Scores Seekers of Worldly

CLOSE OF EPISCOPAL MISSION

THE devotees OF pleasure are con-
stsntiy seeking something new. and to-
day they are even going back to the
pleasures and fashions Of twenty-five and
fifty years ago, because they have COM
pleted the cycle and can find nothing new
with which to smuse themselves" Thus
spoke Rev. John Henry Hopkins. d. D..
Of Chicago. in his sermon at Trinity
Cathedral Sunday morning.
Rev. Hopinks preached both morning
and evening sermons as the final work
here in connection with the nationwide
mission.
In the morning sermon he advised his
congregation to put Christ in their hearts
instead OF the pleasures of the world. He
pointed out that there is no satisfaction
in worldly pleasures. as each succeeding
one only calls for another.
Put Pleasures Aside.
BLESSED are the pure In heart, for
they shall see God" was the passage he
sought to interpret. "Only those who
put pleasures to one side and put Christ
in the center of their heart" he said
shall see God in the true sense"
He characterized the impure hearts
