Church Crowded To
Hear MIR. Handy

The Presbyterian Church was
crowded last Sunday morning to
hear Hon. L. Irving Handy's latest
lecture, "The Great Love-" Mr..
Handy, in his inimitable way gain
ed the close attention of his hear
ers with his first words in which he
asked, eff you knew as much about
me as I know about myself, and if
l knew as much about you as you
know about yourself, I wonder if
we would speak to each other on
the street?'
The speaker eloquently dwelt
upon the unspeakable majesty of
God, and of his fruitless search for
a creature as far beneath him as
God is above him. "The Great
Miracle of the Book" he said, "is
that God would give His only Son
for creatures so far below him as
you and | are! !" Mr.. Handy gave
vivid description Of the wondrous
beauty Of the world from the sum-
mltS or the Alps IN SWltZerlanQ,
comparing the snow covered noun
tains to the wonderful cloud effects
which last, however, only for few
minutes, and likening the Great
Miracle Of the Book to the enduring
rock foundation which makes the
mountains eternal.
Mr.. Handy closed with the story
from the Old Testament of Aaron
lifting up the serpent in the wilder
ness, declaring what the brazen SER
pent had been to the Israelites, the
crucifled Saviour is to sin-poison-
ed world.
Beautiful anthems were render
by special choir.
