worship. The church was presented with
two large, f1ne-toned bells. keyed in G and
B, and as the procession left the old church
the bells rang out loudly and joyously. AT
the steps the procession halted and, led by
the choir from the church at Orange, all
Joined in singing the Twenty-fourth psalm.
The entire service was conducted in the
German language, and consisted of the
majestic liturgy of the church and music
by the Los Angeles and Orange choirs al
ternately. The house was filled to its ut
most seating capacity all the vacant space
being occupied with extra seats. The ded-
ication sermon was preached by Rev. ]. NJ
Buehler, from the words: And heard a
great voice out of heaven, saying: Behold,
the tabernacle of God is with men, and he
will dwell with them, and they shall be his
people, and God himself shall be with them
and be their God"
This chapter said the speaker, gives
a vivid and realistic description of the
heavenly joys and glories. 1t describes the
New Jerusalem in all it's splendor, and the
perfect happiness of the blest. This verse
really contains the essence of that happi-
ness and glory, giving to us the communion
which the blessed enjoy with God. And,
with all other reasons why the services of
the day are gratifying to this congregation,
in reviewing the development of the church
in its present condition, is shown by the
erection of this building. The source of our
joy must be that these words apply not
only to the blest in heaven, but to the
church of God on earth. Why we are as
sured that we are justified in saying of this
building that 1t is the tabernacle of God
with man is, first, God here comes to us by
his own appointed means of grace; second,
the congregation are his people, gathered
here to enjoy communion with him.

USURY
Judge Utley Delivers an Address at
the Universalist Church

At the Universalist church Judge Utley
delivered an address on "Usury." Several
passages of scripture were quoted which
conclusively show that interest taking Is
condemned by holy writ; and citations were
made from the history Of the Christian
church which prove that during the first
seventeen centuries Of the Christian era
interest taking was prohibited by the can
on law Of the church.
The national debts of the world are
s27, 900. 100000. Private municipal and cor
porate debts of the world $50, 900 100, 900:
Total indeb: :edness, $177, 900 00O, 900; annual
interest at per cent over S. 900 O00, 900. The
annual interest for single year would pay
for all the land and make all the improve
ments of every kind within the corporate
limits Of the five great citieslNew York
Chicago, Philadelphia, Brooklyn and Bos-
ton-and leave sS.O0O0o0,0OO uuexpended.
The interest for a single year would pay
for the right of way and build and equip
every railroad and telegraphic system in
the United States.
The annual increase Of wealth in the
world does not exceed per cent, while the
interest paid for the use Of money Is at
least per cent. 1t necessarily follows that
if the interest paid for the use Of money
exceeds the increase Of wealth it is only
a question Of time when the money lende er
will absorb everything.

THE TRANSPORTATION
Rev. David Walk at the Church OF
Christ

Rev. David Walk at yesterdays sermon
IN the Church of Christ read Matt. xvii:1-S
inclusive, and announced as the subject
of his sermon 1.-The TRANSPORTATION" The
narrative of this wonderful event falls
naturally and logically into three divis-
ions-the TRANSPORTATION itself, the wit
nesses from heaven and earth, and the
voice out of the cloud.
The physical body of Jesus yelled the
ineffable splendor and glory of His divin-
ity and the TRANSPORTATION was but mo
mentary lifting Of that veil. Only week
previously His supreme divinity had been
confessed and He approved the terms of
the acknowledgment as a special revela-
ton from heaven; but Immediately there
after and for the first time, He shocked
and overwhelmed His disciples by the
proclamation of his sufferings and death.
To them it appeared utterly inexplicable
that the Christ, the Son of the living God,
could die. The TRANSPORTATION was there
fore necessary as further confirmation
of the truth of the confession and it is so
referred to subsequently by two of the
witnesses.
AS to the witnesses. The presence of
Moses and Elijah from the eternal world
meant several things. Moses had been
dead 1900 years and Elijah had expert
enced the quickening or change answering
to the death of the body 500 years previ-
ously; but here they stand talking with
Jesus and cognizant of His mission to this
world. The one represented the law, the
other the prophets. Their presence also
witnessed to the unbroken continuity of
life.
Relative to the voice out of the cloud:
The voice was from God, and the cloud
was the visible sign of His presence. AS
upon the occasion of His baptism, it was
the acknowledgment of the divine Sonship
of Jesus and His conservation thenceforth
as the only authoritative teacher and
