PASTOR TAMbLYN ISN'T PLANNING
 HIS RESIGNATION
Some of Congregation Un- easy Because of Proposed
 Red Cross Work.

Fears that Rev. George O. Tam blyn may retire from the pastorate of the Olivet Congregational church, will be alleviated at tonight's meet lines of endeavors have been such congregational that with the temper ary call extended to MT. Tamblyn to organize for the American Red Cross association, he eventually will resign his pulpit. His activities both in the church work and along co-ordinated lines of endeavor have been much during the last few years that his loss would be greatly felt.
 Mr.. Tamblyn will assure his flock that the work will be temporary, that at, the expiration of three months he will return again to supervise the church work and that through his efforts the church here will greatly gain by the present widely-waged campaign.
 Though it is not expected that the church board of deacons will definitely decide upon the ques- tion at tonight's meeting. MT Tamblyn will begin his campaign for week, tomorrow, being scheduled to speak at Norwalk Armory. Thence he will go to Putnam to organize a chapter and will speak in the town of Washington on Sunday. Tuesday he will open the big campaign at Bing- hamton, \. Y.
 Should the decision of the deacons be adverse to his request he will ot course be obliged to return to this city from that point in the proposed tour that is planned to cover five states.
