The need for only one church in \ small community and the ability for this one church to get along much better and with much more effectiveness than several of various denominations, was strlklngly brought out at the closing exercises Of the 15oth anniversary celebration at the Berlin Congregational church last evening. The one church idea was the thought stressed by nearly all of the II visiting clergymen who addressed the meeting.
 The church was filled almost 10 capacity and the meeting was one of the most interesting ever held Tn Berlin. Words of greeting ana felicitation took up the time for the most part. but nearly every minister who spokc had some enjoning word 10 say to the members of the church which has so successfully reached 15O years of accomplishment.
