Rev. Joseph Sessions, from Connecti
cut, preached at the Baptist Church il
the morning, and at the Congregations
Church in the afternoon. Mr.. Sessions
is one OF four brothers GALL clergymen.
He was born in this town in 1901, where
he spent his early days, but left here ovel
fifty years ago, and now finds but very
few of his old boyhood associates anC
playmates. His text in the afternoon
was, "Charity sufEereth long and is kind,
treating the word charity as love, anC
dividing his discourse into two heads
LIST, the long suffering Of love, and I'd, the
kindness Of love. He spoke of the long
suffering of God towards men, but his
theme was, MAYNARD" Christians
should have this long suffering of love
towards their brethren, be careful in iudg
& ing, should always remember the ''bean
in their own eyes" when pulling The
''mote" from the eyes of brethren OF
& neighbors, that this long suffering was
necessary to the peace and quiet O.
ueighborhoods and communities, and alb
a SOutely necessary in families where low
should always reign. Men and womer
before marriage think each other angels
81 afterwards find that they are human, ant
need much of this charity, or else hasty
words will ruin the happiness and peace
of families. The speaker briefly anC
feelingly spoke of the kindness of love
''Kind words will never die" How many
souls kind words have saved, how the,
will cheer the responding, accelerate ant
inspire the good, save those that ar
ready to perish, especially if addressed il
4 kind and tender tone Of voice, as if w
felt for their welfare. That these littl
acts Of kindness could be performed b,
ALL and thus the world be made more low
ing, kind, and cheerful, and each one
path smoothed to the grave and whel
passing through the dark valley, one o
the most cheering, pleasing thoughts is T.
remember kind words uttered, kind act
performed, and that we had lived life O
charity. The speaker is strong and Wig
orous for his years, gave a solid, pract
cal sermon, and may he yet live man
days to work for the Master,
