At the Congregational church last 
Sunday Rev. Mr. Goddard preached 
an interesting sermon from the text: 
‘“‘Thy Kingdom Come.’’ He empha- 
sized the fact that God’s kingdom 
is a spiritual kingdom; that he is 
ever present with men, striving to 
lead them aright. <A pleasing fea- 
ture of this service was the solo of 
Helen Grinnel Mears. In the Junior 
Endeavor a special talk was given 
on the illustrated Bible scenes by 
Lydia Raymond. The Senior YPS 
CE meeting was led by Miss M. P. 
Polleys; subject: Missions in Eur- 
ope. In the evening stereoscopic 
pictures illustrating the lives and 
customs and scenes in India were 
shown in the church. These views 
were prepared by the American 
Board of Foreign Missions and gave 
the congregation an idea of the vast 
population of India, the beauty of 
its natural scenery, the degradation 
and ignorance of a vast majority of 
its inhabitants, the beginning and 
growth of missions in schools and 
colleges and churches, and the civil- 
izing and uplifting effect of a change 
of the convert to Christianity. Rev. 
Mr. Goddard described each picture 
as it was thrown upon the screen. 
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Elwell of Mal- 
den made their usual fortnightly 
visit to Mrs. Henry W. Mears on 
Northern avenue over the week-end. 
The Daughters of the Covenant 
will hold a Hallowe’en social in the 
vestry of the Congregational church 
tonight. It is a private party, each 
member of the society having the 
privilege of inviting three persons. 
A fine time is expected.

One fourth part of Issachar’s Hill, 
so-called, has been purchased by 
Brainard B. Story. The whole hill 
comprises a tract of 18 acres. This 
is one of the most beautiful spots in 
Essex. No doubt the rest of the 
property will be sold some time for a 
good round sum. 
Thomas H. Procter was a recent 
visitor to Lawrence. He went as a 
special guest of the Mayor of Law- 
rence to be present at the N. E. Fire- 
men Association, and at the meeting 
of the association he was introduced 
as the oldest living fireman in New 
England. Mr. Procter stood at the 
side of the president of the associa- 
tion on the platform and when it 
was told that Mr. Procter was 91 
years of age, the whole convention, 
1,000 strong, stood up and gave three 
hearty cheers. Mr. Procter then was 
voted in as honorary member. A 
number of banquets were given in 
his honor, and at the banquet given 
by the firemen’s wives, he was the 
guest of honor—in fact he was the 
only gentleman present. He was in 
Lawrence a week and had the time 
of his life. Besides being banqueted 
he was carried on auto rides and ey- 
ery attention that could be thought 
of was paid him. Mr. Procter says 
the trip added ten years to his life. 
The Congregational Vestry was a 
place of joy and festivity Thursday 
evening. The Ladies’ Home circle 
then held a supper and sale of home 
made preserves, fruits and vegeta- 
bles. It is needless to say that the 
supper was O. K 
A Hallowe’en party was given by 
Miss Alberta Goodhue to eight of her

happy time. Not only were they 
happy, but ambitious, for as they 
went through the streets, they sang 
‘<vote for women,’’ ‘‘ vote for

such vigor that even Miss Foley her- 
self would have been proud to have 
heard them.
