NEW PASTOR PREACHES 
Rev. Louis H. Ruge Assumes Duties as 
Pastor of Congregational Church, Manchester 
Rev. Louis H. Ruge, the new pas- 
tor of the Congregational church, 
Manchester, assumed his duties last 
Sunday, preaching strong sermons at 
both the morning and _ evening 
services. 
“The Lord of unity’’ was the sub- 
ject of his morning sermon, his text 
being ‘That you may all live together 
in the same mind and in the same 
judgment.” 
He spoke of the law of unity in the 
physical and philosophical world and 
the forces in the world that hold men 
together. Following are a few ex- 
cerpts from his sermon : 
“We grow strong in our human de- 
velopment and in the progress of the 
world when we unite. Patriotism is 
one of the forces which unite men. 
There is a stronger touch than the 
touch of elbows; there is the touch 
of souls: The camp _ life levels 
humanity and in time of war we are 
one in that mighty purpose of repell- 
ing the enemy of our country. 
“Fear is another element that unites 
us; affliction is another. There is no 
creed, no caste that divides us above 
the coffin lid. The day of calamity is 
the day that unites man. 
“Notwithstanding the fact that 
fraternal societies are increasing and 
labor unions are binding men together 
for a common cause, there is but one 
union that demonstrates the spirit of 
human brotherhood and that is the 
church of Jesus Christ. If we live 
separated lives we can accomplish 
little, but welded together we .shall 
be a mighty power in salvation and 
the establishment of righteousness 
among men. We are to be joined 
together as a family in the work of 
the Lord. All the differences we 
have need not make us unbrotherly. 
We shall give due weight to the con- 
victions of others, then shall harmony 
be brought forth from this unity — 
from this church. We may stand 
apart in our views of Certain things, 
but as we grow toward Him there 
shall be a merging of souls in the 
Christ life. Weare together here in 
little pools, separated from our fel- 
lows, but when the broad ocean of 
God’s love rolls in we are all together 
in Christian fellowship.” 
A new departure in school work in 
this vicinity is that of the St. John’s 
Preparatory college which opens at 
Danvers next Tuesday, and whose 
advertisement appears in another 
page of this issue. There will be 
practical high school courses and also 
grammar and commercial courses. 
The school is now open to visitors.
