the yoke of the mother country, Geo.
Whitfield, like flaming herald, went
through those thirteen colonies preach
ing the great doctrine of the fathrer-
hood of God and the brotherhood of
man. Some one has said "Had it not
been for George Whitfield it is seri-
GUS question whether George Washing
ton would have had anything to do. "
The speaker called attention to the
christian ideals of Washington, Lin
coin, Mckinley, Roosevelt. 1t was
the power of christian faith that sent
our armies to Cuba and the Philip
pines. Whilst there was seeming
eclipse of faith in the 18th century,
caused by the writings of Voltaire and
Thos. Paine, and the example of such
patriot as Thos. Jefferson, the cloud
soon passed away, so strong is the
influence of Christianity on American
thought today that we are safe in say
ing no man can be president, U. S.
senator, governor, or mayor of any
considerable city who is a blatant
infdel. The supreme court of the
United States has formally declared
this is Christian nation. A declar-
alton amply confirmed by past history
and present conditions. The Church
has never been so popular nor so pros
porous as today. Never so many tens
of thousands of young men and women
enrolled under her banners as today
never so much money contributed to
christian education; never so many
secular schools and colleges that are
Christian in spirit
The speaker closed with congratula-
tory remarks addressed to the veterans
present, expressing the hope that that
Faith that was the glory of our ma
tional life might be with each of them
personal possession and that with
the dying day they might find light
in the evening time and be able tc
say Il have fought good fight,
have kept the faith; henceforth there
is laid up for me crown Of right
| eousness which the lord, the righteous
Judge will give unto me az that day.

The new Christian church will be
dedicated Lordsday June IL. This is
day which has long been looked
forward to by the disciples of this
congregation, having put forth great
efforts for the past year toward the ac-
complishment of their plans, they now
rejoice in their fulfillment.
Hon. z. 7. Sweeny, of Columbus, In
diana, who was to have dedicated the
building was asphyxiated a few days
ago while taking bath, the gas pipe
having burst. He was practically
dead when found, but by the heroic
work of physicians was resuscitated,

disappointment, but an admirable sup.
