Rev. c. A. Northrop preached at the merging services of the First Congre gaticnaI church. taking for his text, Isa. 32. 2. And a man shall be as a hiding place from the wind and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. Isaiah says, Behold a King shall reign in righteousness. Righteousness is to be the foundation of the new kingdom. Such is the kingdom of Christ, such is the goal of Christianity for our hu- manity.
 Christianity is intended to be to men all that Christ was in the way of help. Christianity is the embodiment of Christ's life in men. The man in
 The text wants to live in every man belonging to His kingdom and through each man to prove His present help. Here and now the need is. Here and now it must be met and the Man of the text who meets 1t is the Divine Christ very present help in tune of trouble. As Christians here in this church, we are to put ourselves along side every traveller without that we may be able to shelter him from life's storms. For this we need a large, sympathetic heart. Recognition and comfort and cheer are in constant de- mand by somebody.
 Let each us us then try to be to others what Christ has been to us. Let us know our fellow church members and have a warm heart for their trials and stumblings and falls. Let us put some of our life into the weak and faint This watch and care is dele gated to us by Christ Himself.
 This world needs the daily work of a live Christianity, aye there's the rub, Christianity has grown weak in ire characteristics of the Master. The gospel is not preached adequately to the poor. For all the distress of the world a hiding place and a cover has been provided, the high rock and sparkling water exist. They are the host of Gods people as they live here, living Christianity. Now let that host move bodily into the midst of sin and suffering and if need be incur the charge of being a friend of publicaps and sinners. and then shall be seen on a large sCale9what now is seen in detached portions, the availability of Christianity for the worlds salvation.

Wondering What Improvements at Card Barn Leased by c. M. Shay Signify.

Improvements now being made at the old Card barn, leased by c. M Shay for a storage and shipping cen ire, are causing quite little uneasi- ness in the borough of Groton. Cement floors have been laid and an applica tion was recently made to the power plant to install electricity in the build ing. both for lighting purposes and power. It is wondered what the grinders are to be started for unless the plant is to be operated.
 Only recently at a meeting of the warden and burgesses, it was voted not to allow the conducting of any business objectiona ble to the residents of the borough and Mir. Shay was so notified. He states he does not mean his plant to be run in any objection able manner, and that he has ac- quainted the health officials with his purpose.

STONINGTON
Board of Registration Makes Thirty nine Voters-Dr. Clarence Ussher to Speak Tonight.

Stonington is sure to have at least one experienced legislator in the 1917 session but from present indications there will be two as it is probable the m .or and the captain, Bourbon A. Eabcock and Elias F. Wilcox, who rep resented the town in the session of 1915 will be reelected. Should the un- Expected happen and the democratic nominees be elected then the town would have the benefit of the experi- ence of Joseph w. Chesebro who has served several terms in the state leg ls1ature. This trio of candidates were op important committees and had the influence that carries with the inn portant committees on the legisla ture in general. Therefore Stonington is fortunate in it's nominees for the state legislature.
