiding
place, which was at Brunswick, and went
to a neghboring town. There he took up
the trade of painter and paperhanger.
AS soon as he was financially fit Mr..
Powell entered kent's Hill Seminary He
started from the bottom rung of the lad
der of learning, by first learning the
ABCs. His Quickness to learn was
brought to the front by the fact that he
was able to graduate from that institu-
ton five years after entering. He later
attended theological school. He has
filled three appointments in the Maine
Methodist conference.
A group of prayers will be held at the
homes of Methodist Pensioners this week
in anticipation of the evangelistic SER
vices which will be started at the church
