The chancel was occupied by the Ri.
Rev. Bishop Bissell, Rev. Homer White,
Rev. Thomas ]. Taylor, Rev. T. W. Has
kin, Rev. D. G. Roberts and the rector,
Rev. Walter Mitchell. The services were
read by the Revs. Messrs. White, Tay-
lor and Haskin. Rev. Daniel Q. Roberts
Of Brandon preached the sermon from LIST
Cor. xii, 4, SO.
Now there are dlversltes of gifts, but the
same Spirit
And there are differences of administrations,
but the same Lord.
And there are diversities of operations; but
1t is the same God which " orketh all In all.
The sermon was an able and earnest plea
for more thorough organization in carrying
out the details of church work, and dwelt
upon the necessity Of being practical in
carrying the spiritual blessings of Chris
tianity to the masses, which term includes
not the poor, but all outside the fold of
Christ. The duty of the church is to make
men Christians. What the church too
often does is to place the means of sal
walton within reach and leave the leading
of men to accept those means TO the min
lister and few leading members. This is
the work which belongs to every individual
| member of the church as well. The i'm
| perfection Of the parish as means for this
work was then considered, and the de-
| STABILITY OF having various societies forme
for this purpose with authority from and
under the control of the convention.
Preceding the sevices Mr.. L. A. Morse,
organist of the church, played spirited
voluntary, followed by the trio "Hear our
prayer" by John NJ. Abbott, sung by Miss
Hattie Edison, Mrs. George E. Graves and
Mr.. F. M. Davis. The trio was finely rem
dered, Miss Edison giving the soprano solo
particularly we'll. The music throughout
the services was excellent, even above the
usual high standard of this choir. An elab-
crate "Cantate" by II. p. banks, was
sung with solos for soprano and tenor by
Miss Edison and Mr.. Bailey: and the hymns
GLORIOUS things OF thee are spoken" and
"Lead, kindly light" The following il
