THE REV. GRACE E. M. STOKES.
Times have certainly changed in
old New England. Now it is the
women who lay down the law, and
from the pulpit, too. The Reverend
Grace E. Mayer Stokes is the popular
pastor of the First Congregational
Church of Old Hadley, Mass. Her
church pews are never empty or
scantily filled. She is one of the best
speakers in the churches of the dis
trict and bids fair to convert many
outside the fold by her energetic,
forceful, and strong interpretations
of the Holy Writ.
