ing at the Presbyterian church,
when a large crowd was pre-.

of Greenfield, the retiring Mod.
orator, who delivered a splendid
sermon. The ladies had pre-
viously decorated the church in
potted plants and ferns and
everything was appropriate to
show a hearty welcome to the
visitors.
The choir sang an anthem
which was rendered beautifully.
After scripture reading and a
prayer Rev. Cross introduced
Rev. Smidt who delivered his
lecture on, "The Responsibility
of the Church" He used the
miracle of the fishes in the
Bible to illustrate his point all
through the sermon. He feels
that the Salvation Army and
Y. M. C. A. are both doing work
that should be accomplished by
the church. If the church
would use its talents and wealth
and consecrate them, q great
deal more of good would be &C.
complished. After the sermon
Rev. Smidt constituted the
Presbytery with prayer after
which the roll was called and
members which had not been
assigned for entainment were
given places.
