Unitarian.

Unitarian services were held for the
first time yesterday morning in the
new Unity hall on Third South street
between Main and West Temple. II
was a day of beginnings, being the first
Sunday in the new year as we'll as the
frst in the new state. The new Unity
quartette, organized by Mrs Almy
| also took part for the first time in the
services, adding greatly to the effect
iYeness and harmony
The minister, Rev. Adelbert l.. Hud-
son chose for his theme "The New
Year" taking as his text Psalms xc-12,
so teach us to number our days that
we may apply our hearts unto wis
DOM"
He spoke of the fallacy of regarding
the present time as having a:iy dis
tlnet existence when in fact it IS merely
an imaginary dividing i.ne between
the past and future. All that we really
have in the so-called present is the
passing impulse which gives force and
direction to our onward course. And
because this is true men constantly
seek to fortify their lives by the i'm
pulse of fresh Beginnings. Hence the
new year has come to be a time in
which to form good resolutions for the
future.
Mr. Hudson then proceeded to speak
