REV. THos. L. PRESTON, D. D.

REV. THOS. L. PRESTON, D. D.
preached at the Eightieth Anniversary
OF the First Presbyterian church, Rich
mond, Va, May LIST, 1922
One generation shall praise thy works
TO anOther."-Psalm cxlv. 4
We are singing to-day the Hymns
of the Ages. We are praising God
as his people have always praised
him. We gather and treasure up
the sweet notes of the singers of
Israel, and repeat the refrain of
every anthem of alteration and
praise that inspired lips have ut
tered. The music is not foreign to
US; 1T is ours by inheritance. The
generations past taught it to their
children, and they in turn to us :;
and may our tongue cleave to the
roof of our mouth if we forget
Jerusalem and the praises that be-
long to him who dwells in the high
and holy place.
The Progress of Piety.
We to-day can strike higher notes
than any ever before reached. Our
experience of the grace of God is
larger than that of the generations
past. Every day brings new tokens
of his love, that inspire our hearts
to nobler utterances of praise. We
cannot look back upon all the way
the Lord has led us these eighty
years, as we are called to do to-day,
and not utter from the heart thanks
giving and praise to him who has
ordered our footsteps according to
his word With our songs are in
termingled the minor strains that
sorrow suggests. Adversely has
given depth of tenderness to our
tones that no unalloyed Joy could
ever give, and full-voiced songs
come only from those who have
wept, as poets learn in suffering
what they teach in song"
You have not wasted the heritage
that comes to you from the past.
The history of your church which
ID as been read shows with what faith
md patience and toll your congre-
CATION was gathered and organized.

long past have availed, and to-day

The Wonderful Book

The Bible has attained its pre-
sent supremacy in the world of lit
erature by a conflict that is without
a parallel in the history of written
and printed volumes. 1t is the on
ly book on earth which is printed
in hundreds of languages and dia-
lects. 1t is the only book for which
languages are invented, that it NAV
be read where written and printed
works were previously unknown.
tits the only book on earth which
has been printed by hundreds of
millions, and is now being multi
piled by thousands every day, and
by millions every year. 1t is the
only book on earth for the transla-
ton of which holy men have been
hunted like wild beasts until thew
were captured and burned alive.
1t is the only book on earth for the
reading of which thousands of be-
levers have suffered the spelling of
their goods, Punishment from their
homes, imprisonment i'm filthy dun
geOns, and then death amid the
flames It's harmless conflict with
unbelieving science is scarcely
worthy of being noted. compared
with its bloody conflict with the
Church of Bome-the corrupt Chris
tiauity of millions. But the Bible
has triumphed over every princi-
pality and power Nowhere is it's
triumph greaterthan i'm the English
speaking world Tt is the Bible
that gives us what is best purest,
and strongestin the language which
lis the only conquering language i'm
either the Old World or the New.

UNEXPECTED.
A Storm Which Sweeps Down
ON the British Coast.
Many Vessels Tossed About
Like CoCkle-Shells.

Thrilling Escape of the Crew of a Nor

Fishing Vessels Missing-A Number o
Lives Known to Have Been Lost.
LONDON, April 29.-The British coas
was visited Wednesday night by ter
rife storm. Disasters are reported from
all quarters, especially the eastern coast
along Yorkshire and the northern shore!
of England and the southern part OF
Scotland. The storm came unexpected
ly, as the weather for a few days pas
has been bright.
or Scarborough.
The scene off the Scarborough land
was fearful. The boats were caught in
the storm which descended almost with
the suddenness of cyclone, and made
strenuous efforts to get within shelter OF
the harbor.
Multitudes ran to the cliffs, and every
effort was made to assist the struggling
seamen. Cheers greeted each boat as il
gained shelf :, and ready hands were ex.
tended to help the men ashore, where
the women and children were waiting in
anxious crowds. One fishing boat was
swamped and four of the crew were
drowned.
or Berwick.
Off Berwick a thrilling spectacle was
witnessed. The Norwegian schooner
Rederinden was driven before the gale.
The crew struggled vainly to escape be-
ing wrecked, but the storm was too
much for them. Their vessel struck
and was knocked about by the waves
with fury that threatened every mo-
ment to break it to pieces.
Efforts We're made to throw line by
means of rocket, but every attempt
was failure. The crew of hardy Morse
men saw their only chance, and plunged
into the waves. They We're all excellent
swimmers, and the crowd on shore sent
up mighty cheer of encouragement.
AS they neared the beach score of men
rushed into the waves and pulled them
to safety. All were saved.
At North Shields.
At North Shields two fishing boats
foundered on the Norfolk coast, but the
crews were saved.
On the Norfolk Coast.
Along the Norfolk coast it is feared
that several wrecks have occurred. q
