During the fire, while Captain Web
ster with five flremen were near the top
of ladder which stood on shed adj
joining the burning structure, the hose
burst just below the nozzle, throwing
the full force Of the stream against the
ladder, and the ladder began to move
sideways and was about to topple over,
carrying the t1remen with 1t for forty
foot drop into the yard below Cap
tain Webster, with great presence of
mind, holding the nozzle at the top Of
the ladder, kept his wits, and as the
ladder began to slide caught the iron
shutter of the nearest window, and
twisting his legs about the sides of the
ladder held it with the top of it in mid
air long enough to let the other five
men slide to the roof Of the shed below.
Clouds of smoke burst from the win
dow concealing him from the view of
those on the ground, but Assistant
Chief Perkins saw his dangerous posi-
ton and rushing to the ladder with one
of the long hooks, braced it long enough
for Captain Webster to reach the shed
roof. 1t was fast piece of work and
a narrow escape. A new length of hose
was put in and after the shutters were
wrenhced open the stock was deluged
with water.

Gods Goodness was the. subject of
the sermon by Rev Charles G. Smith
at the Grand Avenue Baptist church
yesterday morning, and with thoughts
relating particularly to the approach
ing national anniversary. His text
was, THE goodness of God leadeth thee
to repentance" In part, he spoke as
follows:
I'm the imperial city of Rome, situ-
ated upon her seven hills and by the
banks of the deep-Aowing Tiber, In the
middle of the first century, Christian
church had been formed They had
achieved a measure of success and had
become an influential factor in the city
This was matter for great thankfulness
and holy joy, but not for pride and
boasting. In this passage st. Paul ae~
knowledges their prosperity and bids
them behold in it pathway leading
not to the arena or forum, but TO the
penitent bench. The goodness Of God,
he says, woos you to cody sorrow
that you are so utterly unworth Of His
eternal goodness.
Next Wednesday is the anniversary
of the birth of this republic. 1t will be
duly celebrated by all loyal Americans
and doubtless by all who have sought
refuge and found home here, who
have come from all parts OF the globe
This is as it should be, but think we
will all do well to let such thoughts as
these fructify in our hearts on that day
wonder at Gods goodness to us as
nation and deep sorrow that we are
stin and have been so undeserving Of
the least of His bounteous mercies' The
most superficial reader Of this nations
history cannot fail to see how signally
she has been blessed ever since that
memorable day when those faithful ana
fearless men banded themselves togeth-
Of and formed this commonwealth and
framed this constitution, which is the
fairest and most equitable Of any, /
think, in the wide world. Prosperity
and success are written on every page
of our history. Is this because of
chance or fortune, or is 1t Of man mere
ly? cannot think so. ! believe 1t is
of God, who ruleth forver in the armies
of heaven and over the kings and rulers
and peoples of the earth.
But this goodness of God has not led
the majority Of Americans to repent
ance. but rather, it would seem, to in
difference and neglect of Him and His
claims upon us, eliminating in open de-
fiance Of Him and His laws, in ungodly
pursuits and in wickedness in high
nlaces. These things ought not to be;
thev lead to ruin. Let us make the
Glorious Fourth not only day of hap
niness, but equally day Of true hui
initiation, and may the unboundeh
blessing Of God on this nation lead us
all TO greater searching of heart ana TO
increasing endeavor to make this coun-
try not merely prosperous, but true and
righteous altogether.
At the close of the sermon four per-
SONS were added to the membership OF
the church.

| July 7, 1887. He was also hymn writ
er and preacher. We are using his
hymns and music in our service to-day.
But he will always be remembered as
the hero of he spiritual awakening
among the French-speaking churches Of
Europe.
( Two Influences were powerful at the
beginning of the nineteenth century
the writings of Voltaire and other skep-
tics, and a dead orthodoxy in the
churches. Malan was ordained in 1910
and preached according to the current
thought Of the time. There was an in
difference to the Bible, belief in sal
walton by works and strong current
of worldiness. In 1917 Malan came I'M
der the influence of the new movement
and experienced q new faith as ex-
pressed in the words 'Throagh grace

life and preaching, a separation from
the state church, the erection of the
church of the testimony on his own
property at Pro Boni and the glorious
religious awakening in Geneva. His
life We filled with persecution and con-
troversy 1t witnessed great results in
France, Germany, Holland and Eng
land. The queen of Holland was his
friend and he had friends in America.
He lived to a ripe old age and did
great work.
Three features characterized his life
and work-a personal experience of sal
walton, an increased interest in Bible
study. and life filled with peace and
satisfaction. The fundamental princi-
pie was faith in Christ as the only and
all-srfTicient ground of salvation. A
Christian experience based thus is the
only sure and satisfactory one Let
each one Of us see to it that we possess
it. For, being justified by faith, We
have peace with God through our Lord
Jesus Christ.
