of Exercises.

The approaching celebration by the
congregation of the Church of the Good
Shepherd in this city of the twenty
fifth anniversary of the founding of the
parish, will be an event of far more
than ordinary interest.
The ministers who have served the
congregation are all living and are all
expected to be present and preach on
that occasion. One of the most interest
ing features of the celebration will be
the laying of the corner stone of the
new church, at l. o'clock on Monday,
the 18th of February.
The work on the foundation, which
has been delayed by bad weather, will
have progressed sufficiently by that time
for the corner stone to be laid
Another feature connected with the
services will be the free-will Offering Of
silver at the service on Sunday.
Below is printed an outline of the ser
