 rday Marriage The topic of the
 toresting discourse was "The We'd

 "One of the most important and
 lcred events to the Jewish people
 as the marriage. There were elab-
 rate preparations, and there was no xcuso for indifference on the part of
 tests. Even a funeral had to give lace to marriage, God pronounc-
 l the blessing over the cup at the yodding of Adam and Eve. Michael md Gabriel acted as groomsnlen, and
 ae angelic choir sang the wedding
 gmn. Evory man was bound to rise md follow in the wedding procession. \ Agrippa did this
 "One of Jesus first public acts was to attend wedding. We want to learn some lessons this day from this incident. The true ideal of life in iolves wedding and a home. Mar .iage is ordained of God and is to be honorable among all men. Jesus was not married, but He sanctioned it. Ascetism, monasticism and celebacy are not of Cod Enforced single blesscdness is not of God, but of Isciish civilization.
 "A true marriage is the perfection of friendship. The homes of a coun- try make it what it Is. The center of power for building tip community in virtue, religion and prosperity lies. In the homes.
 Jesus should be bidden to every marriage and into every home. It is a familiar axion, Begin right and you will end right The marriage rela- | ton should begin and be continued with Jesus lie should be the abid- | ing guest Philip Henry's usual con- graduation was, I wish you all holi- ness and then |, know you will have happiness It depends so much up- on the way young people start in a marriage career Human nature is a dangerous product and we all try to handle it. We are all chemists, and the chemistry of souls begins with marriage in q delicate way. Chlorine i and sodium give common salt. But I put sodium with some other elements I and you have an explosion. A wife's chemistry will produce either the salt that preserves or the explosive that destroys. The husbands winsome manner when quoting prices will do splendid work at home instead of making words It is so essential that the Christ-lilke spirit be present and the marriage and home life will ever prove a blessing.
 Jesus should have place in our social life. Jesus went to the we'd
 ding, the supper and to the natonal
 feasts. The Christian Teligion is a
 religion of happiness and joy Jesus
 loves to have us happy, and lie ap-
 proves of pure pleasures. The diff
 culty to-day is that many rush i9tc
 pleasure, es many do into marriag>
 without any thought of Jesus.
 "The best of life's wine Is at the Hast of the feast Jesus gives His best
 things last. The farther we go witt
 Him the greater the good and tht
 deeper the joy, Sorrow mingles witt
 ioy. It is bitter-sweet. He gives thu
 climax in the eternal life. Here joy i : abiding. It. is for us to hear the mu Z sic of heaven. Friends, join you 3 voices with theirs through life's jour
 nev. and the best of the wine vii , come at the end of the feast" I It was just bit lively among tn l politicians in the Fair Haven ward I yesterday. This was particularly no
