Fine MUSICAL Program During the
Day, and Decorations Were Beau
tful--Eloquent Address.

Gated yesterday In the presence Of i'm
mense congregations that filed the en-
tire house. In the evening. the congre.
cations of most Of the other Evangeli-
cal churches united with the Metho-
dists In listening to an eloquent ser.
mon from Rev Dr. Robert Mcintyre
Of Los Angeles The music Of the day
was very good The choir was aug
mented by the addition Of Willard
Squlres and Fred Graham, and Miss
berkhoel was choirmaster and soloist,
The church and Sunday school audi
torium are so arranged that the
preacher can stand near the junction OF
the two and be- heard In every part.
That was sufficiently tested yesterday,
and the acoustic properties were found
to be up to all anticipations. The ros-
trum was decorated with fine array
OF potted plants, and an American flag
was draped over the empty space where
the organ is to be placed.
MORNING SERMON.
The morning discourse was preached
by Bishop David II. Moore from He
brews XII 0, 10, 49, 80, 40. The bishop
said in part
Two scenes are familiar to rs all;
early In the morning, AT farmhouse
the men are astir TO tend the cattle. the
women are about household duties.

all. They have a real home. Out yon-
der in the hedge is prairie schooner.
The folks are hitching up for another
day of travel. All Is haste and all has
about it sense OF anxiety for what
may come. These people have no home.
but are travelling TO find "A home. Just
so clear Is the picture In our text We
are travelling on seeking Gods home,
and ere passing by those who are at
home In the world and satisfied with
its alurements
I'VE are seeking a home that hath
foundations. whose creator and builder
is God The patriarchs never mournod
or murmured. but cheerfully gave up
all for faith. They went out 10 do
Gods bidding, and are a sort Of para.

does not know us. In one sense We
are Of the world; We are diligent I'm

her siren song In our ears, but with
the shield If faith we do business on
a moral ground, az a means to an end,
We are agents of a great factor in the
worlds work, and that factor Is God.
We toll for greater resources--for Gods
kingdom. There is a God out Of sight
To whom our allegiance Is due. We
should declare our allegiance. our
speech often betrayeth us. There Is
a mOdesiy that is unreal The hypo-
critic and Pharisee will praise God from,

and pay righteous obligations. and So
come into Gods citizenship, that wa
may uplift humanity. TO do this we
must make r supreme pronunciation OF
all that stands In our way. The pa
triarchs could look back TO the good
things they left, but IN faith they
turned their faces 10 Gods way and
went onward. We hear the cry of the
world. but must close our hearts ana

God has builded for them a city
