SERMON TO SENIOR
CLASS LAST NIGHT
DR.. HAMlLL TALKS TO HIGH
SCHOOL CLASS ABOUT THE
LARGER LIFE"
SAYS THEY CANNOT LIVE 1T
WITHOUT TAKING JESUS IN
TO THEIR LIVES.
TRINITY M. E. CHURCH, SOUTH,
PACKED TO OVERLOOKING
TO HEAR SERMON.

The Rev. DR.. II. p. Hamfll pastor
of Trinity NJ. r. church, south deliv-
cred the baccalaureate sermon to the
graduating class of the Martinbsurg
Tigh School last night. The auditor
ium of Trinity church was packed
tc overlooking, chairs beng used in
the aisles to accommodate the large
audience that gathered to hear the
sermon.
The graduates, teachers and mem
bers of the board of education enter
ed the church at o'clock, and occup-
led the center block of pews near the
pulpit The conventional cap and
gown were worn by the class.
The congregational services began
with a hymn, and the Scripture les
son was taken from ST John. 8The
choir sang very beautifully "By the
Waters of Babylon" and following
prayer by DR.. Hamill again sang Zion
City OF our God"
DR.. Hamill then started his SER
mon, taking his text from ST. John
1910, 81 am come that they might
have life, and that they might have
it more abundantly.' His theme was
''The Larger Life
The doctor discussed the purpose
of an education, which he said was
20 enable men and women to live a
larger life. He spoke of the high
school, the academy, the college and
the university training, explaining
that they were for the purpose of
leading all to live larger lives; to help
all to be more useful in their callings
and live such a life that they will be
respected and regarded 'as persons
who are qualified for service.
He said we are not only intellectual
beings but religioust beings, and.
therefore, it is the duty of all to live
that larger life, which is found only
by trusting in the Lord and giving
ourselves wholly to Him. With Him
we cannot live the larger life that
is required us. The physician goes
forth to heal and cure the sick, the
teacher is to instruct and he preach
err is to help men and women in their
tSAiSiN uo IfSo' L nest GduiuSS are
high and closely related Il
To enable a person to live that
larger life Jesus must be taken into
It, and He will lift us to it, and will
give US a right spirit of life by taking
Jesus into it,
Discussing commencement, he asked
the question, where will you end ?'
You are now 4mmencing, but where
will you end? Is the end of your life
at death? 1t is not The child that
only lives two days has place in
this world that no man can erase
Jesus offers a bridge over the chasm
between this world and eternity. 1t
would be pity if you had no aspir.
alton for larger life. You will know
no larger field except through Jesus
Christ. The doctor urged the class
to seek permanent things, and to
seek them was only to find Christ
and have Him guide and direct.
The doctors sermon was unusually
strong, and his appeals were especial
ly effective. The large audience en-
joyed his discourse, it being regarded
as a masterpiece, full of excellent
food for thought and made quite al
impression.

GERMAN COAL SUPPLY
IS WIDELY DISCUSSED


Berlin, Nov. 80 (by wireless to Say
ville)-The question of Germanys
coal supply is being widely discussed
in the newspapers The German mines
now are providing coal for railroad
service to a much greater extent than
in peace times, as a large number OF
German railway cars now are being
operated outside of the country in
Poland, the Balkans and other terri
tory within the hands of the central
powers. The consumption of coal is
increased by the fact that now no
German locomotives or trains are idle
and because German industries are
busy to their utmost capacity.
To permit this increased use. Of coal
on the railways and in the industries
it has been proposed to limit its u.s.
for purposes of amusement and lux
uries. It is planned to close the sa-
looms earlier in the evening and to
limit electrical advertisements in the
streets of cities It is not proposed
to close the theaters.
