In Honor Of Miss Dyer.

The Congregationalist of June 14th has
the following notice of Miss Frances J.
Dyer, former Belfast lady who is well
known and beloved by large circle of
friends here:
When woman has given herself un-
sparingly for many laborious years to her
friends, to the Christian Church and to
many altruistic enterprises, those who
have noticed and been benefited by her
unselfish efforts and her cheering pres
ence cannot be repressed when they per-
ceive proper occasion for a corporate
expression of their esteem and affection.
That was the reason why the Library of
the Congregational House one afternoon
last week was the scene of an informal
little gathering in honor of Miss Frances
j. Dyer, who was then passing an i'm
portant milestone in her life. Much
against her preferences she yielded to the
desire of women workers in the Congre-
gational House, with whom she has been
associated in one way or another for more
than thirty years, and permitted them to
have little celebration, confined chiefly
to the men and women workers connect
ed with Congregational activities in the
House. Standing beside DR.. William H.
Cobb of the Library, she greeted in turn
young and old, all of whom were only
too glad to avail themselves of the OPP
portunity to offer their personal congratu-
lations. 1t was delightful little gather
ing of sincere and admiring friends, whose
numbers would have been increased ten
fold had outsiders generally known of the
celebration. Miss Dyer's successive con-
nection with the Womans' Board, The
Congregationalist, Union Church, Boston,
her writings in various periodicals., her
work in the field of lectureship and her
innumerable private services for others
have made her woman of real distinc-
ton in the field of Christian service.

Respectfully submitted,
| j. Loyal Addison, Chairman.
Mr.. X. F. Fulton and Mr.. B. Anger
were respectively duly chosen as the
president and secretary of this asso-
| citation.
Mr.. John ID. Long was then duly
chosen as vice-president.
Mr.. John V. Nash was then duly
| chosen as treasurer.
The president announced that he
would appoint finance committee after
being afforded opportunity to consult
with the executive committee.
The president appointed Messrs. w.

Crane on the executive committee.
Another mass meeting of the citizens
OF the county and of the members of
local organizations as well as this organ
ization was ordered called for Saturday,
April 81, 1917, at P. NJ.
In the discussion of matters at this
meeting, stress was laid on the impor-
lance of directing the attention of
every citizen to the necessity of com
plying with the requests set forth by
the governor in his proclamation and by
the Government of the United States in
this emergency, that all needful steps
be taken, whether the necessity for
them was apparent to the individual or
not. Prof. Curtis of White Bird sug-
gested the ACCESSIBILITY of offering
prizes to school children, to encourage
such work as could be done by them, not
only to secure the objects desired by
the organization but also to arouse in
terest at the same time in an educa-
tional way. 1t was also suggested that
all proper steps be taken to insure the
planting of good seed as far as practi-
cable, and that this question should not
be sighted. 1t was desired that all
local organizations form as early as
possible, to have representatives at the
meeting of April 81. AS the time in
which to act lis limited, it was urged
that every possible step be taken to
plant all corps possible as well as per-
feet all organizations contemplated, and
that the present is the TIME TO ACT.
The secretary, with the aid of those af-
fording channels of communication, was
directed to give every publicity to our
proceedings to the end that the organi-
zation may fully and completely attain
the desired results.
The meeting then adjourned.
