must be strengthened in the center of his being. The apostle wanted the central spot of mans being to be thrill ed with light even as the center of the universe thrills with life-the life of God. You cannot comprehend the love of Christ, unless you are composed of love. If you are rooted and builded in love you may be strong enough to ap- prehend the love of Christ The love of Christ lies out beyond all possibility of knowledge. To such persons as re- spond to His love God Is giving graces constantly and bye and bye he has giv- en so abundantly of His own character that a man is filled with the love of God.
 What are we in this world for if not to glow in the likeness of God while our God Is trying to make men and women in His own image? Beyond the reach of an inspired petition or the limits of an inspired imagination lie yet other reserves of power and blessing in God.
 The evening service was in charge of the Bible school society. It was rally day for the Sunday school, and appro- priate exercises were held.

The fire had at that time gained a good start, and it was at first thought that the en- tire building would be destroyed, but the blaze was gotten under control be- fore the building had been damaged to that extent.

LAST SERMONIN CALVARY BAPTIST
 CHURCH YESTERDA r MORNING.

Three New Members Received by Bap-
 tism-Text From Epheslans Iii, l4-2I,-
 Love of God Beyond the Limits of
 knowledgo-RaIIy Day Services in the
 Evening.
 The Rev E. M. Poteat preached his farewell sermon at the Calvary Baptist church yesterday morning. There was a large congregation present, Three new members were received by bap- tism. The following inscription was inscribed on the choir loft: "1SSS-Im- manuel-God is With Us-1S9S" The church was decorated with green and red autumnal foliage. MT. Poteat preached very short sermon saying that his text, Ephesians iii, 14-21, ex- pressed what he wanted to say better than he could possibly do. It is as fol- lows:
 For this cause I bow my knees un- to the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory to be strengthened with might by His spirit in the inner man, that Christ might dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to com prehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length and depth and height; and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, until Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus through out all ages, held without end. Amen"
 Rev. MT. Poteat said in part: Paul had caught from His master the great secret of the fatherhood of God, so that in praying he is not approaching some terrible majesty, but is as a child com ing to his father. The apostle under stood that all externality of man was not of the essence of religion and that if man was to be Cody man he

MOCK TRIAL AT Y. M. c. A.

Held Last Night and Largely Attended
 The mock trial at the Y. M. c. A. last evening was attended by a. large number ofthe members and their lady friends. The proceedings throughout were thoroughly enjoyed. F. B. Holt was the cu1prit, accused of stealing a pocket penknife belonging to w. G. Lotze, the general secretary. MT. Lotze might be accused of extravaganza since the knife was valued in the sum- mons at $1O.29. The accused was summoned to appear in court before Judge L. W. Cleaveland. The selection of the jury occupied the usual time and produced the usual objections and pro- longed wranging of the lawyers. The attorneys for the prosecution were Messrs. F. c. Downs and H. W. Smith, while J. c. Gallagher, Fred Bostwick and G. M. Snyder appeared for the de- fense. The jury as finally selected consisted of Dwight Thomas, foreman, Dan Berger, William Konitz, J. F. Rocks. B. F. Hines, Cliff Cooke, M. C. Fausett, R. c. Watson, W. c. Johnston, P. w. Chapman, D. w. Jeffcott and R. G. Munger.
 The examination of the witnesses and the cross questioning were full of bril- liant points and the arguments of the lawyers in closing their case were fun ny, if nothing else. The jury soon re- turned from it's deliberations and brought in a verdict of Not guilty Their reason for such a verdict was a fitting close to the trial. They claim ed that the attorneys for the prosecu- tion had made a deal between them selves and therefore the accused was innocent.
