Rev. W.‘ W. l. Duncan
Delivers a Sermon on “fire
investuieut of life”-——
Special. Musical Program
Rendered by first M. E.
church Choir

Members of tire different the 00m-
pauicry of South Norwalk and East
Norwalk, attended divine service at
the South Norwalk Methodist Church

; last evening. and listened to a most
eloquent sermon by Rev. W. W. T.
Duncan. A special musical service was
rendered which was well carried out
by the members of the choir, who
were in good voice. Mr. Duncan pray-
ed eloquently for the good of the mun-
icipality and those who guide its des—
tinies and asked especially that it be
delievcrcrl from political intrigue and
mlsruie. The church was decorated
with the American flag, which was fes-
toorred yrbout the rail of the choir gal-
lery and about the. pulpit.

Mr. Duncan preached from the text.
"Whosocver shrill havo his life shall
lose it; whosoever shall lose his life.
shall saVe it. " Mr. Duncan said in part:

Jesus Christ was the great proclaim-
er of ra'dtrxcs. The real Jesus Christ
was he most perfectly naturalized

an that ever walked the earth. He

ad the wisdom of the serpent and
the harmlessness of the dove. He was
the most radical as well as the most
gentle of reformers. At the first all
men sought for him, at the end they
all forsook Him. He fled from a crown
as if' it “were a serpent. The only
crown He ever were was the crown of
thorns He went straight to His death.
When men tried to deter Him He told
them to depart. A man from the most
close minded race in the world plan-
ned the greatest monarchy the world
can eyer know. He knew trrere were
things that men hated and despised.
He knew that the publican was hated
because of his oxtarion, and yet he was
the guest of I pribllcan.

Jesus was contradictory.-..lu... His
words also He said that the greatest
work a man can do is to believe. Jo'-
rrus uttered tir scrum the text,
which are the oil: contuiriirtury of
all. These things-”were not centrici-
ties. Eocerrtricities arc unmet lug out-
side of the circle. ‘h'l‘ use were the very
concentric features. Take. away that
characteristic of passing by the pow-
erful and wealthy and taking rip the
common people. and you take away
one of the greatest attributes of the
Son of Man. These were in His char-
ac er because His was a perfect char-
ac er; a complete character He es—
pouscd the. rarrse of the. common pco.
pic bccarrsc heI lived the whole of
life.

You as fircrrrcti'arct orrrrrritted to the
“invented iifc. " You have invested
your time in our city. You have In-
vested your convenience: rrrore than
this. your safety is invested. You will
run into the flame if need be.

WESIPORI CHURCH
STRUCK BY lltilliNlNii

Bolt Struck Town of New Assumption
Catholic Edition and Old Damage
to the Extent of 3600.

During the thunder storm yester-
day afternoon lightning struck the tow
er of the new Catholic Church of tho
Assumption in Westport. and did dam-
age which is estimated at $600. When
the bolt struck the tower. from the
ceiling it went down into the vestir
hole and from there followed a tele
phone wire into the house or the rec-
tor. Rev Thomas H Shanley, adjoin-
ing but did no damage there. it is
feared it will be necessary to rebuild
the tower

About a year ago the church was
struck by lightning in the same place
and damaged considerably. The con-
gregation had left about fifteen min-
rrtes before it was struck yesterday.

This morning the damage was esti-
mated by a Westport gentleman to be
as high as 83. 000 The spire is octa-
gonal and one of the eight sides was
entirely torn to pieces down to the
tower. There is much speculation as
to whether the supports of the tower
will have to be rebuilt.

'l‘he crash came about noon and for-
tunateiy no one was in the chrrrch at
the time. the service having been an
unusually short one.

The same shower struck Norwalk
with considerable force, but it is not
believed that much damage was done
here. The Church of the Assumption
is practically a new church. brrt so far
it has been struck twice by lightning.
the first time having been last sum~
mer.

innovation in Pedagogy
in Dorian Public School

Principal noisy Introduces I Novel
Method. Combining Teaching of
Geography and History.

———.

 

 

The wheel year iust clowd has seen
some marked improvement in the cur-
riculum It the GI r School. which is
under the care of rincipai w. E. Per-
ry. "The work has been Iuccoo‘aful in
every respect and marks an Innovation
in pedagogy. .Thls‘l‘eulure of the edu-
cational work of the your consists in
theoombinatlon leaching of geography
and history. both from maps. It has
been worked rrp by Mr. Perry and is
now one of. the important parts of
study. Everyone who has studied his
geography carefully and who. in his
school days, stood 100 in that impor-
tnnl branch, has experienced the dim
culty of locating certain atatbs or for-
rltorics or even certain countries in
after years. Mr. Perry‘s method
serves to fix this in the memory of” the
pupils under him and also to give them
a historical knowledge of that section
of the World. its products. too.‘are
comprised in the association of ideas
which the mere mention of the name
of the place brings to the mind.

These results are attained by the
useof outline maps of the different sec-
tion under study. Blackboard outline
maps have been used in a number of
other schools with good results but it
has remained for Mr. Perry to perfect
the idea in its most practical form.

This "is done by outline maps on
sheets of paper which can be furnished
to pupil as often as necessary.
These maps are made with a hekio
graph and have no names or localities
upon them or in fact any designating
mark. One of these is handed to the
pupil who traces in them the different
rivers which flow there.
down the names of the cities which be»
long on that particular map. The
mountains and plains are designated
by the pupil.

Another blank map is handed to the
pupil who inscribes thereon the pro-
ducts which come from the different
parts of the country.

The historical part of it Is indicated
by the form of government which ex-
ists there, also the dates of important
events and where those events took
place. This, by the force of associa-
tion of ideas and the cultivation of the
pupils' "bump of locality." as the phre
nologists would say. fixes the facts
clearly and firmly in his memory. This
outline map work has been done this
past your in all the grades with excel-
lent auccess. Some of the map draw-
ings which were exhibited at the grad-
uatlon exercises held last week at the
town hall were ‘almost worthy of I pro-
fessionnl geographer. The work was
a revelation to the parents of the child-
ren who attend the Center school. It
reflects great credit on Mr. Perry as
being a teacher who teaches along the
correct lines as shown by investiga-
tions in psychology. During the com-
ing year Mr. Perry hopes to be able to
have the Iytsem still further extended
and mode more practical in its work-
Inga.

ed a french-Canadian who
was Acting in a Suspicious
Mamet Near the Riverside
Mlls. East Norwallr. Ibis
Morning

Constable Goodwin this morning ar-
rested on I charge of vagrancy, Ed-
ward Lemler, of Warren. R. l.. It is
believed that Lemler is guilty of the
theft of a bicycle and the police are
now looking for the owner of the ma-
chine. This morning .l. S. Randall.
of EIIt Norwalk. saw a man who acted
in a suspicious mannK. He was bid-
ing behind I pile of lumber at the
Riverside Mills and was engaged in
cleaning the mud off a bicycle. Sev-
eral of the employees at the Mills saw
the man also and noticed that he acted
in I queer manner. Constable Good-
win was communicated with by tele-
phone and went to where the man
was.

"Whose wheel is that?" he asked the
man.

“Mine." replied the fellow.

He could not give a very good ac-
count of himself and acted as if he
could not speak English very well.
Constable Goodwin prrt the bicycle in
the Riverside Mills and took the fol-
low to the lockup. There. in response
to questions by a French interpreter.
he denied that he ever owned the
wheel and that he knew nothing
about it. He also denied that he was
a Canadian and said he was a hostler
by traue. He said that his name was
Edward lemler or something that
sounded like that. He would not write
it or spell it. He is at present held
on a charge of vagrnncy, though it is
believed that he will be found upon in-
vestigation to have appropriated the
bicycle.

Yesterday afternoon a young man
who appeared to he very nervous and
excited. reported to Chief of Police
Vollmsrthat his bicycle had been atol-
en. He did not ve his name and said
that'as‘soou‘ as e could get the num.
her and a description of the missing
machine. that lie would return and tell
the chief. He had not returned at
press hour today. Chief Voilmer wish-
er The Sentinel to state that if the
young man will call at police head-
quarters today that he will be given
a chance to identify the. tricycle found
in the possession of the Canadian. If
it is learned that lmnrler stole the
wheel found in his persuasion. the
charge against him will be changed.
He is a man apparently about thirty
years of age. small and dark. with
gray eyes. He takes his arrest non-
chalantly.

as Greenland. The vicinity sees about
three months of summer. June, July

John. better known as “Honness.”
Weisheit, of Taylor avenue. was quite
seriously injured Saturday. Mr. Wei.
shelt owns some lots in Granibeviile

doing this he attempted to lift a good
sized rock. The strain was too much
for him and he fell over- in a faint. it
was necessary to cdrry him to his

Something Wrong With Selectman
LanI' “Little Joe." and the Did

To the catboat Critic belongs the
credit of winning Saturday's race of

I

Owing to the threatening weather
and rain saturday afternoon only two
boats started These yachts were the
open cats Critic and Little Joe, the
former owned by Walter Strohmeyer
and the latter by Selectman Samuel
Lynes. Mr. Lyons sailed his own boat.
while Gilbert E. Bogart managed the
Critic.

When Mr. Lynes tried to sail his
boat to the windward he found that
there wds something radically wrong.
and he could do absolutely nothing
with her and has not yet, learned the
cause of her actions. During the win-
ter she was fitted with an iron shoe
weighing more than half a too, but it
is not known whether this had any
bearing on the way she sailed. The
Little Joe however in running off
from the wind behaved beautifully and
left her odponent far astern.

There was much speculation over
the way the Little Joe would perform
this season, as she hII had a great
deal of work done on her since last.
fall by Captain Eph Merritt at his
Water street. Norwalk, shop.

Mr..Lynss had the hearty iron shoe
made and put on in hope that it wou.d
benefit her. but to guard against the
chance of her not doing so well, a duo.
licate woodenshoe was made and can
be put into waitlon on short notice.
With the wooden shoe more bullIst
would be necessary in side of the
boat. in addition to this her spars
are new and Mr. Lynes had a very
fine half silk sail made for her.

Mr. Lynes evidently thinks the trou-
ble is with the iron shoe as he intends
first to cut some of it off. Another
yachtsman has expressed the opinion
that the trouble is with the peak, he
rieving that there is too much of it.

The starting signal was given It

the return at 4:06:46. Fletcher H.
