one came away congratulating him
self or herself on having heard such
pithy talks and having met such
clever friendly knights. Such agree

On Sunday afternoon the happy
gathering eliminated with an address
by Prof. Rembert, grand chancellor
commander of the grand domain Of
South Carolina and professor Of
Greek in Woford college.
This gentleman whose fame as g
speaker had been noised abroad, was
introduced by Mr.. A. Fl. Kohn, Prof.
Rembert talked long and earnestly on
the benefits, ideals, intentions, aims
and results of fraternal organizations
and endeavored to overcome any
prejudice that might be existing
against them He said that the great
work of fraternities and denomina-
tons is to unity, modify and purify
society and that this grand order,
whose name even is suggestive.
stands for the highest and best In
every phase Of life, and in, all the
relations of mankind and first, las-,
and always for the fatherhood Of God
and the brotherhood Of man. =
Dozens of knights. from nearby
towns came in for these meetings
and enjoyed them, and went away
they came. This is the first visit Of
feeling that It was good for them that
this convention as a whole, and as In
dividua1s-in some cases-but we
trust that this same honor will be
ours again in a time not so far aWay
over the distant hills Of the future.
The dedicatory service at Grace
church yesterday morning was at-
tended by a large. and, as will be seen
later, enthusiastic congregation. Ey-
ely members face bore testimony to
the just pride and the sweet satis-
faction all entertain when we enter
or contemplate the new church which
all visitors delight to compliment
The full choir rendered appropriate
music in a very proper and accepsa-
BILE way that would have reflected
credit on city choir. g=
DR.. Scherer's sermon was magni-
fcent picture of the church from
Biblical, Old Testament viewpoint.
His thoughts were clear cut, we'll
rounded and appreciated. He COM
pared the Christian, the church to the
free, the children of promise through 7
Sarah, and the rest Of the world to
The children Of Hagar. His whole
discourse was most profound and
pertinent to this occasion.
After the sermon Rev. Mr. Freed
arose and said it gave eynod pleasure
to dedicate and receive this, one OF
the most beautiful churches in the
State, but that as there still hung
over the church debt Of $500 he pro-
posed to receive pledges for the
amount before the church could be
properly consecrated.' In very short
time not only the s500f1 but $725 we're
easily and cheerfully given The, de-
dicatory services proper were then
begun and impressed every one with
it's beauty, thought and import. At .
the close of this the entire congrega-
ton rose and with one heart and !
voice united in singing Luther's most
precious hymn: ...... .: .-
my church, my church, my dear old
church,
My fathers and my own >
On prophets and apostles built
And Christ the corner stone.'
Rev. Mr.. Freed greatly edited tie
large Sunday evening congregation
with a most thoughtful, thought Dro-
ducing sermon relative to opeo!tG-
mites and the embracing and the
making the most Of them.
