class attended in a body. The church
was crowded and the service which was
given in full choral form by the vested
choir. was very fine. The solos were
by Mrs. j. H. Wood and Mrs. j. E.

MIR. Brayfield chose as his text, the
words "A time to cast away stones,
and time to gather stones together
from the fifth verse of the third chapter
of Eccles. and Go up higher" from
the tenth verse of St. Luke XIV. After
a brief Interpretation of the text and
its general meaning, the speaker applied
it to the present day and the following
are extracts from his address,
During the period of your school
career you were being trained and
prepared to take your part in the great
battle Of life. Your graduation marks
the end Of the one and the commence
ment Of the other. You must cast away
every obstacle. you must clear away
everything which stands in the way and
hinders you from truly serving God.
'One great obstacle which lies in
the way of many is Incidence in religious
matters. They feel that he or she who
seeks to enter Gods service must be
active. earnest and jealous, but they
are not prepared to undertake any exer-
tion. Again, another obstacle is when
there exists some favorite sin, some evil
habit. One strong effort and we might
cut away that which holds us back.
He who gathers stones. must
stoop and stoop often. So it is with
trying to serve God. it requires that we
should enter on a season of patient
exertion. 1t is only by constant daily
efforts that we can build up the fabric
of the Christian life. stone by stone,
effort by effort. 81
e Il now come to the latter part Of
my text &c up hiat. God ssnd1
you all into the world as into. anothe,
school. very large school, indeed. Now
if we are to get on. the first thing we
must do is to climb. There are two
things to be remembered in climbing,
first to look up. and next not to turn
back.
but. my young friends, want to
speak about another kind of climbing,
that which God expects of us. Every
day God says to US all, Go up higher,
higher in thought and word and deed.
If everv day you take one step upwards
by conquerine on fault. by struggling
with one bad habit, by getting the
better of one selfish wish, you will get
nearer to God, and farther from all that
is low and mean and contemplate.
sThe troubles and sorrows of your
lives, the conquests over your TEN pers
and your faults. all these are steps on
the ladder and the hand of Jesus is ever
helping you upward to that life, where,
through all difficulties and beyond the
stars. you shall look on GOD and be
satisfied. e9l Y2@

one thing important to know being
that every part must be very strong

immense. The tackle block at the bot

others may be double, triple or even
quadruple. according to the power
needed to do the work. The large
clevis. hanging from the lever. can be
changed to different holes, as shown,
to give more or less power, as needed.
The tackle blocks should be iron or

much better than hemp rope. The
way to use the apparatus will readily
suggest itself from the picture.
