AN INTERESTING DISCOURSE
BY REV. MR.. FISCHER JESTER
DAY FORENOON

The Subject was About the Various
Ways That the Time Allotted to Us
in Life is Used-There Are Two Great
CIasses-What We Should Pray For.
An interesting and eloquent sermon
was preached yesterday morning in the
Church of the Messiah by the pastor,
Rev. Theodore A. Fischer, before a
large and appreciative audience. Rev.
Mr.. Fischer based his remarks on the
words found in the ninetieth Psalm and
the twelfth verse: 80 teach us to num-
Der our days, that we may apply our
hearts unto wisdom"
The Psalmist in the preceding verses
of the chapter had dWelt upon the brew
ity of this earthly life and then prayed
that we might be taught to SO use the
time allotted us as to get the highest
and best results. Life at the longest is
short. But it is long enough to do good
and grow towards the light. If one
lives for kindly acts and noble purposes
and good deeds much can be accom-
plished land life will be conquered and
our crown won" Life is not measured
| by the flight of time" by days and
months and years
Methusaleh lived nearly thousand
years; the Lord Christ in a brief thirty
three years lived infinitely longer. Life
is a divine trust which comes from the
hands of the great Creator And with
the life is the great responsibility at
tached. What is it for? How shall we
spend it? The earthly part is prepare
tory to the heavenly. We are immortal
beings and have glorious destiny,
How are we living? Are we numbering
our days?
Are we considering the shortness of
this our earthly pilgrimage, and apply
ing our hearts to wisdom by improving
each day and hour? There are those
who from the force Of circumstances,
lead a kind Of a treadmill life. They
have to toll early and late. Much that
is attractive and beautiful is denied
them Still, there are left some things
which will bring to them measure OF
hope and peace. And to them we should
minister, by kindly acts and loving
words, which will in some measure
Tighten their burdens and help them on
their way.
There is another class who seem tc
think that time has been given them tc
be used without accountability or re-
sponsibility. This class do not live
they simply exist. Life in its true sig
niicance never appeals to them, and SC
they fritter away their time and accom-
plish nothing,
Let us all pray, as did the Psalmist
that we may be taught to number oul
days by applying our hearts to wisdom
and we shall do that which will b.
pleasing in the sight of our Heavenl!
Father and bring to us something
which is better than anything that thi
world can confer upon us,

MR.. SEYMOUR RESIGNS.
Tenders Resignation as Member of De-
tenders Monument Committee.

Tenders Resignation as Member of De-
tenders Monument Committee.
George D. Seymour, Of the firm OF
Seymour & Earle, who was a member
of the executive committee of the De-
tenders Monument association, makes
public the following letter which he has
sent to General E. E. Bradley, of the
commission.
Mr.. Seymour tenders his resignation
because he believes that the design sub
mitted by Mr.. Kelly is not the design,
in his opinion, which should have been
adopted. Mr.. Seymour gives few OF
his reasons in the following commune
cation:
General Edward E. Bradley, Chairman
of the Defenders Monument Asso-
| ciation:
Dear Sir-It is my duty to offer my
resignation as member of the execu-
tive committee of the Defenders Mon
ument association, as | am unable 10
endorse the accepted plans.
THE character Of the site, In my
opinion, calls for an architectural me-
mortal rather than work IN bronze, or
at least, a memorial lifted well into the
air so as to be cleared from the electric
service poles and wires about the plot
and to command the situation and form
a landmark.
But in case it was the sentiment OF
the committee and Of the public that
the memorial should take the form of a
work in bronze, placed near the level
of the street, my judgment is that MI
Paul Wayland Bartlett, in the fore
front OF living sculptors and a native
of the city of New Haven, should have
been asked to submit design. l have
recently had some correspondence, with
Mr.. Bartlett, who is now living in Paris
and he has assured me that he would
undertake a work for his native city
with great enthusiasm. However
plans, which do not at all commend
themselves to my judgment, having
been accepted, it is my duty, as above
stated, to retire forthwith from youl
committee.
II have sent a copy Of this letter tt
the secretary Of the committee and t
the local press.
Very respectfully yours,
George Dudley Seymour
