A Good Sermon.

, Those who attended services at the Presby.
terian church Sunday morning heard a very
entertaining and Instructive sermon preach.
ed by the pastor, Rev. ]. Lowrie Wilson.
He based his remarks on the request of
James and John when they aske ed the Savior
that he would permit them to sit on his right
and left hand In bis glory. The speaker con-
trasted the worlds ideal Of greatness with
Christ's ideal.
He illustrated the greatness of the world by
comparing 1t to a pyramid composed OF diff.
ferent strata. The first stratum Ia composed
OF the common people; the second, the land
owners: third. the office holders, etc., until
the apex which is the ideal of worldly great
ness is reached.
He then illustrated Christ's ideal by COM
parlng 1t to an inverted pyramid with Christ
himself as the apex and base upon which all
the other strata rest. The first stratum above
the base is composed Of ministers; the Sec
ond, officers in the church; third, the MEM
bers. and finally the world as the last stratum.
He called attention to the difference exist
ing between the law OF gravity of the mate
rial world and that Of the spiritual world.
The first pyramid is attracted by the world.
The second one is drawn heavenward.
1t was good sermon, highly appreciated
by the audience as shown by the close atten-
tion given the speaker.
