can say, My father is rich in houses
and lands. He holdeth the wealth of

"Oh! may we not this afternoon feel

at the very gate of heaven and God can
come and give us, o, such blessings if
we are only in readiness to accept them.
I am glad that Jesus came as work.

such men the way is opened up to the

Rev. A. K. Foster spoke on Christ
Dealing With Workingmen. He said:
who is the workingman? Now. Just
as soon as that word is mentioned diff
ferent persons have a different picture
in their minds. Some have the picture

plea this afternoon for the men who

ing in. All are working. There is room
for the toiler, for the lover and the poet.
Two thousand years ago there came a
stranger to us. Never did we hear a
man who came with such message as
this man. People came to hear him
from every quarter. Jesus never said a
word to make a man dependent. He
never said to man, Your condition is
low He said, Lift yourself higher.
Notice how many times he cured peo-
pie, not with a great noise, but SIM
ply.
Men have said that the reason why
Jesus was so wonderfully powerful was
because of His sympathy with men,
sympathy with their troubles. Then
all of these things combined together
gives us the great reason Jesus Christ
came with authority to speak to man.
I believe it is possible for man to do
the biggest work of life if he will. We
refuse to go up higher"

7. M, o. Il. PEOPLES, MEETING.

Held at Warner Hall Yesterday Afternoon
Addresses by Rev. Mr.. Hall and Rev.
Mr.. Foster.
A most interesting service was held
at Warner hall yesterday afternoon un-
der the auspices of the Central Y. M. C.
A. The singing of the Chromatic club
was especially pleasing and the offerto-
ry solo by Mr.. Frank e. Edgar was ex-
ceedingly well performed. Rev. A. M.
Hall spoke on the topic Christ as a
Workingman." Mr.. Hall spoke in part
as follows:
"Now, I desire to make two points
The first is this: Did it ever come to
your mind that when heaven wished to
give it's brightest blessing Christ did
not come into the world heralded by
flags and lannon's roar? He did not
come making His home in the palaces
or with kings, but He was born and
Graded in manger. I have often
wished that the curtains were swept
aside and we could see more OF the
early life of Christ. When He was come
to thirty years of age then 1t was tie
lived in the closest touch with human
ity. He was always found in readiness
to do work that was to be done. As
Stunning this condition of life, He placed
the seal of sacredness on it and made it
one of the noble ways of our life. One
of the best conditions Of life Is the
sweetness of toll.
Next point: A man should say, 1
am glad of what 1 am, am glad have
good health, I am glad 1 enjoy all the
blessings I can. But the thing for me
| is to look out for something better be-
yond, and it seems to me that Jesus
comes to the man, the workingman who
| is longing after something better, with
the sweet promise or statement that
that man is in that position where he
can go right on to the highest and best
| THAT man has the best peace who
| lives nearest to Jesus Christ. JOY,
whence cometh joy? What makes joy?
For whom do the Joy beams ring most
sweetly? Cannot the man working at
his anvil. at the bench. running the ma
chine in your factory-can he not hear
them in as sweet music as the man who
is engrossed in his business involving
millions? The toiier earning S1.25 per
day can be filed with the spirit and
