Rev. Herbert 5. Bigelow, Of
Cincinnati was the speaker and
closed with the following prayer:
"Oh Thou Creator Of all things
aud Of all life. teach us We pray
thee to recognize the real nature
OF property and its relation to
human life. As property would
have no value without men, forbid
that We should be continually mis-
taking the shadow for the sub
stance. Since property is created
and made available by the labor Of
human beings, help us to strive
nightly sgainst that materialism
which makes wealth OF more &C.
count than men. Save the Great
ors Of wealth from being domi-
mated BY what they themselves
have created; save tho masters
from idolatry and the workers
from slavery. Cleanse our souls
from the love Of getting something
for nothing. Help us TO abomi.
