PUTNAM PASTOR
 FOR PROVIDENCE.
Rev. G. C. s. MacKay Is Called To the Broadway Baptist
 Church Unanimously
Reserve. Decision Bu, Win Probably
 Accept

A unanimous call to the pastorship of the Broadway Baptist church, Providence, has been extended to the Rev. c. c. s. MacKay, pastor of the First Baptist church of this city. Mir. Mackay has not definitely decided to accept the call, but believes that af- ter proper conference with the mem- bers of his present charge it will be his decision to go to the Providence church, where the field for work is very large and the range of influence greater.
 The Broadway Baptist church is one of the largest of the denomina- ton in Providence and has very finely equipped Sunday school with a membership of almost 800. Mir. Mac Kay has preached in the church on one occasion, and members of the congregation have recently visited Putnam to meet Mir. MacKay and hear him preach.
 Mir. Maekay has been pastor of the Putnam Baptist church for the past two years. During his pastorate Mir. Mackay has taken an active part in the affairs of the city and under his leadership the congregation has grown in strength and enthusiasm and the Sunday school has become an in- creasingly strong organization.
 Throughout his pastorate here MT. MacKay has taken an active part in affairs of the Connecticut Baptist Convention and has spoken and preached in various parts of the state. He has also conducted many services in the outlying churches where there is no permanent pastor.
 Mir. MacKay Is a native of Scot land. He took his degree as Bachelor of Arts at the University of Edin- hurgh and his theology at the univer- sity of Glasgow. Should Mr. Mac Kay decide to leave Putnam he will go with the good wishes and pleasant remembranees of devoted congrega- ton and of many sincere friends.
 At Providence Mir. MacKay would be the successor to Dr. Cievenger, one of the best known divines in Rhode Island.
 It should be mentioned that Mr. MacKay has been one of the strong est supporters of the Boy Scouts movement in Putnam ever since his coming here. He has worked actively with the. boys, and for two summers has conducted camp for them with great success and most satisfactory results.

NEARLY 44, 1000 FOR HOSPITAL

There is no denying the fact
 that the number of contributions
 to The Patriots Fund for the Day
 Kimball Hospital has been less dur
 ng the past week than at any time
 since the fund was started. But are we down hearted? Most de-
 cidedly. Nol The fund has con-
 tinued healthily throughout the
 autumn, when business conditions
 throughout this section of the state
 have become more and more de- pressing. Yet, despite economic
 stringency, the people of the coun-
 ty have given generously and lib
 orally, realizing that the needs of
 the hospital are their needs, too. We still believe that there are many who will give their Dollar or
 More" as thank offering at
 Thanksgiving, than which there can
 be. no better.
