Rev. Thomas E Bartlett delivered a
powerful sermon at the morning service
at the Baptist church yesterday taking as
his text a part OF the 42d verse of the
first chapter Of John, "and he brought
him to Jesus" He said the thought was
one to inspire us In our Christian life,
this action OF Andrew bringing his broth
er Simon Peter to the Master, He said Je-
sus was then only beginning the work Of
making His kingdom and He recognized
the need of men. He got II men you will
remember and sent them out to bring
others In.
This Is one place In the Bible that shows
that the gospel is adapted TO all and not
made for women and children OF tender
years az some would have us believe.
1T ls adapted to the strongest and
hardest TO win. Jesus seeks the souls OF
the grown men OF the village, OF the
whole fire department.
THE world cannot get along without
Christianity Moses made his choice
when he had reached the age OF forty
years, so you need not feel backward in
taking a stand even though you are no
longer youthful
mo one will think you are acting hasti-
ly or inconsiderately IL you move now.
There will be no need OF you to leave

interfere with your daily life"
Tho pastor then spoke OF ways the peo-
pie OF the congregation could do good and
stated that ''If you bad a good remedy
for some illness or disease you would
tell your friends about IL: 1t should be
the same with christianity.
You say / can't talk out In meeting or
teach a class but go out for the Lords
sake and get in somebody who can do
something
You don't hear a great deal about the
man who won over Moody but you have

AT the close OF the service Prof. r. p
Stout the voted Philadelphia Gospel
singer: who had been singing for the
prisoners at the Cranston jail, came in
ard sang In his own inimitable way two
OF his songs, one being Save one" He
also conducted service for the children
at the Sunday school and sang the well
known favorite selection Tell Mother I'll
be There"
At 3 D. m Prof. Stout gave his gospel
song service TO a large congregation and
his unusual talents were shown TO the
best advantage. His methods are unique
in that his enunclation and pronuncia-
tion are very clean and the sentiments
and meanings OF the verses are brought
out with telling effect. and he assumes
the attitude OF a preacher rather than a
singer
