BISHOP SPALDINGS ADDRESS.
Bishop spalding and Dean Eddie
then unveiled the window together and
the bishop offered prayer I'm thanks for
the completion of this work The bish-
op then preached from Acts xix: Is;
And Immediately there fell from his
eyes as it had been scales, and he re-
ceiyed sightand forthwith he arose and
was baptized Bishop Spalding then
said In part: 1T seems to me that no
more appropriate memorial could be
given TO a man who lived as one Of
Gods Saints that this window and
through 1t the light OF Gods sunshine
comes and makes II beautiful There
was always the difficulty to determine
how much OF the light came from the
WindOW-man's personality, and how
much Of the light was merely trans
mlttcd coming from without. When
this building Is illuminated by It's own
light that window win be duh and dead
but 1t is only when the light from God 8
sunshine outside comes streaming
through II that we see Its beauty and
We learn its lessons
There are four great words In the
Bible which are especially spoken OF
with reference 70 the character OF the
Saints St Paul spoke Of the know
ledge ana purity OF the saints, and st
John referred 10 the patience and right
eousness Of the saints"
BLINDED By PREJUDICE.
St. Paul rightly says that we eeD
through glass darkly, and Prof
James OF Harvard university agree.
with st. Paul when he says that a mar
is very mull like a building and TN,
windows through which the light
streams, and IL the windows were not
darkened by our prejudices and ON
sins the light would come through bet
ter and I'VE would see the knowledge oi
the Saints as the knowledge that comes
from God and comes from without just
as the light comes through the window
The patience referred to I'm the New
Testament means literally standing un-
der the never hinching; that was tn.
patience of the Saints. Stand under tht
burden bravely and patiently and IN
time you will win out because lie Is
the victory
BISHOP LEONARDS WORK.
THE righteousness OF the Saints
summed II all up and every man can
have the power for righteousness with
In him which will help him TO his own
righteousness. ! think it might have
been more appropriate II today one
that lived and worked with the late
bishop should have spoken TO you. For
nearly a year have been going up and
down this great district and trying To-
follow in his steps and have been i'm
pressed as men told me about him.
have been more and more impressed
with the faithfulness with which he
spread the knowledge OF God. with the
purity and the cleanness Of his life, noe
a breath ever to the contrary, and with
the patience with which he stood under
the great burden without complaining
Bishop futile told me that when Il was
proposed TO make Western Colorado a
part of this great district, already more
than a man could well attend to, II
Bishop Leonard had stood up in the
house of bishops ana protested il might
have been given to another man, hut
as Bishop futile said. that was not his
way. He said: II the church wants
me 10 try ! will try TO do the best
can and they gave him the largest dis.
trict In the United States. ! think we
may be glad that this window remains
TO point the way and try and follow in
the footsteps OF his Master and be-
righteous men and take the lesson to
heart, each and ALL
UNITARIAN SERVICE.
"Wil the World Ever Have Uni,
versal Religion" was the topic Of Rev.
l rank ray EuQy IN tNe JNltNrUin
church yesterday morning He said IN
part,
In the past men tried to spread re-
liglon by force, but always failed to
win permanent victories, Today the
reliance is on dominating Civilizations
and tho size Of missionary funds But
ln neither way will a universal church
come into being, The reason is found I'm
the varieties of human character. No
one church can appeal equally well 10
those who are Of aesthetic and artistic
sensibilities. to the emotionalist, 10 the
nationalist 10 the matter-of fact man
Of the world, and to the ldeallst. There
can never be a universal church be-
cause Il can never appeal 10 all men
without becoming unveiled In a thou
sand Inconsistencies.
ION the other hand. religion under
meath It's manifold expressions Is the
same always and everywhere. And this
Is due 10 the fact OF the unity Of hu-
man nature. There are differences
enough between races and among the
people Of the same civilizations TO frus.
