 Rev. Dr. Sanford preached an eXcel- lent sermon, which was listened to with much interest by the large congregation
 The text was as follows: St. John 3:14: ",To the soldiers He said: Do vio- lence to no one, neither accuse any falsely" In the course of his sermon he said:
 You, gentlemen of the G. A. R., main tained these same principles of right eousness and justice in the civil war. You fought not for conquest, not for glory, not for mere lust of battle, nor for trade, but for high principles and grand ideals. Your children gave them selves and their young lives for the same principles and ideals. His re- vealed truth and principles which con- form is what has made our nation what it is and the power that is in the world Whether this grandeur shall or shall not continue depends, like many other things we enjoy, upon ourselves and the use is made of opportunities. But if we think of the great life which the opening of this coming twentieth century ush- CTS into, we have need to keep our heads clear and our hands clean. We need to lay to heart the warning we have heard in the words of the lesson we read in this evenings services addressed by God to a people He had blessed as large 1y with worldly good things and near intimations of His power Say not my own might and the power of my hands have got me these good things.
 "Godliness is true patriotism. Let us never forget that the man who best loves and serves God is the best patriot. Let 11s try how best to impress this on the bows and girls who are growing up 10 take our places in the world. Then shall we have no cause to fear for our coun- trv or it's future. We should be sure that the old flag that has been unfurled in no unworthy cause will not be dis bonored, and ever increasing strength among the nations, our invincibility in war will be pledge for the preserva- lion of our country and the promotion of nrosnerity. The great republic Warreth 1,non no nation save in the cause of God, which in what justice bids and the cause of humanity demands right tri- umphs and justice prevails. And al tho1gh she does not stand as political Don Ouixote hunting wind mills, yet when duty calls there she spareth not until right triumphs and justice pre- yails.''
