 During the three remaining Sun days in September our many friends and neighbors who have attended their home church in the morning and are taking an afternoon motor ride are cordially invited to make the o'clock church service an objective point and make the acquaintance of Rev. MT. Allen. On October first, as usual, the time of the services change, the resonant bell calling the Hill con- gregation for Bible school at 10 and preaching service at II o'clock. On Memorial day Judge Fisk of Rockville, formerly of Stafford, asked hnI n fnF1 ol church was the one formerly in the church at Stafford Street? On Sun day Deacon Bracket, who was at the service at Baptist church, spoke of the resOnancy of the bell and said the one now at the disused Congregational church was of sweeter tone. When it was cast for the Stafford Street church, 100 silver dollars were added to the seething bell-metal that went into it's formation.
 It is repeatedly announced in many ways in many papers that Labor day closes the season. Here we feel that the season opened on the first of September with the arrival of the new pastor, his family and household effects. The new corners were enter tained at Mrs. Pratts over Sunday, coming to the parsonage on Monday, where they are getting settled at their own convenience and pleasure. The parsonage having been thoroughly renovated, painted without and within and the walls of the rooms newly pa pered and several improvements made, the removal of the large barn and ad- jacent sheds being among the most noticeable.
 On Sunday afternoon there was a large congregation to listen to the suggestive and inspiring sermon from t Revelations, 3-8, last clause. A dis \ course to hold in memory sympathic and cordial in spirit setting forth the truth that the strength of the church did not depend so much upon it's large E membership as it did upon coopera- tiOn and upon prayer He announced | that welcome awaited every one at I the parsonage as he trusted a well come awaited him and his family in ! the hOmesa and hearts of the people. With the fine singing, Miss Coleman at the organ, the Scouts in the choir and Pastor Allen as a leader, it was a C4uAy SSEN4CS. Ou u0Ab 0uu- day afternoon there will be solo by \ MT. Allen.
