The musical cantata entitled Ruth
rendered in the Lutheran Church last
night by the Choir proved to be one Of
the best of its KIND rendered in the Is
land. The voices are we'll trained, the
members did justice to their paris especial
lH the prominent and distinguished char
acters, Mrs. r. Stevens, Mrs. A. Peter
sen, Mrs. E. Fensmark and the old tim
or Mr.. Jno. De la Meta. The organist
Miss |. Stevens with her wonderful
touch and the young ladies' with their
angelic voices only gave Us an idea o.
what Heaven is like and what the IS
land could produce if they were given
The chance. The attendance was very
large and no doubt for the occasion
d served a large congregation. From the
various passages OF the music 1t is plain
u be seen that only hard work made it
a success.
The Lutheran Church is one Of the
most active for keeping its congregation
together, especially the young members.
One Of the chief activities worth men
tioning is the Luther League VIII ch is
not only a social society but also teaches
the young people the right way Of con
Quoting religious meetings 50 that they
nigh get accustomed to the art Of puD-
lie speaking. There is always something
being done by this church for rousiDg

HEAR PERSHING SAY
 HIS LAST FAREWELL
Radio Fans Tune in on Good
 Bye by Army Head

Those radio enthusiasts fortunate enough to be listening in last night, heard one of the greatest achieve ments of the radio world, when General John J. PerShing at Wash ington, D, C.. said farewell to the chiefs of the various corps areas from New York to San Francisco.
 The farewell speech wRs broad cast through 1T stations linked to- gether and came through with clear ness from any one of them. The generals conversations with the generals in charge of the corps areas were easily understood, as were the words of his subordinates in the cities all over the country. He talked with generals stationed in New York, Chicago. Denver and San Francisco and every word was clear.
 The men talked as New Britain people might talk to one another on the street, telling of the old army days and at intervals laughing heartily at some reminiscense.
 When the general finished his talk to one general he was immediately connected with another. An an- nouncer at the end of the program told of what had been taking place and also told what an achievement in the world of radio it was.

HELD FOR HIGHER COURT
New Britain Men Bound Over As Result of story Told To Court By Hartford Women.

Harry Keough, 9f, of 100 North street, and Frank J, Schmidt, 25, of 6S4 East Main street. were bound over to the superior court when they were arraigned in the Meriden police court this morning on charges grow ing out of an automobile ride they gave two Hartford young women Thursday afternoon.
 Keough is held under s1,00O bonds on a charge of assault with intent 10 rape, and schmidt is held under $500 on a simple assault charge. The two men entered pleas of not guilty, hut after listening to the story told by the women in the ease, the de- tendants were bound over.
 The accused men denied the ale cations of the women. They told the court they met Mrs. Frank Bruno of 22l Main street, Hartford, and Mrs. Bessie Webster of 19 Pleas ant street, Hartford, In this city Thursday afternoon, and the party agreed to so to Meriden for lunch. The women were agreeable to the plan, but when they arrived at a point just north of Meriden, the de- fendants claim that they changed their minds, and seeing Hartford truck coming along the highway, they left the two men in the ma chine and started back to Hartford.
 The women told different stories, claiming that they were picked up by the two men who offered to give them ride to Hartford as they were on their way home. After they en- tered the machine it proceeded to Berlin, but when it reached the turn pike, instead of heading toward Hartford, it went toward Neriden. When the women realized the direc- ton in which they were proceeding, they objected, and the alleged as- sault is supposed to have occurred near Silver Lake, just north Of Meriden.
