Y. M. c. A. MEETING.
Gales Ferry Pastor Talks on A Young
 Mans Religion.

Rev. Allen S. Bush Of Gales Ferry interested the men at the Y. M C. A. rally Sunday at 4 D. m. His topic was A Young Mans Religion, and among other things he said:
 I remember hearing an old man tell of his misspent life and while he had late in life turned to Christ, yet he said he had lost much in living in sin so long. You young men have most Of life before you, and there is sometE G in religion that should appeal to yEu and as you study the life of Jesus you must be deeply impressed by the eIe- n1ents of bravery and strength and efficiency of thatiifeS and so these same clements are found in the life of every true young man. Indeed, they are nat lsral to him, and the best way to retain fnd develop these fatalities is to heed the admenition of the scripture pas- sage: Let the word of Christ dwell in yoH."
 The bravery of Christ reached its climax when he ht:ng upon the cross. The strength of his character was shown in many ways and his whole life was splendidly efficient and yours will be as you follow him.

 One startling message brought out the fact that tho recipient had been corresponding with a mind reader who has recently been in Norwich, and Mrs. Vanderbilt advised the young women to cease spending her money ir consulting so-ca1led fortune tellers as the letter she had received was a. bait to lead her on. The name of the mind reader, and Of the cornmunicat- ing spirit were given and it was all acknowledged to be correct.
 The evening brought out an au- 1ienee that tested the full seating ca l'acity of the academy. The attrac- t.veness of the musical part of the service was greatly enhanced by the solo work of Hugh Kinder who was in excellent voice and rendered the vocal numbers very effectively.
 Mrs. Vanderbilt gave A half hour discourse and followed with psychic readings that at times aroused deem interest and appreciation and in each case were declared absolutely correct. Names and relationship os departed loved ones, descriptions Of their ap- pearance while in the body, and mat ters Of personal interest were freef-- given by the psychic and readily rec cgnized by the ones to whom mes- Sa geS were given
