RED MEN MEMORIAL
SERVICES YESTERDAY
Rev. E. E. ShoufIer breaches
Excellent Sermon on

A good crowd attended the First

when special memorial services were
held in connection with the Red

was furnished 10y the chorus choir.
Rev. r. T.. .Shouher. pastor of the
church, delivered the address in the
course of which he said THE book
of remembrance which bears the
record of our lives. contains at least
three calls 70 service and as many
responses, if we have served we'll.
We are called 70 be men. We are
called TO exercise our rights in gov
eminent and we are called 10 phys
ical and spiritual responsibility. Man
was evidently Gods first and last
thought He was created a physical
and spiritual being. In this respect
man is the product of Gods crown
ing workmanship.
In the exercise Of the various
functions of government. men form
themselves into various groups the
family the tribe. the clan or the
state, but when they respond TO the
call of Sod, they organize them
selves into social groups known as
churches and fraternal societies
where brotherhood is the dominant
note. II was by means of national
events that the religious truths OF
moral judgment and justice were
born into world cor seriousness. 1t
was through the power of fraternal-
ism that the God OF our religion was

ness and of grace.
Church Needs F'rafcrnaI spirit.
"Fraternalism has ever been and
ousht always TO be "A handmade of
religion The church and the lodge
are not antsgonistic TO each other,
they are really compliments of each
other. They may overlap i'm their
aims There is certainly a demand
for both kinds OF work as repro
scented by both the church and the
lodge The church needs more Of
the fraterual spirit of the lodge and
the lodge needs more of the evan
seistic spirit of the church.
I'VE may erect many memorials
to stand as witnesses of mans great
ness. But the elements will soon
crumble the material TO dust, for
there is here on earth no continuing
city Tradition and historical data
may make up a great book or re
mem brauce. but the bonds of hui
man brotherhood and fraternal SYM
pathy can be made permanent ard
lasting only as they are moored 10
the eternal principle Of righteous
ness"
