one of another" and his subject was
| christian fellowship lie said there was
no text in the Bible more plainly inspired.
| There is limit TO race deve opment in it.
| We find ourselves members of one another in
the necessities of life, business and art. We
should also fluid this true in religion. Two
extremes are always present in religion,
mysticism and legalism. Both of these pre-
vent the spirit of unity, though both are
attractive. Only as we combat them, can
we realize this fellowship.
A communion service followed and
brought the afternoon session to close.
