 Rev. R. R. Graham of Christ church took his text from John l.: 46, And Ma thaniel said unto him. Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him. Come and see. The speaker said in part: We all are subject to prejudice: if we are not careful we find ourselves saying as Nathaniel did. Can any good things come out of Nazareth? How often are great men discounted because they are from a nearby small town or because of sectional or national prejudice. An outgrowth of this prejudice is some times shown by individuals working for the good of a community or polit- ical party rather than for the good of the country. Americans first should always he our thought and Bostonians pubIicans second. This broad minded freedom from prejudice leads us to face religion sQuarely and decide our questions concerning it fairly.
 MT. Graham then told the story con cerning the stone which Joseph used sa pillow and which he placed uP- right as a pillar to mark the place where God communicated with man and as place of aDproach to God. But Christ has taught us that the ave nue of approach to God is always open and that it is not matter of churches or particular places of worship which man has set apart but a matter aT our, actual vital communion with God through life of service and self sac rifice. Let us be Christians first and denominationalists second.
