Excerpt from Proceedings of the New Jersey Conference of Charities and Correction: Twelfth Annual Meeting The twelfth annual meeting of the New Jersey Conference of Charities and Correction, held in Plainfield, began its program by having lay workers occupy the pulpits on Sunday morning, February 2d. The following churches of Plainfield were represented: First Presbyterian Church, Dr. Frank Moore; Crescent Avenue Presbyterian Church. Mrs. John M. Glenn; Trinity Reformed Church, Prof. E. R. Johnstone; Congregational Church, Prof. Henry H. Goddard; Grace Methodist Episcopal Church. Augustus W. Abbott; All Souls' Unitarian Church, Ernest D. Easton; Hope Chapel, C. L. Stonaker; First Methodist Episcopal Church. The Conference has long recognized that much is gained by the community in which the Conference is held. Often a new point of view is acquired winch means many steps forward in social progress and some new workers are added each year to the forces which are striving for State betterment. No doubt the morning service plays an important part in reaching many who would not otherwise have been brought in touch with the Conference.
