FAST DAY EXERCISES.
4 Notable and Eloquent Sermon by Rev. C.
A. Hayden.

Those who attended services Thursday
m orning at the Winthrop Street Univer-
salist church, heard one of the best and
most eloquent sermons ever delivered in
this city and those who remained away
are the losers. The audience was large
for the occasion but not what it should
have been. A double quartet under the
direction of Mr.. johnson furnished choice
music, and this alone would have well
compensated for going to church.
The exercises were as follows:
Anthem, BY the choir
invocation, Rev. Mr.. Hayes
2cIlp.ure Lesson, Rev. MIR. Williamson
Voluntary, The Cboir r
prayer, Rev. Mr.. Wyman
sermon, Rev. Mr.. Hayden
Hymn.
behedictlon, Rev. Mr.. Cummings
Mr.. Hayden took for his text portion
OF the tenth verse of the sixty second
chapter of Isaiah Lift up a standard for
the people. Rapidly the field was
scanned and as each point was touched
upon. high standard was urged. This
government founded by the strength of
noble manhood is to be preserved only by
giving full emphasis to Christian charac-
ter Citizenship must be made to mean
more than simply few months or few
years residence. The standard must be
raised that men may come to realize
something of what this country stands for.
Not alone in its marvellous achievements
in science or man ufacture, not in great
cities or immense industries are we to find
the strength of the nation but in the
homes and these must speak for that high
standard Of citizenship which alone can
insure good government. The standard
of education received attention, the
preacher emphasizing the Importance of
moral discipline and instruction as well
as mental. Temperance was presented
and activity urged upon the individual
that more healthy public sentiment
may be aroused and maintained. The
ravages of the tobacco habit and especial
ly the terrible results following the dead
ly cigarette were depicted, the fathers and
mothers being urged to set high stan
dard before the young and be watchful
that it Is maintained Social purity was
considered and standard of public SEN
timcnt indicated which would check the
great evil which is sapping the real life
of the home
Materialism with it's sophistries and
agnosticism with its platitudes We're Sc
verely criticised while the substantial
verities of faith and right living were
brought out in strong colors. 1t was here
that Mr. Hayden showed his power as a
preacher, making plea for truth, homes
ty, faith and righteousness. not soon to
be forgotten. This was the standard
which had stood the test of almost two
thousand years and the prophecy was
made that during the next fifty years
there would come the greatest awakening
along the line of vital Christianity which
the world has ever seen, mot in my
church or yours" said the preacher. but
in all the churches and all the lands, the
spirit of Christ is to come in power and
touch the hearts of men bringing them
to the one standard which can endure,
that given us in the life of Jesus Of Naza
