CHURCH SERVICE
At the Village Church , Sunday
morning, Sept . 11. the pastor, the
Rev. Robert II. Brock , will preach
a farewell sermon on the theme.
"Silver and Gold Had I None. But
Such as 1 Had Gave 1 Unto Thee."
The anthem , "God So Loved ,"

CHURCH BUSINESS MEETING
At the special business meeting
called for last Sunday noon at the
Village Church , the pastor , the Rev.
Robert H. Brock , presented his res-
ignation, which was accepted with
very sincere regret on the part of
his many friends. Mr. Brock has
served the church for live years
and has won our hearts by his
Christian character aud kindliness,
and our minds by his public mes-
sages which all agree have been
in an unusual degree enlightening
nnd inspiring. He will leave after
next Sunday.
For some years Mr, Brock has
been thinking of entering the Epis-
copal ministry and has grown to
feel that he will be happier In that
communion , will IIml peace of mind
and soul, and will be of greater
usefulness in the service of Christ.
He will be minister in charge ot
the Church of the Advent In Med-
field , Mass. He will attend the Epis-
copal Theological School in Cam-
bridge , for one year .after which
he will be ordained to the Episco-
pal priesthood. He will be followed
into this new experience by the
prayers and sincere good wishes of
this parish.
Mr . Charles A. Altmiller , because
of expected absence from the vil-
lage over a protracted period the
coming year, resigned as treasurer
and trustee of the church , two of-
fices which he has held long and
faithfully. He asked to be relieved
of these offices October first.
It was decided to hold another
business meeting of the church
Monday, September 19, at 8 p.m. In
the vestry, to act on nominations
for treasurer and trustee, and to
discuss a committee for securing a
new pastor.

THE ROVING READER WRITES:
"As the book, 'A Guide to Confi-
dent Living' was receiving its sec-
ond reading, we noted that it had
been taken as the theme for the
sermon at morning service In a Hy-
annis cliurch , which will help you
to believe it is worth while, as In-
deed it is. Certain positive state-
ments are made us to how we may
accomplish 'confident living ' and
each is accompanied by one or more
illustrations from life. Since it is
Impossible to think of the author
us sensational or untruthful , Dr.
Peale having been for a long time
the highly respected pastor of a
great New York City church, the
Marble Collegiate, where 2000 per-
sons are an ordinary Sunday morn-
ing audience , does it not follow that
we might read the ' book and try
some of its prescriptions. Who
would not like to enter upon a llfo
