AT TRINITY EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
Rev. J. Eldred Browns Christmas Ser mon on The Son Declaring the Father.


 The Son Declaring the Father was the subject of the Christmas sermon by Archdeacon J. Eldred Brown at the service at the Trinity Episcopal church at 1030 o'clock Thursday forenoon The rector conducted morning prayer and holy communion and the programme of special music was finely rendered. There was also a special service at 8 o'clock in the morning at which time holy communion was administered. Both services were well attended.
 The Hardest Fact Man Faces.
 The rector wore a new beautifully embroidered surplice, the gift of a par iShioner. For the text of his sermon Rev. MT. Brown took the 18th verse of the first chapter of St John: No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotton Son who is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him." The fact, he said. that no man hath seen God at any time is perhaps the hardest fact man has ever had to face All through mans history it has been his supreme desire to see God, to have an ocular demonstration of his exist ence and person. It becomes a con- stant stumbling block to our ideas about Gcd that we cannot verify them, cannot raise them above the shadow of doubt by actual sight or sensible proofs. Much of our life in it's every day aspects and experiences has to rest upon probable evidence. We learn from experience that probability is the guide of life. The evidence for most of our practical actions is never all in, but we find that unless we act upon the evidence that is in, we shall never act at all Such is the evidence on which we base our convictions about God
 Not All Sight Is Ocular.
 Not all of our sight of things is ocular or sensible. On the contrary much of our sight is mental or spirit ual sight. Thus God is to be seen in a measure in nature. as a great power delig hting in mechanism, mathematical accuracy and beauty; in the conscience as one who stands for moral order and righteousness; in our experience of life as one who turns us aside from selfish or vicious purposes, constrains us to do things which our own selfish plans had never contemplated, shows us that we have been dealt with leniently, with long forbearance and with a de- gree of mercy which we never could have had any right to expect. Finally God is to be seen in history as a Power outside ourselves which makes for righteousness" In spite of all this evidence there is so much difficulty and

si+ions fret that the fragmentary skull and low
er law are those of one OF the race OF men VINO
made the rough but wellfaked flint implements
and secondly, that he was contemporary with the
other animals whose bones or teeth nave Deen
here found namely the mastodon and the merl-
dional" OF southern elephant, and therefore that
the man was of the Pliocene age 1t must now
ever be strictly asserted that we have as yet no
proof of the truth of such suppositions. The
human bones the flint Implements and the mas
todon and southern elephant teeth may be each
of a totally different age, and yet all brought
together by slow wearing away OF the solid
ground by water and the subsistence of some of
it's harder constituents into one final gravel de-
posit at this present day.
On the other hand, if we look at probabilities,
there is some reason to hold that the man (of
the jaw and skulD did not live later than the
makers of the rough flint implements, since no
flint implements of later type occur in this
gravel.
To say that he was contemporary with the
mastodon and Pliocene elephant, because their
fragmentary remains occurlsde by side with his.
is more than we are justified in doing. But 1t is
quite true that there is nothing to prove that
they were not coeva
The strongest argument against their being
coeval Is that the fragment of human skull and
the lower jaw were found each other and
therefore were probably imbedded for the first
time in the existing gravel and not washed out
of a previous deposit.
The Heidelberg Jaw is the most impressive OF
all the remains Of primitive yet discovered.
Though 1t is so extraordinarily powerful in
breadth and thickness and so thoroughly ape-lil1e
in the absence Of chin, yet the wellpreserved
teeth are thoroughly human and not apelike a:
all
The canine (marked in my drawing) Is as
small as in ourselves. There is no approach to
the great projecting dog teeth of the ape (see the
figure of the chimpanZee's jaw Yet the more
slender Sussex jaw. owing to its long union or
symphyss beginning as far back the letter
"g" in the word Fig) is more ape-like and less
human. 1t had almost certainly great CANNES
and large front teeth
1t is to be expected that other specimens will
be found in this same gravel when further ex-
plored which will throw more light on the gen
eral characteristics Of the to which the PIt-
down man belonged and on the question of the
geologic age to be assigned to them.
