Rev. Howard H. Brown was born
in Camden, N. j.. and has passed most
of his life in that state his parents
also being natives Of New Jersey. He
attended the public schools of his home
city but was compelled to enter bust
ness at an early age and then contin-
ued his studies at the night schools
and also at Temple College an insti-
tuition established by Russell Conwell
for the education Of those employed
in the daytime. Feeling a call to the
ministry, he entered South Jersey In
stitute and graduated in 1895. He
then vent to Brown University and
devoted himself to thorough prepara
ton for the work to which he was
called. He graduated in 1899 and en-
tered Grocer Theological Seminary in
the fall. Here he took the full three
year course.
While student Mr.. Brown devoted
great deal Of time to active Chris
tian work and supplied many churches
in Rhode Island and New Jersey. His
first regular pastorate was at Orange

than seven years. during Which time
his church enjoyed unusual prosper
ity. a $4,000 parsonage was built, the
church edifice improved at an expend-
iture of $4,000, many new members
were added and increasing congrega-
lions taxed the church to it's capacity.
In Pennington, his only other pas
torate, where he has served for nearly
| 10 years, his efforts have also been
attended with great success, A. fine
| parsonage has been secured and. eX-
| tensive improvements made ins the
church edifice. which has a seating
capacity of 1000. More members have
been added to the church (nearly 5000
attendance secured at the Sunday
school than in any similar period of
time during all the church's history
| Of over 100 years. Under Mr.. Browns
guidance it has become one OF the
leading Baptist churches in southern
New Jersey.
| One June %, 1902. he married Miss
Hilda Recap Of Bridgton, N. ]. There
are two children-Howard Jr., now in
his third year at Phillips Exeter
Academy, and Helen NJ, now a little
past !2 years of age.
Mr.. Brown has always taken great
| interest in public work. both religious
and secular. He has held important
offices in all of the New Jersey Bap-
\ fist state and county church and Sun
day school organizations and for three
years was member of the national
Baptist apportionment committee. He
is Mason and an Odd Fellow. serv-
ing several terms as chaplain in each.
For over three years he has acted as
treasurer Of the Pennington Branch
American Red Cross. and took an ac-
tive part in all the drives during the
war.

livery in the pulpit, breaches without
notes and has cordial and pleasing
personality. The members of the new
