noon and Night Exercises Well Atten'
ded.
Owing TO the inclemency OF he
weather the attendance al the services
In the morning at the Moundsvilie
Camp Grounds yesterday was not as
large as usual, but in the afternoon
many cane in from the neighboring
towns to hear the distinguished preach
ers.
At $50 in the morning the Help
Meeting took place in the Young Peo-
Piles Temple; Rev. W. Swindells con-
Quoted it. At 1920 the choir sang so,
When Shall | See Jesus?" Rev. Moore
of the Zane Street NJ. E. Church occu-
pied the pulpit. He took for his text:
what must / do TO be Saved?.'
Rev Moore said in order to be saved
we must obey the commandments OF
God.
We must not stand and inquire OF
every person what you should do TO be
saved.
Don't ask anyone but God. Seek Him
early and He will save you.
Then again, if religion were to be
purchased some people could not find
the means to purchase it. Some form
speculative ideas about salvation, mag
inc that they can become religious
whenever they have the desire. The
only way we can obtain salvation is by
faith. This closed the morning service.
At.1:3O 0. m. the Children'S Meeting
was held. Rev Reed told the little ones
several interesting stories of how boys
and girls could serve God.
At 3 o'clock the services opened by
the choir singing "Whiter Than Snow.
Rev. Gordon offered a prayer, which
was followed by the choir singing Il
Love TO Tell the Story"
Rev. Swindells gave talk to the con-
gregation on depending on Ourselves
or Self ReliaAce."
He said we must not cling To the
shore, but launch out in the great sea
of life and place our trust in God. God
will help you If you will give him any
announcement.
His remarks were brief but pointed.
Rev. Jones gave an interesting talk
10 the congregation on the Importance
of Truly Serving God"
Rev. F. n. Lynch also made few
appropriate remarks on True Re-
ligion." The services then closed by
the choir singing Tell it to Jesus"
In the evening at $50 Rev. c. NJ.
Boswell and Rev. Rodhead conducted
the young peoples meeting. Both gem
tlemen gave interesting talks TO the
young folks. The services were closed
by singing 1--WE Shall Meet You in The
City"
At o'clock the regular services in
the auditorium were Opened by the
choir. Rev. Lynch followed with
prayer, and Prof. E. o. Excel, who
sang a solo.
Rev. Reid conducted the services.
His text was taken from the fifteenth
chapter of ST. Luke, I'd verse: This
man receiveth sinners and eateth with
them" This text, said the minister,
was uttered by the enemies Of Christ; il
is one of the most precious truths found
in Scriptures. This text is the counter
part of the angels song on the Judean
Hills-''Glory TO God in the Highest"
The sinners were surprised that Christ
should associate with sinners; but they
did not understand his mission. He re-
lated several instances where Christ
associated with sinners. He also
said they were drawn 10 him
not by Christ making lightof their sins,
but by fixing it in their hearts that God
was a forgiven of sins. Christ loved
sinners but not their sins; he delights to
receive great sinners. There are diff
sinned, but not ar are equal sinners.
Again. our sins may keep us out OF
l,oo,-o,, brr not from Christ
He closed by urging all TO trust
Christ and receive Christ, For to as
many as received Him, TO them gave he
power TO become the sons of God, even
70 as many as believe on His name"
EThe choir closed the services by sing
ing: care You. Ready?"
Tomorrow morning Rev. Merritt
Hubbard, of the Park street Church,
