DAY IN THE CHURCHES
Sermon BY Rev. Peters on "The
Inseperability of Christ
And Church"

Services at the Maryland Avenue
Church were well attended Sunday.
In the evening the Rev. L. K. Peters
preached from the Songs of Solomon,
6 10 "Who is she that looketh forth
at themorning. pure as the moon, clear
as the sun and terrible as an army
with banners. He said:
both Christian and Jewish COM
mentators have agreed that the song
of Solomon speaks of the Messiah.
This song is a drama, composed of fine
literature and full of striking figures
The song may be used to describe the
mutual love and admiration and COM
munication that exist between Christ
and His bride, the church The figure
is a notable one. as God used it to
pronounce the marriage tie between
Christ and His church. We should all
realize that in uniting with the
church. we are taking vows as solemn
as those taken in the marriage cere-
mony.
1.-THE church is a company Of holy
persons called forth from the world and
united to Christ to worship the true
God according to His word. Christ
and his people are united in a sacred
tie. God has always had a church
from Adam down to the present day
Since the coming of Christ this church
has been growing and will grow until
the victory is won. Although many
OF our temporal blessings come through
the church, we hear people on all
sides saving Well. the hospital and
the schools and other things are doing
so much more good than is the church.
They never consider how these bless
ings came and fail to igive the honor
to the church. These temporal bless
ings never came before the Echurch, as
fruit cannot come before the tree.
1.-THE text further implies that the
same relationship exists between
Christ and His church as between the
groom and bride. They twain shall
be one flesh. When we reflect on the
church, we reflect on Christ. Let us
look at the picture OF the church as
presented in the text. As lovely as
the morning. We all know how beau
tiful sight is morning, so beautiful
that words cannot picture it. Pure
as the moon. We all know that the
moon borrows its light from the sun
and gives it forth again. Terrible as
an army with banners. An army
with banners is a gloriousysight and
tells of victory. So with the church.
We are marching onward to victory
and sin and Satanymust and shall fall.
John, on the isle of Patmos, caught
sight of this final victory. We see the
world around us getting better. Some
say that it is not, but we know it is.
Christ is going on to glorious victory.
God holds this world in the hollow of
his hand and is watching all events.
When the Gospel is preached to every
creature then the end shall come.
We should be up and doing our part. -

was too small for them, but assuredly
it was too loud and really enough TO

negro songs by the Irishman and coon,
were the only deviation from the play

WANT TO ENTER NAVY.
Three Japanese Arrive Here to
Study atWhe Naval
Academy.

Three young and ambitious. Japanese
students, anxious TO enter the naval
service of the United States, arrived
here yesterday and put themselves
under the instruction of one of the
preparatory schools of this city to
study for an examination to enter as
midshipmen at the Naval Academy.
The young Japs are Rinzo Miya, X.
Tanaka abd s. Kanaga, all originally
from Kobe, Japan. They have been
in this country studying the English
language and American customs since
1902, and are members of the Samaruai,
of the noble class of the japanese En-
pire. Mr.. Miya said that they desired
to study American marine methods,
and would probably remain in this
country for fifteen years longer. They
expect to secure entrance to the Naval
Academy, but failing in this, say
they will enter the navy or merchant
marine and study the details of the
service from the bottom up.
The young men have visited a num-
ber of large American cities during
their sojourn in this country, and
spent considerable time in New York
studying the inner working of the
navy ydIu tilSEe. All u bilcLH uhNd

ranks of the japanese Manchurian
army, and also in the Jap navy. In
appearance they are typically Japa-
nese, being short of stature. with the
alert, intelligent expression of the
educated class of their countrymen.
They are very reticent, and will say
but little regarding themselves or their
purposes in this country, beyond the
fact that they want to learn American
naval methods, considering them the
most avdanced of the maritime world.
