Three of the large Baptist churches of the state, two of them in Hartford have together raised $20o,ooo The First church of Hartford leads the Congrega. tional churches in the state with pledges of s12,500 on a quota of $14,000.

 member of the court of common coun- cil and to his high integrity and the es- | teem in which he was held as Chris 1 tian gentleman.
 Rev. Alexander H. Abbott recalled tc 1 his hearers the words of former text l The Unseen Congregation and said, "A | part of the priceless heritage of a Chris ] tian institution is the influence or those
 whose service is not now on earth bu l in the invisible kingdom of our Heaven | ly Father, and we are rich in the United Congregational church in such inheri | tances It is very fitting for us today t 1 awaken in, our memories the fine influ enee of Mir. Haviland."
 l The flowers used for decorations in tn 1 church and the church school wer roses, carnations, marguerites and snap
 dragons and were the gift of Mrs. Josepl D. Haviland.

MARSHALL SPEAKS AT
 INTERCHURcH MEETING


 Washington. May 2.-Vice President Marshall. speaking today with Sir Auck- land Geddes, the British ambassador, at an interchurch world movement mass meeting, declared the church must prove its work by it's faith and that it lis idle to legislate for purity of the priest, above cis LOOK, is to leer at his neighbor's Nife'
 Ut is vain to enact laws .punishing murder the vice president added, If the elders are to continue working little children to death. It is useless to forbid larceny if the deacons make large church contributions cut of excess profits w-une jointly from tabor and the ultimate con suIner."
 si" Auckland expressed belief that the church bad not kept pace with the in. dustriai revolution of the last century and tha- religion on which civilization is based had been forgotten in the great cities
 Vice President Marshall told the audi ence that the church, with a, complaisan smile had turned over to the state tn, enforcement of the moral law, and tha the state had failed, while the man or tho street sneeIed.
 When the church takes back the dis cipllnins of the moral and religious lift I of its members. when it trains up it children with fixed views, when it prove ! it's faith in the communion of the saint tby it's works, its courts will be thronge Ewith wotshippe1s, and there will be n need for patchwork legislation to recon c!le latcr and capital, nation and nation.

h a grand closing rally at a special meeting held after the church service, the members of the Central Baptist church went over the top Sunday night on their quota of sso.ooo in the demonin- aticnal drive for $1oo. 100000. When the final returins were counted up the sum pledged was ss0.010.47, of which $S,- S10.47 was pledged Sunday night after over si2. 900 had been reported in pledg- cs secured during the day.

Brown addressed the workers and ask cd for suggestions as to what should be done about continuing the campaign tin the whole amount was reached or bringing 1t to a finish Sunday night.
