Sermon in Keeping With Closing of
the Year Delivered by the
Rev Mr.. Simpkin.

III n sermon last evening In keeping
with the closing Of the year, the Rev. Pc
ter A. Simpllin preached on This Littl
Life" at Phillips Congregational church
The text Of the evening was the Word
from the Doth Psalm. 1--WE bring on
years to an end as sigh" Mr., SimPltll
said in part:
It is OF Importance that we watch
the calendar, that we use the reed
of the years, not because years arc
vital, but that our possession OF them
is limited. because the remembrance
OF that fact Is the more apt to in
fiuence us in making our fast flying
years worthy in service, OF value and
gladness for remembrance
Measured by our brief stay. our
relative weakness, the inexorable
compulsion OF our departure from

played. arc all temptations to en-
phasize the llttleness Of life.

space for the sense Of permanenoe to
make us .prideful for we too share

ton TO the present order is con-
cerned,
Wise is he who keeps his heart re-
minded and his brain controlled in

For despite the certitude OF the
souls continuance in another state,
this remains true. that in the school
of earth's days we have but so brief
space in which to do the days work.
and but once in which to do it worth

Today It Is self, the appeals OF life

where the human will may for day
be master, but that day ends In the
shadow that has engulfed all the yes

grave import to the life OF this lit

NEW YEAR THOUGHTS
TREATED IN SERMON
Entrance of the Children of Israel Into

of the New Year and Its possibilities

part:
This is a part of the vision Joshua

and chosen assistant OF Moses. had
succeeded him to the leadership OF
the Children OF Israel. When but
three days journey from the promised
land. Moses sank in death, and the
charge OF the tribes devolved upon
Joshua. who had now led them across
the Jordan into the country they were
to conquer and possess. Behind
them was the wilderness-the scene OF
hardship and trial. Before them was
the unexpIored. Close by were the
walls OF The CITY OF Jericho. The
warrior leader was alone under the
very shadow of it's grim fortilica tions
ponderlns the possible outcome. and
as he meditated there came the vis-
Ion that was TO hear for him an inn
portant message. So far. Joshua had
borne the burden without fainting,
but the end was not yet. Much lay
ahead. lie was now in fresh scenes
and amid new experiences What
would be the outcome?

CORA NJ. SODERBERG
LAID To FINAL REST
Services Held in Wilford
Ward of Granite Stake
Largely Attended.

Funeral services were held yesterday
afternoon at Wilford ward OF the Gran
ite stake for Mrs. Cora Maria Soderberg,
who died OF pulmonary tuberculosis last
Wednesday.
There was large gathering OF friends
at the services. the Wilford ward chapel
being filed to capacity. many acquaint
ances going out from Salt Lake to show
their respect. Bishop James d. Cummings
presided and was one OF the speakers as
was John w. White one OF his counselors.
Others who spoke were c. a. CarlquiSt
and John f. Forsberg of Salt Lake. the
latter speaking in the Swedish tongue on
account of the fact that so many persons
were present who We're unable TO thor
oughly understand the English language
The, fact that there was such large
attendance at the funeral was accounted
for in the eulogies and expressions OF
sympathy of all the speakers. They de-
scrlbed Mrs. Soderberg as having been OF
exalted character and loyable dlsposi-
ton, possessing honesty TO al high degree
and many other noble traits. They also
pointed to the supreme patience which
she had exhibited In face OF her afflc-
tion and the grief which had been her
portion in life.
Mrs. Soderberg was the young widow
OF Oscar w. Soderberg. They were mar
ried about fourteen months ago, and just
two weeks after the wedding day the
young man was accidentally killed by
falling from the roof OF the Utah Copper
mill at Garfield. Extreme grief follow
Ing this tragedy intensilied the other ar
Wednesday as a relief.
While Mrs. Soderberg who was a
daughter OF Conrad T. Bernstrom of Will
ford ward, was yet a child her mother
died; and the spea kers drew attention 10
all these circumstances in describing the
sum OF her tribulation.
