;i)n will he long renfm- hered by the mcml)ers of the Dickens Fellowship for its many unusual, and in some cases tragic, experiences. A\ the January meeting, a cordial invi¬ tation was extended to the Fellow¬ ship, hy Mr. and .Mrs. (1. .\. Schnee- lieli to make their home tlie regul.ir meeting place of the Fellowship for the remainder of the season. The February meeting fell upon Febru¬ ary 6. Mr. Schneebeli was taken ill Just a few days before, and hurried arrangements had to be made, and an invitation from Miss Clara Oiering was accepted. Mr, Schneebeli passed away on that very day. and a storm of blizzard-like proportions prevent¬ ed all but two or three making their way to the place of the meeting. Ar¬ rangements were then made for the March meeting at the home of the Rev. and Mrs. Chas. D. Krelder, and again a :.,torm. almost as severe as that in February prevented a gather¬ ing of more than two DIckensians other than the host and hostess. .An Invitation for the .April meeting from Dr. and .Mrs. J. Max Hark was ac¬ cepted, but shortly before the date, the first Tuesday in the inontu, the indisposition of Mrs. Hark and the accident which Dr. Hark suffered, again made a change of place neces¬ sary.
Plans for the future include the May meeting at the home of the Pres¬ ident, .Mrs. Florence Brockman. at which the Rev. Chaa. D. Krelder will load Ihe discussion on ".A Study in Heredity and Environment." and the June meeting at the home of the Rev. and Mrs. Chas. D. Kreider. at whicli .Mrs. Brockman will have charge of the program, with the subject, "Scenes and Places in Bleak House."
.At present the Fellowship has an enrollment of 59, of which 3S are ful¬ ly "|iai<l up" for the season. The dues are 50 cents, and should be paid to the Rev. Ceorge F. Fahnsen, treas¬ urer.

firmaliou class of St. John's Ite- formed church was held on Wednes¬ day evening of last week under the auspices of the Young People's So¬ ciety. From S lo .S,30 there was a short but interesting program of talks, readings and iiuisi.al selec¬ tions. Rev. W. H, Woiriug gave a fine speech at the close of the pro¬ gram, after which all repaired to the social room and spent an hour play¬ ing games. Refresliiiien'.s were serv¬ ed, after whi.h games were again played. This r.cepiion waa one of the beat for ii long time, especially so liecause the Young Peopb''s So¬ ciety took .'111ire ch.irge and carried the plans ihrough successfully.

Considering modern changes In customs and thought. It may be sometimes neces.sary to trim their sails a bit fo the winds of the time, but they will still keep alike in essen¬ tials. The first attribute of success¬ ful church work is the spirit, and Ihe second, the degree to which it i.s or¬ ganized. Mr. Gold emphasized par¬ ticularly the atlvantages of efilcient organization.
He closed with the words. "We may sow, we may plant, we may water our prospective harvest, but the reaping depends upon a higher power than our own."
Rev, H, R, Gold will be remem¬ bered by our readers as being a N'azareth young man, a graduate of the' N'azareth High school class of 1S95 and has a host of local friends that wish him the best of success in his new field of labors.
