to Mr. Pratt. worked for him as a

Methodist

Oflicials Express All
. Good ‘ Wishes to
Treasurer
The members of the Official
Board of the Norwalk Methodist Ep~
Iseopal church gage a dinner last
evening at the Royal James Inn in
honor of the 81th birthday of D.
W. Fitch. of 28 West avenue. who
has held an official position in the
church longer than any other man
on the Board. . .
C. E. Sluuson was master of core-
monies and in a speech in' behalf of
his collegues presented Mr. l-‘ilch
with a. large. bouquet of roses. Mr.
Fitch made a very happy response.
and recalled the names of the strong
and faithful men who had been his
fellow workers in the early history
of the church. He also expressed his
appreciation of the present official
and affirmed his confidence In the
prcscnt and futbro success of the
church under their leadership.
Mr. Fitch Joined the Xorwalk Mc-
Illodist Episcopal church in 1861 and
for forty-five years has been the or-
ganizations active and efficient treas-
urer. which office he still fills with
great acceptability. Despite his eigh-
ly four years Mr. Fitch is still young
and alert and his brethern on the of-
flitiul board sincerely hope that he
may round out a half century as the
treasurer of the church which he has
loved and served so loyalty these
many years.

trouble and Illustrated this by an in—
stance that occurred to him when a
boy. Said he used to travel with his
father on the Mississippi steamboats.
In those days betting was prevalent.

ly looking man coming aboard and
attracting so much attention wagers
were offered if; was about the most
ugly looking man in me state of
Louisiana. Said his father took the
bet. for he knew there was a. stoker
he though was more so-—-went down
in the engine room to bring this
stokcr up and have the bet decided.
When he told the man what the bot
was and that he would get. a part of
it, the than began to make grtmsces.
his father said. "Now stop that. be
your natural self and we will win."
and I understand they did.
"Perhaps all this is a little foreign
to the subject—what I am trying to
say to you‘ls there should be (duca-
tional advantages for those who de-
sire them. Take for instance. book-
keeping. we seldom find a young man
who can Intelligently Interprct a bill-
ancc sheet—that is sometimes true
with sdhle bank directors. This is a
very important matter. for if shares
are to be purchased in any company.
the only safe wag in making the
purchase is to go over the company's
reports, and that requires some
knowledge of bookkeeping.
"Now just a word to the ladies.
who have honored me by calling

ford housk-thcre is no question of
the good use they will make of it. if
we do half as well we will be fortu-

a. young woman to know how to cook
intelligently. even If she does not

good many of our ailments are the
result of improper cooking. I eccent-

geon. Charles Mayo. who said quite
'a number of stomach ulcers. even
cancer. were the result of improper
cooking. so there is our health to be
considered as wellu the pleasure to

to show there is something else be-
