Removal From Howard Avenue.

Mr.. Fishburn spoke of Mr.. Smalls res
ignation and his own installation; of the
removal of the church from Howard ave-
nue. to its present location on Columbia
road; of the dedication of the front portion
of the present ediice in 1898, and that of
the auditorium in 1904, when the sermon
was delivered by Prof. Stevens of Yale
Divinity School, and President Roosevelt
shared in the ceremony of conservation.
OF the work of the church Mr.. Fishburn
said: THAT in some respects our church
has been at fault, and has given evidences
of worldiness and weakness. no one of us
will deny; but on this anniversary day 1
would have you treat the twenty years
record as Ruskin treated Conston Noun
tain. A stone quarry made a great scar
on the slope of the mountain toward which
the authors window faced Instead of per-
hitting that to destroy the beauty of
the landscape, Ruskin hung a picture in
his window to conceal the scar on the
mountain-side. Thus he was enabled to
enjoy the beauty and to forget the ugli-
ness.
This, we may well believe, is the meth
cd of our Master. as He contemplates the
history of our church. He overlooks the
bad and sees the good. He takes account
of investments that have gone into this
work without tabulation in statistical or
financial statements"

the Philippines drag the latter country into
the problem and in order to look out for
her own interests she has to take notice

And all these facts go to show but one
thing: that the celestial empire has be-
come thorn in the worlds crown. What
ever way her relations to herself or to
some other nations are looked at, 1t will
be found that she is a growing country
a country in it's second childhood But it
pays for the more conservative and pa
ternal nations to be interested in her, be-
cause when the national youth has been
passed-well. then China will become such
powerful nation to surprise the sec
ond generation from this. as it is more
than likely that the final awakening will

they discarded obsolete customs and ideals.
Though in many places officials well over

their assistants or secretaries are the &C

their minds that their chiefs operate. From

Contrary to common public opinion, it is
destiny, but China is directing theirs. The
great nations are so apportioned on ques-
lions Chinese as to make the problem one
complete enigma. The nations divided
in these groups: United States, England
and Japan; Russia and Germany; China, by
itself and for itself or, possibly, as an
ally to Germany and Russia
The first three powers are not uncon-
cerned, as appears at first hand. Their
arms extend to and touch all parts in the
far east which certainly needs looking
after. Japan is today quietly sounding the
situation, in accord and with the help of
both Great Britain and the United States.

wishes and her future plans of action.

is bound to the eastern empire by virtue
