tsrdsy, morning. at theFirstlfethodist
Episcopal church. to speak of the inva-
sins of New England by
Jane Lee, the pioneer of the
W church. After speaking of
theintrodnction of the other denoniiiib-
tionsinto New England he said: Pro-
vide-es has the honor of being the birth-
place of the Baptist denomination in
America, New York of the Reformed,
Bum of Congregationalism. These

‘dhmtoNswEngland, first heralded the
Gospelandofiereda free salvationto
the people. This, I am sure,may be con-
Isideredone of the great historic events

of the town.
‘Before this date Methodism had spread

wet and south, I and had already grown
to a considerable army. It was In 1766
that it was ushered into New Yorkas
one of the religious forces of the country.
Its introduction was dramatic. Barbara
Heck, with the spirit of Deborah upon
her, rebuked a company of nominal
Christians who were playingcards, and
snatching the cards threw them into the
fire, and then going to the house of
Philip Embury, a backslidden local
prmcher, and aroused him to his duty,
andsethim to preaching the Gospel to
the Godless people. From that time on
Hethodism spread like a forest fire. The
Wyn! those early days is full of in-
cidents the most thrilling, of heroism
tho most divine. A diamond in the
rough was Benjamin Abbot, a diamond
polished was Freeborn Garretson, but he

as the rough and ignorant Abbott.

his invasion began immediately. His

“The Great Invasion" began. This in-

Icarus entering New England at this
oouthern gate, there was another inva~
lion going forward in Boston—the flotill-

Methodist historians need not be (shed,
that when Methodism entered, New Eng.
land spirituality was at a very low ebb.
Those were days when the ripest fruit of
the Hallway Covenant was conspicious.
The Half-way Covenant made it possible
for every man. woman and child to be
practically a member of the church and
enjoy the privilege of the sacraments
without regeneration or conversion. The

hsgInnlngnf his New England, invasion

one of themost illustrious events of the
towns.

Itisthespecial object of the celebra-
Ion of this week to raise funds to
mark the historic places in the town,
and this is a worthy thing to
do, and should have the enthusiastic
support of every loyal citizen, and now
let meask could there be a more fitting
time for this church to take some dell-
nite steps towards marking with a suit-
able tablet the historic event of which I
have spoken this morning. For a num-
berof years the olllcisryand members
of this church have been tailing of the
necessity of a new and more suitable
building for worship and work. About
one year ago a princely offer was made
by Mrs. Hill. During the past few
weeks that ofierhss been submitted in
writing to the trustees and entire oflciol
board,and is now under consideration
as to its details, and it is hoped that
before this week shall pass. the papers
shall befully considered and accepted.
With thispurpose in view I am requested
to call a meeting of the ofiieial board for
tomorrow night at 8 o’clock, and a meetv
ing of the membership of the church
and congregation and all supporters of
the church for Thursday night. At the
close of the prayer meeting, the com-
mittee who have had this matter in
charge will report to the church all the
steps that have thus far been taken and
the present status of the project.
consummation of the preliminaries can be
reached this week, then we shall as a
church have taken an important part in
the celebration of the week, in that we
shall have inauguratedthe marking of
this historic invasion.

NEED 01’ UNITED ACTION.

We Should lake It Better Use of Our
Power to Combat Evil.
Yesterday morning, at the South Nor-
walk Baptistchurch, the pastor preached
the tenth in the series of sermons .on
“The Kingdom of God Among Men."

The subject wits “Through Conflict to ~

Cbnqueet," and the text, blatiliew x.. 34.
The preacher said the thought of this
sermon is that there is, and of necessity
must be, an irrepressible conflict between
the kingdom of God and the kingdom of
this world until God's kingdom shall
have become fully established. The two
cannot exist together. It must beliually
one or the other. They can neither unite
norconfederate. The fact of this con-
flict is written allover and between the
lines of human history. As to its nature,
it is between the powers of evil and good,
between Satan and the forces of evil on
the one hand, and Christ and the forces
of good on the other; a contest between
light and darkness. [I is both objective
and subjective. It often is quite as
strong and fierce within the individual
soul between conflicting tendencies as it
is outside. The reason for this conflict is
found in the nature of evil and of evil
men. Christ stated it clearly when he
said, “And this is the condemnation, that
light is come into the world and men
loved darkness rather than light because
their deeds were evil." It is only natur-
al for evilto fight against exposure. It
is only through this conflict that peace is
to bsmtablisbed. Evil is imperious sn

selfish. It will not remain even appar-
ently neutral.‘ It is never actually so.
A truce on the part of good is. therefore,
avirtusl surrender to evil. Ponce can-
not be‘purchased by compromise. it is
the duty of the church not to suppress
this conflict. but to push it vigorously to
Mimi and successful issue. The active
church, therefore, is bound to bee dis~
turbing influence in a community where
there is any evil. The church should
neither pnrley nor compromise lie
whme end in life is only to attain ease}
comfort. fame, culture, and the gratifica-
lion of his Issues; he who does not accept
life are warfare demanding the endur-
ancc of hardness for Christ. has not yet
accepted the Christian idea. The forces
of evil are organized and determined;
Christian forces are divided. This Is a
mistake. There is need of united sc-
tlou. When this shall be it will be dis-
covered that what is needed is not more
power, but a better use of what we have.
in the eveningthe subject was "A Brave
Young flan.”

Christin. Unity.

At the Norwalk muons! church
yesterday. Rev. Frank Russell, D.D.,
preached two earnest sermons. its made
a strong plea for Christian Unity, rejoic-
ing that sectarian barriers were being
broken down and that more Christians

tion devoted to such a noble cam. At
the conclusion of his sermon, llr. Web
kins read 'a brief and encouraging report
of the financial standing of the Norwalk
hospital, and chord by saying it was his
hopsandearnestdssire that a hospital
would be erected in Norwalk in the fu-
ture. A liberal contributton for the
hospital followed. In the evenihg the
rector preached from the text “One
Thing I Know." Notwithstanding the
heat good-sized congregations were pres-
ent at both services.
, Founders' Day Bervlces.

Founders’ Day services were held at
the N orwalk Methodist church last night.
There was patriotic music by the choir,
which was reinforced by an orchestra.‘
The members of the Norwalk branches
of the Sons and Daughters of the
gmerican Revolution, Buckingham Post,
G. A. R., and the Woman's Relief Corps
attended in a body. The church was
beautifully decorated with flags and
hunting, the handiwork of the ladies of
the church. The address of the evening

was made by the Rev. A. H. Wyatt.

At St. nary's Church.

At the 10:30 o'clock services Rev. Wil'
liam J. Slocum gave an historical ad-
dress which treated upon the strife of
the church and the raging of war against
the Crown at that time, and of the pre-
sent position of both. “Better that some
people cannot trace their ancestros,"
he said, when he touched the point of
ancestral searchers. His remarks were
delivered in a manner that completely
absorbed the attention of his hearers.

Dpctnr Board‘s Sermons.
Rev. Gerald H. Beard preached two
excellent sermons in the South Norwalk
Congregational church, yesterday. In
the morning his topic was “Christ‘s Test
for Discipleship." Miss Louise Aben
droth sang very sweetly “Not Ashamed
of Christ," by Danks. Mr. Beard‘s even-
ing subject was "The Day of Decision.”

on having exact measurements made,
that the variation from the center was
much less than at first stated by the city
engineer, who said that in front of Rich.
ard H. Golden’s property the outside rail
would be three and one-half feet nearer
his curb than the corresponding rail of
the east track would be to that curb. On
accurate measurement the variation of
the tracks from the center of the street
was less than two inches, so that the
westerly rail was less than four inches
nearer Mr. Golden‘s curb than the easter-
ly rail was to the Matthews curl).

The most serious actual variation is in
front of Russell Frost‘s property, where
the rail, be proposed to be laid. would be
three feet and four inches nearer the
curb than would be the case on the oppo-
aim side. The president of the company,
E. J. Hill, has agreed with the property-
owners that the location of the tracks
will be changed as far as [lOSBIble to com'
