The Girls service at the Congrega
tional church last Sunday proved to be
an impressive occasion. The meeting
was conducted by Miss Levena Hagar,
who led in the responsive reading and
so forth. Miss Regena Hagar spoke
briefly but most effectively on every
Girl at Her Best All the Time" .Lor-
enc Schoenfeld and Emma Hutson sang
Miles beautiful song, I'm the Garden. I"
The Bluebird choir, the younger girls,
led in the congregational singing and
sang an anthem. Four girls ushered.,
The pastor spoke briefly from the Book
of Ruth. The entire service was a
wonderful recognition of the mutual
responsibilities of the church and it's
young people.
The meeting last Friday evening of
the Congregational Mems club, enter
tanned at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. j.
w. Conn, was featured by an i'm
promptu address of the Rev. Mr.. At
kins. He choose for his subject the re-
lation of the ministry to the pastor, to
the flock, and to the public. The dis
cussion of this topic by Mr.. Atkins was
refreshingly candid, and in the hands
of a less tactful man it might have
caused comment, but he skillfully avoid
ed running his ship either on Scylla or
Charybdis, and sailed his ship, loaded
to the gunwales with worth while
things, into safe harbor. Successful
church work, like any other work that
counts because it touches intimately
the things that are fundamental in our
natures, gains by open frankness be-
tween the leader and those who follow.
And by taking the men of his church
club into his confidence, Rev. Atkins
placed himself in position where he
can be of the greatest service to his
fellows. Brief responses were made
by Holt, Gle, Norman, Wilson and
others. At this meeting officers were
elected for the ensuing year. All the
officers of last year were reelected.
F. Holt was made toastmaster. Mrs.
Thwaits, accompanied by Mrs. j. A.
Jensen, and Mr.. Jarlsberg, accompan-
led by Rev. Atkins, entertained the
club with several songs. Apples and
cigars were passed around after the
program. The club is to be entertain
ed by DIR. Meyers in February.
