 We expected it, and said as much, but the reality more than fulfilled our anticipation. We refer to the excellent sermon of Dr. Horton last Sunday. His text was, "Come unto me and I will giue you rest. Come unto me and ye shall find rest to your souls.n The speaker without parade or undue ve- hemence just lifted his audience by the grandeur of his thought. His tribute to Roosevelt as man who was follow ing the leading of God like the old prophets was thrilling. His appeal to men to pray sand cultivate the con sciousness of God was very effective. We hope Dr. Horton will come again soon.
