tor, presiding. There was large attend !
ance Mr. Hawthorne read President |
Thanksgiving proclamation and
offered the prayer. Rev. Arthur E. Will |
son of the Unitarian church read the |
Scriptures. The music was all appropri- |
ate to the occasion, consisting of series |
of Thanksgiving hymns by the chorus
choir led by Elbridge s. Pitcher with Miss
Amy E.Stoddard organist. Miss otoddard

choir sang the anthem, "Praise the Lord,
by Barnby. A collection was taken for
the Girls Home. The sermon of the
evening was by Rev. Charles w. Martin
of the Methodist Church and was received
with most favorable comment. 1t was
appropriate, helpful and entertaining.
He took for his text, Gin Everything Give
Thanks" list Thess. 5:18. The speaker
developed the peculiar situation when in
the midst of war and in it's horrors we
can give genuine thanks. He relegated
prosperity of worldly goods, riches, ETC.,
to the background, and brought forward
the larger opportunities given all to serve
in great cause. All true Americans
are putting away all selfishness and are
serving in some capacity, by saving food,
giving to the Red Cross and Y. M. C. A.
and subscribing for the Liberty Loans.
The church will rise stronger for doing
it's part in the struggle for true democ-
racy and the time will come when to be
known as an American citizen will be the
highest title known throughout the world.
