Rev j. E. Butler of Lowell, who ex-
changed pulpits with Rev. A. Secord last
Sunday preached two very interesting
sermons to good audiences in the Congre-
gational church and many of his old friends
we're pleased to meet and listen to him
again.
Mr., Butler in the past year has in his
preaching taken broader and more lib
eral view of the teaching of the bible re-
garding christianity and the higher life as
taught in the word and sxemplified in the
life of Christ. In his sermons he touched
upon some Of those themes which suggest
ed thoughts considerably in advance Of
the doctrines taught in the past and which
are yet adhered to in some pulpts.
In his own church at Lowell his preach
ing has awakened great deal Of interest
and some Of his members at first thought
he was touching on forbidden ground and
were inclined to object but are now getting
reconciled to the advanced thought in
keeping with the progressive spirit Of TIE
age. They have got to liking him so we'll
and the kind Of theology he breaches as
to give him call for third year.
