DIR. PENFIELD FIXES
4. FIRST SERMON HERE

The Rev, Maurice Penreld Fixes. Of
Baltimore, arrived yesterday afternoon
and last night preached his first SER
mon at the Grace-street Baptist Church
There was a large audience present, and
they were thrilled BY the sermon, His
theme was: '.The Best Thing IN the
Word-the Love Of God. !" which he pre-.
scnted In most mastery and eloquent
manner. He discussed the breadth Of
Gods love. which he took to indicate Its
territorial extent; ; Its length, which. he
said. suggested Its time measurement; its
depth, which meant the divine condecen.
sion to the lowest human need, and Its
height, which indicated the great glory
to which the soul Is lifted UP BY Gods
redeeming love,
Dr.. Fikes sermon could not be reported
IN It's elouuence, Its enthusiasm. Its word
painting and its pathos. 81
6''Love,.' he said. Twill be the key-word
OF the meetings" No call was made for
any Demonstration Of interest, but the
congregation was greatly moved. There
will be meetings at the church, conduct
ed by Dr. Filkes at 4 O'clock this after
noon and at 5 o clock this evening, to
which everybody will be welcome,

Fine Sermon by the Pastor Of

Morning,

At tho Grove Avenue Baptist Church
Sunday morning, Dr.. j. B. Hawthorne
preached to large congregation on the
text, Wherever5 the body is the eagles
will be gathered together" Quite a num-
Der OF the members of the Legislature
were present. Speaking OF government
and nations, Dr.. Hawthorne said:
1.-THE life Of q nation Is righteousness.
by Righteousness in the conduct OF a ma
ton, I do not mean ugiobs or SPIRITUAL.
ty In the usual sense Of those terms, but
honest purpose, honest speech. honest
laws ana fair dealing with sister nations
The nation characterized by such right
eousness will live. It's subjects will stand
by It. uphold It's ensign and maintain the
dignity, majesty and Independence in
every crisis Of its history. But when
1t becomes unmindful or careless OF the
distinction between right and wrong;
when 1t legislates in the interest OF vice
and crime. and when those who are
charged with administration OF It's gov
crnment can be subsidized with the none
Of rich and oppressive combinations OF
men \; when It turns a deaf ear to Cod
loving and virtue-l0ving wives mothers
and daughters who plead for the protec-
lions Of their homes and affairs; when It
takes counsel Of goddess corporations and

harlots and when 1t extends its COM
merce and dominion by unjust invasion
and unholy conquests It becomes a dead
nation, and destruction stands waiting
at Its door. Ten thousand vultures will
hover over 1t and scream with impatient
desire to devour It. There will be In
ternal strifes; class will rise against class,
interest against interest, institution
against institution; the rich will desp!se
the poor and the poor will hate the rich;
crime. greed, ambition, maddening want
and fierce despair will join8together in
