CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH MOTIFS. The Con-
gregational church pulpit was occupied Sunday
morning, Sept. l4th, by MIR. Harry Trust, pas
tor of the Sar d! point ard Stockton Congrega-
tional churches. Mr.. Trust read as scripture
lesson the eleventh chapter of the Gospel ac-
cordlng to john, be ginning at the seventh
verse. The text was clause from the forty
second verse OF the same chapter. Because of
the people standing by. said it, that they may
believe that Thou has sent Me-" The sermon

want to be alone or at best with few. Our
very symbols of mourning are a proof of the
disregard for those about US. Christ never
stood aloof from mankind, He was one of the
crowd and His mission was not to a few chosen
friends, it was to those down and out. "If We
love them that love you what thanks have ye?"
"God maketh his sun to shine upon the just
