SERMON TO TRAVELLERS.
Members of Post L. Attend Service il,
Second Presbyterian Church
Last Night.

The annual service of the Travel
ers' Protective Association was held
in the Second Presbyterian Chruch
last night, and the pastor, Rev. DR..
John Lee Allison, took as mis- theme,
human vocation in its relation to the
divine glory. His text was Cor.
x:31. "Do all to the glory of God. "
He said in part: All human activi-
ties should contribute to the welfare
of society, the uplift Of humanity and
the glory of God. The speaker refer
red to the division of the sacred and
seculars, but he claimed that all voca-
tons, professions and pursuits should
be consecrated to worthy and noble
ends. The speaker referred to men
whom God had endowed with the
power to get wealth, and said business
men are called to magnify their cal
ling and to do nothing to mar the
world. Every stroke Of honest toll is
making for the kingdom Of righteous
ness and peace. Money, he claimed, is
a power for good when honestly ac-
quired and wisely used.
DR.. Allison closed by appealing to
men to be messengers bearing high
and worthy ideals wherever they go,
and urged them 10 consecrate secular
calling to Gods glory.
Special musical features of the
evening were an anthem by the
choir, Il was glad when they said un-
to me" and vocal solo by Miss Lii
liam G. Allison, "Just for Today"
