Both the morning and evening

were largely attended. The pulpit
had been adorned with floral tributes
by Mrs. j. w Geissler and the word
welcome" had been formed in large
letters from the flowers.
In a quiet manner the new pastor
thanked the members for the inspir-
ing welcome they had given him.
Il felt an absolute stranger when
l came here" he said, "but when /
stepped up to the pulpit transformed
into a veritable Garden of Eden, by
loving attentiYeness, | was uplifted
and felt that ! could win the hearts
of those TO whom am to preach
the gospel henceforth."
Two torcefui sermons We're de-
livered at the morning and evening
services by the clergyman. and on
all sides he was praised and coll
graduated. One of those to welcome
the new pastor was Mrs Mary Nor
gan, mother of the Rev Dr. Nor
gan, who recently terminated a pas
torate of sixteen years at the Cen
trail Church. Mrs. Morgan an
nounced that although her son had
gone to New York she would remain
with the Central Church.
