WEEK OF PRAYER
BEGUN.
Seven Days Services in the
Wayne St. Reformed
Opened Auspici-

CHURCH HANDSOMELY REHOYOTED
Excellent Programme of
Music and Sermons by
the Pastor Rev. j.
Alex. Brown.
CHURCH HANDSOMELY REHOVOTED

Notwithstanding the. storm of yester-
day morning the auditorium of the re-
Gently redecorated Wayne street Reform
ed Church was comfortably filled at the
beginning of series of services which
are to last all the week At the evening
services the church was crowded.
The church has undergone extensive
repairs, renovation and redecorations, at
a cost of about three thousand dollars.
Memorial windows of beautiful design
and colors soften the light of the interior,
and the lighting arrangements for even
ing services have been perfected by the
Introduction of lights on the side walls.
The church had up to yesterday been
closed since August l, during which time
the congregation worshipped in the lee
ture room. which had previously been en-
tirely overhauled and refurnished by the
Christian Endeavor Society at cost of
$400.
Yesterday the pulpit of the main audi
torium was adorned with palms and
other winter plants by the Ladies' Guild.
The music was under the direction of
Charles FL. Clark, assisted by Miss s. S.
Paddock, as erganist. 1t included the
anthems "Give Thanks Unto the Lord"
'Praised in Zion, "Divine Lullaby" and
a selo by Miss Clark.
The Rev. ]. Alex. Brown, pastor of
the church preached an eloquent sermon
ON Worship and Work" He discussed
the enthusiasm and unity with which the
rece2t work of renovation had been car
ried on and emphasized the fact that the
same spirit of united worship should be
displayed and could be better developed
under the better condition of church prop
erty. elm the evening the Rev. Browns
theme was: 'sWhat church is the Right
Dne?' He declared that the denomin-
Rtionalism is not the church and that
creeds do not constitute a church; but
that personal characteristics inspired by
the Spirit are the real constituents, de-
nomina tionalism being but the exterior
clothing to the true life within and
creeds the letter of the law. He said that
the Christian church is household of
faith, and not seminary of theological
instruction.
Tonight the mutual tablet in memory
of the Rev. DIR. Van Cleef, will be un-
veiled by Pastor Brown, who will also
make acknowledgment of the memorial
windows. There will be addresses by the
Rev. Robert K. Wick, former pasror,
but now of Jamaica, Long Island, and
Rev. DR.. Cornelius Brett, of the Bergen
Reformed Church. An excellent musical
programme win be rendered.
The full programme of EXERCISES for
the week were published in Saturdays
s'News."
The church was built in 1S4S. The
cyclone of two years ago put the finish
ing touches on the demoralized condition
of the interior, rendering the recent inn
provements absolutely necessary.
