Rev. J. F. Cobb and choir of the Church of the Good Shepherd were at the Sheltering Arms Sunday afternoon, bringing cheer to the household and others present by helpful service of song, prayer and address. MT. Cobb took for his text Psalm 121, and ?, l will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord which made heaven and earth. The speaker said; Mans strength is not in him. self, there is a Being beyond himself that he must lay hold of if he would make the most of his possibilities Mans help comes from sources that are unseen, mysterious and eternal The guiding power is above us, our high standards are found by looking up. Christianity places the ideal be- fore our vision, in Christ we find a sAurce of help. Look unto Me, HE says, am the way, the truth and the life. He must be obeyed and followed. The real and lasting life is found in God. Flowers and trees seek the sun and it is just as natural for us to look to God for our help and light Whence cometh my help? My help cometh from the Lord which made heaven and earth and may it make our life fuller of Thee
 Miss Carrie D. Champlin accompa- nied for the anthems and hymns which as always were a great addition to the service. Miss Mary E. Rogers and Mrs Cora Beebe of the choir assisting.

 OF ALLEN B. LlNcOL
Native of WiIIinantic Tells in Big New York Missionary Publication of Knights of King Arthur.

Allen E. Lincoln of 902 Chapel street, New Haven, 9. frequent Norwich wis itor, native of Willimantic and sum mer resident of Ashford, has been re- quested by Rev. William S. Beard, as- sociate secretary of the Home Mis- sionary society at New York, to de- scribe his work among Italian boys in New Haven. This Mr Lincoln does with characteristic ability in the May issue of The American Missionary, published at 2S9 Fourth avenue, New York. The seven page article is enti- tied A Business Man, the Knights of King Arthur and the Italian Problem, and is illustrated
 Mir Lincoln narrates the inaugura- ton of the-cEub, in March, 1910, and it's simple ritual and pledge. It's aim was good citizenship and good fellowship. recreation through athletics and sini- lar means. Three similar clubs were organized by the merlin in the same Italian quarter within 3 year after Castle Garibaldi was started, as branches of the K. O. K. A, one known as Umberto castle. another as the Junior K. O. K. A., and another as the Pages. of Arthur. More than a hun dred Italian lads were enlisted in these four castles at different times, and on several occasions they were brought together at games and entertainments. They were addressed by prominent men, including eX-PreSident ". H. Taft
 The honesty of Mir. Lincoln's aims is indicated by one of his talks to the boys which he relates as follows: You fellows have never heard me at these meetings, have yoz? (They | said no.) We have. made the K O. K. A ritual the basis of our religious l teaching, simply to promote clean 1 character. and We have talked about i the meaning of American citizenship. 1 (They assentedD I know that you fellows are Catholics. and you ought
 to be. Your fathers and mothers are Catholics, and you would make a mis- 1 take to try to be anything else. You go to St. Michaek' to mass, and that's
 where you beionA But l want you to 1 be good Catholics and good American Catholics, like Archbishops Gibbons
 and Ireland I want You to grow up l to know what is going on in America
 and how to be good American citi-
 zens" With this full understanding, the K O. K. A. work went on, and the mem bership of the castle gradually in
 creased to 25 or more. h. line with the character teaching above outlined
