 The exercises will take up the en. tire day, the regular morning serv. ice at 10:45 o'clock being converted into memorial service. Rev. Will liam B. Futile, D. D., of Lowell Mass, delivering the address. Spe. cial musical numbers will be deliv. cred and the entire service will be in charge of Rev. Mir. Phillips.
 The second half of the observance will be held at 3:45 o'clock in the afternoon, when the anniversary program will be carried out. The principal historical address will be given by E.
